    This product is for…

    Runners who mix road, gravel, and non-technical trail in the same outing, including ultra-distance athletes doing 100-milers and multi-day events. Narrow to medium feet tend to fit well; wider feet may need a half to full size up.

    Worth noting…

    Size up half to a full size to account for foot swelling on long efforts; the toe box runs roomy. Not suited for rocky or highly technical trails — multiple hosts flag it explicitly as a gravel/buffed-singletrack shoe.
