I am to start training for a mainly off road ultra March. It will be over rocky or hard packed mountains with a little road, maybe 10% tarmac. If it rains like it did last time, it will be sticky clay.
The problem I have is my training will be tarmac as much as rock, and probably wet.Though I can still get the elevation in. The last time I did it in montrail continentals and have used salmon something or others before.
I’ve been looking at
Inov-8 Roclite 312 GTX
Salomon XA Pro 3D Ultra 2 GTX
Inov-8 Tailroc
brooks cascadia
I need a large open toe area, low ish heel, not springy, hard wearing and easily adjustable.
Anyone have experience with the shoes above?
