Here are three key features to consider when selecting
the right trail running shoes.
Lug Depth
A higher number lug is for wet, muddy, and rocky
terrain. Lower lug values are better for
road-to-trail situations.
Drop
A higher drop value provides less ground feel and more
protection, a lower drop value provides more
ground feel. The lower the value, the closer you
get to a “barefoot” trail runner.
Cushion
Higher cushioning is recommended for more
aggressive terrain and long runs. Less cushioning
will provide a very close-to-the-ground feeling.
