Low differential for a road shoe. The Hoka Challenger 7 shoe is a versatile trail shoe that is suitable for occasional road use, making it one of our favorite crossover shoes. It provides comfort and support for trail runners tackling technical terrain but can joyfully adapt to the road that gets you to the trailhead.

3. 4. 5. Bottom Line. A daily trainer that can handle most runs, the Novablast 4 is fun and extremely comfortable. An all-around standout that can handle easy days as comfortably as hard workouts. Bouncy, responsive and well-cushioned, this shoe is performance-oriented but still versatile.
3.25 in. Last Board/Shank. ADV-C chassis. The Salomon X Ultra 4 Gore-Tex is a solid choice for hikers looking for a lightweight, supportive, grippy, and waterproof shoe. The X Ultra 4 is the latest in a long line of dependable shoes from Salomon that fit well thanks to a Sensifit system that locks the foot in place.
Our Verdict. The Hoka Mach 5 is light, well-cushioned, and comfortable, making it one of our favorite do-it-all running shoes. Thanks to the Profly+ midsole, cushioning underfoot is smooth and plush while still responsive at faster paces. We were impressed with this model's ability to go fast or slow with equal comfort.
32% Drynamix Polyester, 32% Polyamide, 30% Mohair, 4% Microfiber, 2% Elastane. Cushioning Level. Heavy. The Balega Blister Resist Quarter is an excellent performer for a myriad of reasons. The synthetic construction feels soft and comfortable against the skin, with padding exactly where you need it.
Shoes designed specifically for trail running or hiking tend to perform best in this metric since they are designed to encounter varied surface conditions. The natural FiveFingers design of the Vibram V-Trail 2.0 certainly allows your toes to grip the ground with accuracy, and the tread is designed to grip the trail through all conditions.
