Inov-8 Men's Backpack

Bought for a fell race in Snowdonia, and use them for cross country races and the occasional muddy parkrun - absolutely wonderful shoes, my favourite. Excellent grip on trail surfaces, but you won't want to use them for road or hard surfaces - the plugs are very aggressive. Low drop and super lightweight so you feel totally in control, especially when flying down hills. Become a bit of an inov8 fanboy after these!Just one note of caution - they are a very tight fit. You likely want to go a size up from your normal road shoe size. Try them out in real life before you go out on the trail with them!
