The British firm presents this Trailroc model, with a weight of 255 grams and a drop of 6 millimeters, as a shoe recommended for beginners and lightweight runners who want to have a first contact with the modality of trail running.
This Trailroc 255 model is designed for not too long distances, around 25 kilometers, both in competition and training on rocky and rough surfaces. These Inov-8 have medium cushioning in both the rear and front and acceptable flexibility. It is an agile shoe with good traction on wet terrain.
The sole is equipped with Dynamic Fascia Band technology, which supports the ligament of the sole and makes the trail runner run more efficiently by simulating the 'lathe effect'. In addition, it offers excellent wear resistance and good grip on loose stone surfaces.
The shoe fits very naturally to the foot due to its anatomical shape and has a larger toe box so that you can stretch the metatarsals. On the other hand, it is quite comfortable to wear, as it has hardly any seams on the inside and both its breathability and waterproofing are more than acceptable.
In short, these Trailroc 255 are perfect for those who do not want to complicate their lives when choosing trail running shoes because they know they will have good performance at a reasonable price.
