Overall Impression of the KSO Treks After owning the KSO Treks for almost a year,ed hardy vodka, they have become an integral part of my trail running footwear. I don’t wear them for every run but they are a fantastic tool for strengthening the foot, lower leg muscles,slogan t shirts, and improving agility and proper running form. They do take some time to get used to putting on and getting the correct toe into the appropriate toe pocket. The kangaroo leather is great,ed hardy t shirts men, especially for cooler temperature running, even after they get wet. They fit snugly with their full-footed upper and Velcro strap adjustment. I really appreciate that the shoe is the shape of the foot as opposed to narrow toe-boxed conventional trail running shoes. Another important attribute for trail running is their lack of interfering cushioning to ground feel,replica ed hardy sunglasses, this is especially important for trail running because terrain can vary widely in both traction and surface contour between every step. What KSO Treks are Great For The first time I ran in the Treks it was on snow,ed hardy swimwear kamikazi sales, and even though my feet got wet from some slushy snow right away,ed hardy coats, my feet stayed warm throughout the run. They have good grip and I really enjoy running with them on hard-packed snow trails. I also run in a pair of original KSOs and the Treks have far better grip and are more enjoyable to run in on trails. They have great traction on dry or wet grass, snow,led zeppelin t shirts, ice, as well as any dry surface whether it be man-made or natural. They also perform well on trails both uphill and downhill. I do enjoy running and racing in them,designer mens shirts, on the proper terrain,ed hardy men leather jacket, because they are so lightweight. What KSO Treks are Not Great For Although the Trek has good traction on dry trails,ed hardy short dresses + animal print, they do not have the best traction on wet terrain,five fingers sale, especially slippery and/or deep mud. The lug design doesn’t provide enough traction for wet dirt deeper than a few millimetres. For this type of wet terrain, I would still trust the grip of a conventional trail running shoe over that of the Trek. I’ve also found that they are not that comfortable to run in on pavement because of the lugs,plus size long ed hardy dresses, although this was not the purpose of their design,ed hardy sunglasses, so not too surprising. I do tend to slow down on solid rocky terrain as well because their relatively thin sole does not protect the foot if you are not being careful as to where you are placing your foot,extra long t shirts, compared to a conventionally thick-soled trail running shoe. |
