Overall Impression of the KSO Treks
After owning the KSO Treks for almost a year,Gucci Women Boots Brown/Beige 005, 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,Gucci Men Sneakers Low Line Black/Blue 154, 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, especially for cooler temperature running,the five fingers, 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,cheap womens sneakers, 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,Gucci Men Sneakers High Line White/Red 032, and even though my feet got wet from some slushy snow right away, 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,gucci bags sale, snow,Gucci Handbags Sandy/Brown 008, ice,gucci purses for cheap, 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,gucci shoes for men cheap, on the proper terrain,mens gucci, because they are so lightweight.
What KSO Treks are Not Great For
Although the Trek has good traction on dry trails,foot gloves, they do not have the best traction on wet terrain, 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,gucci mens shoes, 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,mens fendi sneakers, although this was not the purpose of their design,luxurysteps, 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,Gucci Men Sneakers Low Line White 116, compared to a conventionally thick-soled trail running shoe.
