Comments about Inov8 Trailroc 236 Trail-Running Shoes - Women's:

I have been an avid runner for twenty years and run mostly on trails. I live in southwest Colorado where the trails are dry and often very rocky. The Inov-8 Trailroc 236's are exceptional in this terrain. They are very grippy, extremely comfortable minimalist shoes that are also plenty tough. I have found that for short road sections (1 or 2 miles) they are only slightly less comfortable than on trails because of the tread. I have never worn a more comfortable running shoe in my life, in fact. They were perfect right out of the box and required no breaking in. I am so won over by these shoes that I plan to purchase the 246's for longer runs. You can not go wrong by giving Inov-8's a try. I bought a half size bigger, since my toes hit the end in my usual size.

Comments about Inov8 Trailroc 236 Trail-Running Shoes - Women's:

I ordered this shoe because I already own the Inov8 X-talon 212, and this was my go-to winter trail runner for Western Washington. I was looking for a shoe that would perform in dryer conditions, was light, had good traction, enough support and protection, and was durable. This shoe fits the mold. It's incredibly comfortable right out of the box, and surprisingly light. I was also really impressed with the sticky rubber sole and couldn't wait to hit the mountains! I took them on a 25k training run with variable trail conditions. They were excellent in the rocks/roots, as well as on the flatter dirt-road sections. I felt incredibly light and fast going down the steep inclines and had no issues with traction. I did encounter one muddy section of the trail and definitely noticed the difference in the Trailrocs and my X-talons (X-talon is AMAZING in mud), but that is why I ordered these for dryer runs in rocky conditions for the summer. Overall I think these are awesome and a great shoe for experienced runners doing long distances or those just starting out on the trails. Inov8 makes an excellent product!!

Comments about Inov8 Trailroc 236 Trail-Running Shoes - Women's:

I bought these shoes as a lightweight hiking and trail running shoe. I've tried multiple trail running shoes over the years and find that the more cushioned kind tend to be too wide for my foot, causing the shoe to roll out from under my foot while I hike. These shoes aren't like that at all. They are the perfect width for my feet, and the small sole height keeps my foot firmly planted on the ground.

The metatarsal shanks protect the balls of my feet from sharp rocks wonderfully! I've worn barefoot shoes by other brands without a shank and could definitely tell the difference. I didn't feel any pain or discomfort after hiking along rough terrain in these shoes.

The colors are great too! Such a change from the grays and earth tones of traditional train runners.

So far, I've yet to find anything I don't like about these shoes!
