Having done some reading into some shoes today and having a look what's on offer at two retailers, I think I am going to try out the following low cut trail shoes:
- Merrell Moab3 GTX: I already have the same model, but a mid model, so I am well aware of the comfort of the shoe. It has a TC5+ Vibram sole, which strangely is not listed on Vibram's website.
- La Sportiva TX5 GTX: A low cut shoe with a leather upper and a Vibram Megagrip sole.
- La Sportiva Spire GTX: Really like the looks of this one and it comes with a Vibram XS Trek sole.
As far as the La Sportiva shoes are concerned, I need to ensure that they do fit my feet as most Italian brands don't.
I also opting only to fit models that have VIbram soles. I might be sacrificing some flexibility for durability.
My main application are mountain day hikes, not necessarily on paths, crossing rocky terrain. When solo, I tend to go fast downhill. Shoes need to cope.
