Review on πŸƒ Carbon Men's Sportiva Mutant Backcountry Running Shoes for Optimal Performance by Jack Ngo

Revainrating 4 out of 5

One of the best trail running shoes on the market

The Mutant shoe is very similar to the old C-Lite, which means a glove-like fit that's adjustable, snug, and cushioned for use on the trail as well as on the Street runs great but front bumper designed much better. It's very sticky with an aggressive profile, so it's also great for scree running, boulder jumping, or scree climbing. The high collar keeps sand out, while the overlapping tongue lacing system wraps your foot perfectly. Another plus is the neutral feel and outsole flexibility to let you dance over rough terrain while providing underfoot protection. All of this contributes to a high level of confidence in your running, allowing you to forget your running shoes and focus on your technique and the wonders around you. fit. I usually run shoes with a 0-2mm drop and was concerned about an 11mm drop, but that's not a problem. So don't let that put you off trying a pair as my running is improving in these shoes. The picture shows that the shoe does not have a wrist strap, but has one that helps when putting the shoes on.
