Top Trail Running Shoes: Pearl Izumi
Lace up your favorite running shoes…. *(scroll towards the bottom to see which one is my favorite)
And Run to your favorite trail….
Here in Austin, Tx the trails can be a little rough which makes having a good trail shoe essential. I’ve been running in both Pearl Izumi EM Trail M2v3 as well as the Trail N2. I definitely have a favorite of the two, but both styles stand strong.
Women’s Pearl Izumi EM Trail M2v3 Running Shoe:
- Comfortable fit allowing space for forefoot splay and swelling
- This is a good shoe for over-pronation running gait
- ESS forefoot rock plates help protect feet against roots and rocks
- Carbon rubber outsoles for traction
- While not a lightweight minimal shoe, it’s still a light shoe
