Trail Running: How to Choose Shoes || REI

A good set of shoes is the one piece of gear every trail runner needs. There’s a lot to consider, but because the most important part of any shoe is the fit, it’s a good idea to head into your local REI to get a fit assessment before you buy. This video covers the different types of trail running shoes, how to pick the right amount of cushion and understanding heel-to-toe drop. Watch, buy and then get out there.
Come into your local REI store to get a fit assessment, ask our experts your questions and pick out the rest of your gear.

You ALWAYS want to heel strike....

[@TraumaER]

RedbeardMcLintock you obviously never ran track or ever really ran fast. You do that heel strike against me while I toe strike and crush you.

[@walkermorales337]

RedbeardMcLintock we were always told to strike mid foot to the fore foot area when running quickly
