Ah well. I'll just have to trash my current shoes and end up totally barefoot. That'll show em. (or is that another thread...?)

The Speedcross3`s a mighty good shoe people, alot better than the speedcross2.....

Much better grip & stability....

SC3 and X-Talon tread....

you could get 2 pairs of Walsh's for a pair of Soloman's,I doubt there worth double the price of Walsh's

Everybodys entitled to their own opinion Andy, we all look/want for different things in our shoes...

Did try on some PB Elites at my local Go outdoors but found them far too stiff, grip looked great though...

Compared to a lot of the 'new generation' fell shoes, Walshes do feel a bit stiff, but after running in Mudclaw 270s for a while I find the firmness of Walshes gives me extra confidence. They have their issues but as a serious fell racing shoe it's still hard to beat the PB Racer. They are starting to look like a bargain nowadays as well... £100+for Salomons??? Come on..

may be you are right FH, but I don't want them as a lightweight Fell shoe I was thinking more of long mountain races/rounds, They have a lot more protection around the toe and look well made. It's really to replace my old Highlanders but some thing I can do the longer more rugged races in?, Tried 3 different shoe since my highlanders and non match up to it's ruggedness and performance, saw these in a shop and thought HMMMMMMmmm?

Walsh Spirit Peak? I've heard a number of very good reports about them.

[The devil's own]

So anyone got a pair yet? Be interesting to hear an unbiased real world review.

I remember hearing that even the sponsored/paid athletes prefered to race in other makes of shoes.
