salomons are ok for dry rocky trails but if it's even slightly damp or muddy you might aswell wear ice skates

Due to "issues" with fell running shoes (i.e. struggling to find a non-pain inducing pair) I ran this year's Tour of Pendle in an old pair of Addias Response trail shoes and got round OK. I figure anything trail-style might suit my running style.
Mind you, haven't tried Walshes yet. I'm sure that time will come. And I've heard good things about the Gladiator as well.
having considered responses on here, and from listening to other runners i plumped for a pair of wave harriers
i am now a happy camper (so far) with the shoes. therefore i am sorted now
Gladiators for races in steep/horrid conditions, although i did a 20+ miler over frozen moorland yesterday with no problems at all
wave harriers for anything else, training, long dry races etc
Hard Work, Hard Training and Suffering...Race Easy
Welcome to the club of the converted! Absolutely no probs with my pair.
Quite comfy although trail shoes would have been better this weekend on all that frozen peat!
Chuffed to bits with my pair although I find they stay wetter for longer owing to the material used in construction but that's neither here nor there.
Acid test - a night time recce to come tomorrow night so will put them through their paces once again.
