which innov8's are these?

[luke.porter]

Hi, could anyone tell me what these old innov8's are called, and what they are equivalent to now. Just tried using them again after years thinking they weren't comfortable, but they are actually pretty good without the footbed. Thanks for any help.
p.s. anyone know when the grin and bear it results will be out? Cheers, Luke.

Oh, I thought that pic was an old Terroc, thought the original Mudroc was a grey beastie like this

I seem to remember having both, the Terroc being good for walking and wearing down the pub, the Mudroc for heel-flagellation as above.

Definitely the original Mudroc 290 that. Apart from anything else, the outsole is a give away. The gray one was the next incarnation. Can't say I ever had any heel problems with mine and I know some took advantage of the ability to mould the heel cup to their foot shape by steaming it. Like the Terroc 330, which was a good general trail shoe, the life expectancy of the uppers was (and still is even on the newer version) a bit on the low side, which is just about acceptable on a very lightwieght shoe, but not on the Teroc which is positively clumpy by todays standards!
