Yeah that one's been out a while.

Ridiculous.

That said, i bit the bullet with my last fell shoe purchase and got a pair of those graphene x-talons. Whether i'm just getting a bit better on my feet and it's actually coincidence, i don't know, but the grip has appeared to be superb. Even wore them in the National XC, which as anyone who knows Parliament Hill will know it is an utter quagmire.
