Discount Montrail Men's FluidFeel Trail Running Shoe

Customer Ratings:

I have now purchased two pairs of this shoe, one from another seller and the second from Amazon. First let me say that I love the fit it cradles the foot nicely without being too tight. When my first pair started to come apart on the outside of the shoe where the foot creases during push off, I thought, "Well, I've put in 400 or so tough trail miles with a lot of climbing, I guess that's enough. Prior to these, I had had a pair of Montrail Mountain Masochists that I must have put 800 1,000 miles on! Too many I know, but they lasted really well. I ordered a second pair of Fluidfeels as they fit so comfortably, and these ones have split in exactly the same place on the outside at the foot crease. Except these ones have done no more than 250 miles. That's just not enough out of a shoe, especially when I am already going through a pair of shoes every couple of months with high mileage. So, 2 stars for very poor value for an otherwise comfortable shoe.

First let me sayI love these shoes.

They have great cushion and grip. I've ran in rain, snow, mud, etcthey stood up to everything and performed well. They do well on moderately technical trails and long stretches of road/ hard packed trail. Comfortable all over with plenty of room in the toe boxnever felt stiff like trail shoes sometimes do. Could not ask for more.

But...

6 months into having these shoes and running in them once to twice a weekthe upper near pinky toe area blew out completely. tried patching them up with some moleskin but it was a no go. I had to talk to local run store I bought them at and luckily got a new pair. I also agree somewhat with what the previous poster said about the construction of the inner. There were definitely some rough spots. Felt like some of the stiff plastic was uncovered. I took the laces out and trimmed it down and never had an issue.

Bottom line: great shoe that has it's issues. I hope the next version has some improvements in the areas I mentionedneeds more of a focus on quality. Gave it three stars because no shoe should blow out after six months of moderate wear.

Definitely like the fit and comfort. Good cushioning support. Alot brighter than expected but with a lace change they should be fine

Honest reviews on Montrail Men's FluidFeel Trail Running Shoe

This is a nicely made shoe with good volume in the toe box. The sole is a dense, light, blown rubber running from heal to toe. The top of the shoe is a weave which allows the foot to breath. There is a good solid feel with the ground. This is increased by the heal to toe elevation which is very moderate. Styling is good and it appears a quality shoe. I returned the shoe because its straight design did not accommodate my pronation and I was looking for a more active sole. If your looking for a rather traditional sneaker feel to your shoe I would give these a try.

As soon as I put these highly rated shoes on my immediate impression was these are the worst feeling shoes I have ever put on. What is wrong? What is wrong is that the tongue is poorly designed and sewed onto the inside of the shoe so that it digs into the top side of your foot. The material is not finished and it is very rough. Thicker socks help somewhat, but.

Not only were these shoes mad in China but they must have been designed there too.
