Brooks' best trail shoe in years — a PEBA-midsole racer with a unique U-shaped plate, Michelin Megagrip Elite outsole, and a road-adjacent energy that works for both racing and everyday trail training.
Best for: Race day trail running and daily training crossover; runners who want a light, secure, energetic high-stack trail racer

An innovative long-distance trail racer that finally brings Brooks into the tip-of-the-spear ultra racing category; scored 14 out of 15 and is the shoe Taylor would reach for to finish a 50 to 100 mile race.
Best for: 50 to 100 mile ultra trail racing where comfort, efficiency, and stability matter more than extreme toe-off pop
The reviewer's pick between the two — softer and more comfort-oriented for long distances with a much more functional fit on technical terrain.
Best for: Trail ultra racing across moderate and technical terrain where lockdown and long-haul comfort matter
