Your trail running shoe is extremely important. I’d argue the most important aspect of trail running. Not to dismiss trail running apparel, but the shoe is king. Running naked is not really an option, but more important in my humble opinion is the mens trail running shoe you choose.

My first choice happens to be the Adidas Men’s Megabounce. And there is the Adidas Women’s Megabounce as my fav womens trail running shoe.

I love this shoe mostly because of the following features. I just find adiPRENE to be one of the best absorbing materials that I’ve had on the bottom of my feet. It just gives really nicely without being spongy. The other thing I like is the BOUNCE ™ technology that has been newly introduced by Adidas and it works in a way that your momentum is used as energy to propel you forward as your heel to toe strikes the ground. Now I don’t know if this has been scientficaly proven but I’ll tell you that my last few runs in the Adidas Men’s Megabounce did seem to be noticeably easier. And I’m sure I’m not getting fitter.

So that my friends is my top choice for mens trail running shoe and womens trail running shoe. The Adidas Megabounce has one minor drawback, for me anyway. I’m just not really taken by the design of the shoe. Nevertheless it works. It has a great price point, and I love it. I’ll post a more detailed review soon.

Now get out there and go for a trail run.
