I do most of trail runs on Mt. Diablo in Northern California. The trails vary from fire roads to technical single track with steep grades and few switchbacks. On Diablo, you earn your summits. On the trails, there are loose rock and sandy soil which makes for some nasty falls if you don't have good traction. The Wildhorse 5 has good size lugs that provide excellent grip on a variety of trails. The sole is not as aggressive as a Salomon Speedcross but the Nikes are much more comfortable on hardpan or on the street getting to the trailhead. The rock plate is adequate and I rarely feel the rocks underneath. The cushion is excellent as well, even though its not as plush as a Hoka. I have found that the high stack height of the Hoka makes it a poor choice on technical downhill trails. But, my favourite thing about the WIldhorse 5 is the wide rounded toe box. Plenty of room for the toes and in the heat of the afternoons, there is plenty of room and can avoid getting the black toes. At $ 110.00 it's a bargain when compared to the $ 150.00 and up for Hoka's and Salomon shoes.
