Great shoe if you have typical runner bunions, thanks to the wide toe box. I like that the mountain racer is not a zero drop shoe, but a little more minimal than other popular trail shoes. They are the best mountain running shoe to combine cushion, and a firm sole that feels stable and is tough enough for rocky, single track terrain. The mountain racer can hold up to high mileage and variable terrain, without breaking down the structure of the shoe, or wearing out the materials around the forefoot. This is a true shoe for heavy trail use as it combines comfort, function and durability. The price is competitive and honest. The mountain racer will last longer than most other trail shoes I've tried.
The only real downside to these shoes has been the color choices. However, having said that, the 2023 version has had the two best color options yet. In the past they've seemed to be on the boring side, but that is more of a personal choice that others might not care about.
I have gotten these shoes whenever I can. Durability means a lot, as well as toe space, comfort. On these three points they are excellent! I have never had a problem with them. When they do start to fall apart, they are falling apart from use; not from shady/failing construction materials/methods one week of daily use. Traction isn't super crazy like some other shoes iv used where if a spot touches a bolder your shoe will stick. Take that with a grain of salt, I dont like extra grippy shoes as I have better balance than most. But if your hopping from log to log or rock to rock you're not going to slip around like in street trainers.
