Hiking Shoe - GoLite Spike Trail

admin July 13, 2007

GoLite Spike Tail This shoe from GoLite is the reason for my recent trip to REI. I wanted to try it on, run, and climb on anything I could, to give it a thorough shake down, before I purchased ($115.00, REI). I was so disappointed…I tried on an 11,12 & 13, neither could I get to fit just right. Even with manipulating the fit with the included custom inserts (to adjust the insoles and fitting). It seemed like there was more room then necessary in the toe area. Another issue, which comes from the reason I originally got excited over this pair. The “Interlocking Trail Claws” seemed to be pushed up through my foot when I climbed on uneven ground. I can easily see this as being an issue on rocking ground. SO what did I get? After trying on 4 different pairs, each in 3 different sizes. I did buy a hiking shoe that I am very happy with!
