The Salomon's might be nice, but all that fucking Rudy Project spamming has made me decide not to buy any no matter how good they actually are.

 

Say no to spamming!

 

Not familiar with the Rudy and Salomon spam, what's going on there?

 

Either way I like those shoes and I am a douche, even if I'm not a Rudy douche.

I picked up some Adidas turf cleats. Very pleased with them so far.

You wear shoes during a match?

Those must be awesome grippy.  GM's wear them.

The Inno-8 Mudclaws are fine on hard surfaces, the cleats are softer. and they dont look like football shoes

 

WTF??? those look exactly like football shoes.

Why do good sports shoes look like they just got shat out of an alien drag queen?

I once paid an alien drag queen to shit on my chest.

 

 

 

 

 

But that was a long time ago, I've moved on.

You may not get to wear shoes on the street....stop being such a gamer and HTFU.  Shoot it barefoot and don't bitch about the brass lying around.

I got a pair of Inov-8 Roclite 295s about two years ago for trail running. The model number comes from the weight: 295 g each, which is fairly light. They're great for trail running with good traction and work well enough for USPSA. But I'm not convinced that the lightweight design is the best option for being on your feet for hours on end.

Has anyone ever tried these?

Like the speed cross but with spikes as well. Or are they against the rules?

Edit: I did search of the rule book and did not find anything pertaining to it.

I've used the merrell trail gloves, nb minimus, and now the vivobarefoot neos. all of them are minimalist type shoes that weigh even less. All of them were super comfortable for being on my feet all day. This despite the conventional wisdom that a tubby bastard like myself would need more cushioning.

Fit probably matters more than weight.

I am not sure what the big deal with shoes is, not like we are trying to steal second base
Find something that has an aggressive tread and is comfortable and work on your transitions to save time, not your your footwear

I've another model of theirs with spikes and I've not found any substantial difference in traction vs any other threaded shoes during matches. They do feel slightly grippier on iced surfaces while walking but that doesn't make me feel particularly secure to run on ice.

Now that you're going to be running around like Chris S, properly grippy shoes might matter more than you were used to.
