PositiveA true trail racer that finally matches its road counterparts, and the first successful adaptation of Adizero tech to trails. At $220 it undercuts the Ultrafly and Tecton X 3.

PositiveThe best trail racer he has tested and the closest to a road super shoe: comfortable for 30 ultra miles even as a heel striker. The narrow heel and midfoot felt less secure on rocky Chamonix descents than the Ultrafly.

PositiveOn a 4.3-mile hilly trail run the Agravic Speed Ultra felt like a stiffer Adios Pro 3 for trails: a minute per mile faster than their normal pace.

Positive110 km in an early pre-release pair, mostly on dry, runnable forest trails, including 50 km of an 80 km ultra in about 4 hours, a hard progression hour and a 15-mile easy run. They found the fit comfortable and true to size, with no heel slip and a breathable upper, and a bouncy midsole that feels fast. Grip is decent on dry ground but not for deep mud, and stability is lower, so they would take technical descents carefully. A strong pick for racing on good trails.
Runners find the Agravic Speed Ultra fast on smooth, non-technical trails and it gives a strong, propulsive ride. The dominant complaint is blisters, especially under the arches and at the heel, often blamed on a stiff upper. It is also unstable on rocky or technical terrain, and some struggle with lockdown.
