New Balance Fresh Foam X More Trail v3 Reviews

They used the More Trail v3 as their previous favorite trail shoe and describe it as very comfy with tank-like cushioning.

They enjoy the soft max-cushion feel because it protects their knees.

A new dimension of cushioning for mountain run-walkers who prioritise comfort, beginners and heavier or wide-footed runners. The sole worked fully in testing and drains well on hard terrain. Ventilation was lacking in summer heat.

A very runnable behemoth: top-of-class cushioning (44 mm measured), solid durable traction and plenty of room for long-run swelling. Ideal for road-to-trail or 25+ mile runs. Low-volume feet may struggle with lockdown, and the wide, tall midsole is heavy (305 g).

Cushioning and bounce kept her legs fresh on a long run, and the 5 mm Vibram lugs grip across terrain, including some road. She couldn't get enough ground feel on challenging terrain, and the stack felt unstable on steep downhills. Yes for long, comfortable runs.

Rated A/A- overall, personal A-. An extremely comfortable, stable-neutral max trail shoe for long easy efforts and casual wear. It is too big and heavy for anything fast, and he wishes it were lighter. The thick Vibram outsole should last far longer than most max trail shoes.

Twenty km in, a runner finds the More Trail v3 highly cushioned but without bounce.

On a 4 mile mixed-surface run in their first trail shoes, the lugs did not bother them on asphalt. They found the cushion and fit similar to their Nimbus 25 and liked the colorway.
