Men's Rucky Chucky
Reviewed by R, Jun 22, 2008
Went on a 12km trail run in the woods yesterday. Terrain was a mix of hardpack fire roads and single track with lots of roots and rocks at 5,000 ft elevation.
I can't compare these shoes to other trail shoes I've had because this is the first time I've actually used a pair on a run."
