New Balance 604
The 604 has been discontinued. If you're looking for something new, check out the best trail running shoes for 2024.
I use this model as my trail hiking shoe. Really light comfy shoe that allows you to move fast with great balance. While traction on wet/mossy rocks is so-so, grip in all other conditions (including scrambling Vesper Peak in western Washington) has been great. Pretty much the most comfortable shoes I own straight from the box -- no break-in to speak of.
Being vegetarian, synthetic materials are a plus.
Materials: Synthetic
Break-in Period: 0
Price Paid: $63
Unlike my prior 700 series, the cushioning on this shoe is not nearly as good. It was comfortable at first, but if you want more cushioning in a wide width shoe for trails and around town, this isn't the one, IMHO.
Use: on road and light off road walking
Break-in Period: none
Weight: light
Price Paid: $49
