Men's Puregrit 5 Trail-Running Shoes

Used these for a 20mi OCR, basically out of the box. They were fantastic. Amazing grip, light, and drained very well.

The shoe was uncomfortable and they caused me to alter my step enough to aggravate my slightly unstable right knee. I won a pair of Pure Grit 3s and they are very comfortable, the 5s laces stop very high on the shoe and cut into the top of my foot. I returned them after 2 attempts at wearing them for a light run.

Perfect for work, the gym, and hitting the trails!

I was sent the Pure Grit 5 by Brooks as a replacement of the Pure Grit 4's that fell apart on me after two months of wearing. I also used a pair of Pure Grit 3 for two years of trail running and they are still in relatively good shape. I must say that the 5 are true to the series. They give you good trail feel while still providing some cushion from the rock and roots, they are also still quite nimble for the technical stuff. I have put on about 75 trail running miles over 6 runs all of them muddy all of them wet and the PG5s have performed amazingly, they dry quickly, they grip while wet and they protect my feet. My only compliant is the common one about the tongue being weird, once you get it in the right spot it is fine but it is a bit weird. Also they are not quite as comfy as the PG4 but the PG5 is not falling apart so I would say it is a improvement.

every one is complementing on it, looks so stylish and very comfy too. Love the new color too, I think I'll get my 2nd pair.

Had same shoe, Puregrit 4, and upper outside toe area failed at about 150 miles. The shoes store replaced them with the "5". The change from the "honeycomb" upper to a solid overlay hopefully with solve that. I like the tongue design of the old shoe better. More substantial and cushioning. The new design is paper thin and the two lace loops on tongue are annoying. One was fine. The shoe does feel good and works well on the trails. I was looking for a more "minimal" support shoe with out going extreme minimalist which I tried and felt it was too far of a swing from the over supported running shoes we have been subject to for decades.

Love then but have noticed I have to retie street about an hr if running because too loose. Worried they'll wear after too short of time. It's been 1 month and gaping a little. But I live that my feet don't hurt and that they are navy blue. Too bad I had to buy mens but I think the wider.cut allows my toes more room.but ankle too much
