The Blue Board

For sprinting and cutting (cross trainer type) or straight ahead jogging/running?

Great options there. I am a NB minimus wearer myself.

theFightingtide, I would suggest if you are not used to minimal shoes to start with low volume work before logging tons of miles that you may be used to while wearing highly constructed shoes.

Thanks for the replies y'all. Mynameis- mostly just jogging/running. I will do some sprints everynow and then to change it up though.

Stoptothink- out of the first, second, and fourth choices you listed which would work the best for 80% trail? I read the description and i think they all said multi surface but.i want youropinion as well.

Personal tastes, they'd all do the trick. If at all possible I'd attempt to try them on in person. I like Sauconys personally as Hattoris are my go to shoe http://www.saucony.com/store/SiteController/saucony/productdetails?productId=4-106900&skuId=***4********20126-5*M100&catId=cat10004&showDefaultOption=true

I know a couple of long distance guys that swear by Newtons fwiw

I like Vibrams, but I like my NB's too.

Per Hank Haney, Tiger Woods says Army Boots.

Im also gonna find an old surplus dealer for those to prepare

Like the Minimus have the first version and still holding up.
