Trail Running gear reviews
From trail shoes/packs/race vests/clothing & much more, I’ve tested products from Inov-8, The North Face, Montane, Salomon & La Sportiva to name but a few.
Living in the highlands of Scotland means i’m able to test the gear to it’s extreme, most of the time on my own & sometimes in large training groups with the brands themselves.
