One appreciative aspect of most barefoot trail running shoes is that despite having a meatier outsole equipped aggressive tread and lugs and a thicker, more rock-protective upper, they are still fully functional enough to be barefoot-worthy for you to easily uphold an efficient, safe forefoot running stride.

"I believe the forefoot strike is the engine of endurance running..."
BSc Neurobiology; MSc Biomechanics candidate, ultra minimalist runner & founder of RunForefoot. I was a heel striker, always injured. I was inspired by the great Tirunesh Dibaba to try forefoot running. Now, I'm injury free. This is why I launched Run Forefoot, to advocate the health & performance benefits of forefoot running and to raise awareness on the dangers of heel striking, because the world needs to know.
