trail running shoes
What’s the difference between trail-running shoes and running shoes?
I’m on a tight budget right now and the cheapest quality running shoes I came across were trail-running shoes. I usually run on cement, so would this be a bad investment?
They can be heavier, more stable, have more aggressive tread, and usually have less cushioning. Some transition to roads better than others. Some incorporate quality waterproofing.
Cement is the hardest surface on which you can run — you’ll often want more cushioning than the average trail shoe provides.
When it comes to running shoes, it’s more important to find the right shoe(s) for you than just the cheapest shoe in the short-term. If you have to buy other shoes, get injured, etc., what’s the cheapest shoe right now will not still be the cheapest shoe in a month or two.
I’d try to find the right shoe options for you while ignoring price a bit more, and then spend time shopping around, finding sales or coupons, older models, etc., if you need to.
