Less suited to: Fast, technical mountain running, where a lighter and lower shoe gives better feel. For that, look at Trail Footwear.

If you've tried a trail shoe that felt harsh after a few hours, the Hierro is the answer we reach for. The v9 is softer underfoot and grippier than the last, so it works for people who want to go long and not worry about the ground beneath them.
