Advice for Trail Runners: Running over hard-packed, dry and rock trails requires a specific set of attributes in your trail running shoes. Thankfully, the INOV8 Women's TrailFly Trail Running Shoes have all of the necessary credentials.

Underfoot Feel

As is the case with all INOV8 Running Shoes, you should feel confident on uneven terrain in the TrailFly Trail Running Shoes. A significant amount of bouncy POWERFLOW PRO cushioning sits directly under your feet, which should help you to run further in more comfort

In a bid to further improve comfort, a soft and energy returning BOOMERANG Footbed also sits under your feet. There's also a flexible rock plate that minimises the potential discomfort that a sharp rock can inflict.

The TRAILFLY's outsole has the following benefits:

• 4 mm GRAPHENE-GRIP studs grip on rocky and hard-packed terrain;
• Stud placement/orientation helps you push-off faster and break quicker;
• It sheds mud quickly to maintain grip; and
• Graphene-enhanced rubber offers better grip on wet rock in comparison to previous versions.

Upper Fit

You should expect a light and breathable feel from the air-mesh material in the INOV8 Women's TrailFly upper.

Even though the toe box should feel spacious, thick MET-CRADLE strips connect the midfoot to the heel to lock your feet in.

Ideal Run Type

When the sun is shining and the trails are waiting, the INOV8 Women's TrailFly Trail Running Shoes should be a great option. Whilst they should perform in wet conditions, they're likely to offer the best grip on drier terrain.

Whether it's a long day out over the hills, or a rolling ultra distance event, the cushioned midsole should help you get to the finish in comfort.

Sizing Advice

Shoe size is a personal preference and everyone's feet are different, but we want to ensure you avoid any pain or discomfort from bruised toenails, rubbing, blistering or pins and needles.

Your running shoes should have enough width to allow you to spread your toes and should have some space at the front (we recommend having a half to one thumb's width of space from the end of your longest toe to the front of your running shoes).

This usually means that your running shoe will be at least a half size bigger than your regular shoe size though this can vary from brand to brand.
