November Best Selling Trail Running Shoes

Our Top7 has been shaken up!

The juggernaut that has been the Altra Lone Peak finally had a down month for us–finishing 2nd for both men and women.  I thought only another Altra shoe–like the improved Superior 2.0 due out in January or the amazingly improved Olympus 2.0 due in this week–could unseat the King and Queen of trail running shoes.

Instead, Topo Athletic  stole the show this month!!  It’s always nice to route for a small, new up-and-coming brand like Topo…because we are a small, new up-and-coming shop.

  3. Pearl Izumi Trail M2

Really though, these November lists are just leftover Turkey compared to the main courses coming up: The End of Year Top7  and the #Prediction7 for 2016. Look for these before Christmas.  Our Top 4 brands–Altra, Pearl Izumi, Hoka, and Topo–distanced themselves from everybody else by July.  Will they remain at the top? Will their order change? Tune in later this month to find out!
