purplealienplanet 1.0I have a pair of the Brooks Divide 5 Gore-tex shoes and I love them for things like this. They're kind of like an in between shoe you can wear on the road or on light trails. They make me feel like I can conquer any terrain and my feet stay completely dry.
DownRiver99 0.5When did they discontinue the Divide? I saw it on their site a few months ago. Actually, I think the Divide 5 is a bargain of a shoe for its price. Excellent shoe for easy trails. And if one suffers from Achilles tendonosis, the high drop on them is a lifesaver…
garfield529 0.5Currently working through a pair of Divide 5. I personally love them. They have nice cushion and I didn’t feel the typical need to wear them in feel that most new shoes have. The toe box isn’t large so would consider that depending on your foot size.
unseenmover 0.5Brooks divide 5s with superfeet. They can be worn w/o socks and easily dryout so they stink like the Brooks soles do
05778 0.3Brooks Divide would be great. Non technical means different things to different people. To me, I would use road shoes on a non technical trail. I ran Javelina 100k in Brooks Ghosts
Character-Yogurt3602 0.3In the main I am a running around the block on pavements girly but they do get very slippery at this time of year so I completely get where you’re coming from! I normally wear Brooks Ghost but found they were lacking grip in wetter conditions so I also got a pair of Brooks Divide, which are a lightweight trail shoe and they’ve been just the ticket.
Correct-Mail-1942 0.3Trail runners - I run my street and treadmill stuff in Hokas but do not like their trail runners, so I use Brooks Divides. I get at least 2 years out of a pair, playing 2x weekly. Fantastic grip and feel. Only problem is they're not waterproof.
Brooks Divides, been using the 3's and 5's with zero issues.
Crunch_inc 0.3Brooks Divide, marketed as a hybrid trail shoe. I used it comfortably during my transition from road to trails. I would wear it for the very rugged trails though.
defib_the_dead 0.3Check out Brooks Divides. They are a hybrid shoe for trail and road. I find them to be very stable. I also love Brooks Cascadias but they have a rock plate which can be really firm.
There are no stability trail shoes. I do great in Brooks Cascadias and Brooks Divides.
Greennit0 0.3The Divide works well for me on the road and is so much better on light trails than a road shoe.
