The greatest compliment possible is that you wear these shoes, you have a great run, and you don't end up thinking about your feet at all during or after. They're just shoes, but they're not just shoes. My toes aren't sore because they have room, my arches aren't sore because they don't have to fight the shoe, my joints aren't sore because they have a comfortable stack that hold up over very long runs, the undersole is tough and feels tough as you kick trail rocks for hours on end.
They do their job, and if they ever wear out you'll buy more.

I had been eyeing off a pair of trail devils for a while and saw a set run past me one weekend and they looked brilliant. I didn't stop the wearer to ask but instead went and bought a pair. I'm delighted with the look and feel, the size is great, the toe box has tons of space, the grip is excellent, they breathe well and whilst i haven't gone through a puddle yet to confirm this, the only worry is it's water proofing/handling. Will definately buy again though

Most comfy runners I own. I love the wider toe box. Keep up the good work guys.

I hope this review proves useful for potential buyers. These shoes are great and fun! I took a gamble and ordered a pair just two weeks before a 46k race in Spain, which featured over 2400m of elevation gain on technical terrain. I knew I would be testing the shoes' capabilities, especially since I was transitioning from my previous pair, the Skyfires 2.

With only a 10k test run in these shoes and my training being a bit off for the event, I decided to go for it. I’m pleased to report that the shoes performed very well across most of the terrain. However, I did notice a lack of foot protection against rocks; I kicked about eight of them during the race. Fortunately, thanks to the shoes' bounce and lightweight design, I crossed the finish line without any blisters or bruises! Note it took me over 6 hrs to finish so probs also stretching cushioning.

While the shoes did show some wear on the midsole due to rock abrasion, I can confidently say they are top-quality. At first glance, the materials may not feel "luxurious" to the touch, but these shoes are built to endure and can definitely take a beating.

The grip is also very good, although I experienced a bit of insecurity on wet rocks. However, that’s when we runners need to rely on good technique! I believe that in the future, Tarkine could improve the grip compound instead of moving straight to Vibram, which would likely increase the shoe's price. Additionally, if future models become repairable at a cobbler (similar to what Nnormal is doing), that could be a worthwhile trade-off.
I'm deffo looking forward to running more in these shoes and on to another race, but probably on a less technical terrain.

Love the new Devils. More comfortable and faster then the old ones with springy soles. Hopefully they have the longevity.
