Gearist Adventures and Reviews

Get your hands on the Brooks Catamount 2: https://bit.ly/3rkMbDc It's been WAY too long since version one but the @brooksrunning Catamount 2 is FINALLY here! #brookscatamount2 #shoereview #Gearist We loved version one of this shoe, not because it was earth-shattering but because, from the construction to the traction to the durability to the rock-solid performance; the Brooks Catamount was - AND REMAINS - one of the most consistently good trail running shoes out there. Did you run (or even race) in the first version of the Brooks Catamount?

The Nike Terra Kiger 9 is rapidly approaching a decade of the model being amongst Nike's most popular trail running shoes. In this review we get into the changes in the ninth version of this trail running classic as well as what's stayed the same. Probably the biggest change is the Nike Kiger 9 ditching the underfoot Zoom Air pods which have been one of the hallmarks of Kigers past. This time around, Nike has gone with a full midsole of Nike React Foam with a WEE bit of an EVA foam rock plate. Another change is the streamlined heel cup and collar area. In years past, the rear of the Nike Terra Kiger has been clearly distinct parts making up the construction. In the Kiger 9, the rearfoot is a much more smooth and cohesive single unit. How many versions of the Nike Terra Kiger have you run in? Let's hear it in the comments!

The Salewa Wildfire 2 is an approach shoe. Is it a hiking shoe? Sure. Is it a rock climbing shoe? Why not. This shoe with a Pomoca rubber outsole and locked-in upper is meant to have your back while at the start of your adventure while you're hiking from the trailhead to the epic scrambling that awaits. Note: There is also a Gore-tex version of this shoe, the Salewa Wildrfire 2 GTX. Have you ever used an approach shoe or is this the first time you've ever even heard of them?

PARDON THE WEIRD AUDIO, FRIENDS! Gearist gets into the whip-quick and lightweight trail racing shoe, the Salomon S/Lab Pulsar 2. Definitely a shoe following in the footsteps of some which grace the feet of some of the most elite trail runners on the planet, this shoe is built to go fast. Built with a subtly designed, Contagrip rubber outsole, the traction is made for the rocky, dry trails here in Colorado (though there is always the Salomon S/Lab Pulsar 2 SG for those who need a bit more lug). The midsole is poppy with enough cushion to dampen microvibrations while holding up to the demands of longer trail runs. The Matryx upper brings lightweight durability and overall ass kicking fit (IF your foot isn't too wide). Have you run in this shoe? Let's hear it in the comments!

Where to buy the Adidas Adizero Adios Pro 3 running shoes: http://bit.ly/3gWRPpX0 The Adidas Adizero Adios Pro 3 is a bonafide marathon crushing super shoe. While that's certainly the case on the feet of people like Evans Chebet as he lit up the streets in the 2022 New York City Marathon but what about "normal" runners like you and me? This shoe is whip quick with a ton of responsiveness while also having a good deal of cushioning. Bring on the speed no matter what that may mean for you!

Gentle afternoon hike with the best dog in the world on the Sourdough T I hear mommy, he just got up rail above Ward, Colorado. Early-season still but the snow is so beautiful.

Brainard Lake Recreation Area above Ward, Colorado is not only close to Boulder and Longmont, but it's also an outdoorsy playground. From fishing to trail running to hiking and skiing and everything in between. In winter months, the main gate is closed to vehicles so the road to trails heading into the Indian Peaks Wilderness are wide open!

Today on what the Friday we're looking at the Shiv tandem comcept bike from Specialized. This bike is one that'll never see light of day as a production piece but nevertheless it's a wickedly fast looking, carbon fiber beast built for two. Complete with disc brakes, integrated seat posts, shaft drive drivetrain and some of the sleekest, most aero lines we've ever seen in a bike, much less a tandem bike! Do you rock the tandem bike ride?

Brandon from Gearist unboxing of the Nike Repel jacket. Lightweight and waterproof, this thing is jonesing for a cold, wet run! #running #trailrunning #run #marathon #nikerunning

First snowflakes of the season for us! Of course, they were a bit less fun that I’d have liked being that they brought their friends hail, sleet and wind along for the party! #snow #coloradolife #playoutside

I got caught in a big fat rainstorm on the Left Hand Trail. Not as bad as it could’ve been but still left me with shoes caked with mud that by the second half of my run weighed over 2 1/2 pounds or so. Fun stuff!

Featuring FF Blast+ foam the Novablast 3 from Ascis has that wicked leaf spring feel and pop.

If you’re an adventurer like we are you’ve probably cursed having no phone signal a lot! With this little trick, you can download and keep Google Maps data for offline use so you can (hopefully) keep from getting lost! #googlemaps #playoutside #getlost #backcountry #adventure
