Inov-8 Roclite 295 is a bit on the expensive side. Some runners mentioned the lack of durability. especially since they haven’t held up to wear and tear. Also. others have complained that the forefoot area is a bit narrow. The soft sole is relatively thin.
The tongue is very good and doesn't get pulled into the shoe. Also, the material in the heel/achilles section is very nice and doesn't seem to create friction causing blistering. The cushioning under the heel is good and provides a lot of shock absorption. This is a great trail running shoe.

I've really enjoyed the transition to lighter shoes and accepted the wet feet lifestyle. I have put about 1000km on my pair of roclites both running and 36 days of Thru hiking in the Alps. The shoes are very comfortable and the laseing systemUncomfortable on roads. The Trailroc 245 has been replaced by the Trailroc 270. It's a total redesign with new tread. The 270 is a little heavier and has a slightly larger 4mm drop which makes it closer to a light trail running shoe than a barefoot shoe. Inov8 began designing and manufacturing running shoes in England in 2003.
Customer Reviews inov-8 Roclite™ 286 GTX Great complement to these boots, but so are the Inov-8 Roclite 295's. Anonymous, Zappos Customer, April 20, 2014.
Inov-8 describe the Roclite Pro G 400 Gore-Tex boot as its “toughest and most cushioned hiking boot to date”. It’s made from a Schoeller ceramic-coated fabric in which “thousands of super-tough ceramic particles are bound together in honeycomb formations” for abrasion resistance and durability, and has a Gore-Tex XCR membrane inside.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Inov-8 Roclite 295-U Trail Runner, Brown, 14 M US at Amazon.com.
