Having a ton of fun with the new Trail Tested series. The Endorphin Edge and Pegasus Trail 4 are solid choices for today’s episode - what do you think? Do either interest you?

“The Pegasus trail has ahhhhh low branches!” Classic trail problem there haha Loving the new format.

Off topic, but these trails are so beautiful!

Lovely music in this one!

God I love running.

That was fun as hell! As someone who is always looking for that wheeeee! moment AND being obsessed with Saucony, I'll be checking out that Endorphin Edge. Room in the toe box with the heel lock sounds cool too.

This was excellent!! Keep these up !

Love this content !!

I love this new series. Please keep doing them!

Enjoyable review, appreciated 👍🏻

Love this series!

Those trails tho… so beautiful! And your joy was palpable :)

I greatly appreciate this format. thanks!

Ah just loved every moment of that. Such gorgeous trails. Thank you!

This is an awesome review and sets you apart from all the rest! Keep it up ❤️

I love these reviews! Much appreciated - greetings from Austria 🇦🇹

Nice format! that Saucony looks dope.

Yaay! A Pegasus Trail 4 review. LOVE those shoes.

This format is 🔥🔥🔥

Wow, this video is perfect. Incredibly well done, entertaining, informative, and beautiful.

I love these TRAIL TESTED videos! Impressive camera work on while running on trails!

This video really blew my mind. Thanks for such a thoughtful way of doing shoes reviews. I really enjoyed it.

Love this concept I think you inadvertently captured the joy of trail running the peace and quiet the smell and freedom & of course new shoes 😁

First time seeing one of your videos. Nice job. Great location and you have a strong voice. Subscribed!!!!

This is such a refreshing style! Absolutely love it! (Great colour grading as well!)

Really enjoyable review, loving the new take on shoe testing. The scenery was breathtaking, I'm having a great time running the trails in the UK this summer in my Speedgoat 5's. Keep up the brilliant work GR!!

I love these videos. I find them really useful. I love the first-impression, because when I put the shoes the first time - that's what I will have. So seeing the future review will be very useful. Ideally, I'd love more back to back comparisons (ideally same trail - though I appreciate the weather this time!)

I want more TRAIL TESTED! Love the vlog format.

Love the format, your commentary and honest approach to the shoes as your out there is a real winner. But your approach and passion for the trails and the beauty around you is amazing, completely unique to any review I've come across. I've come to watch reviews for my first trail shoe purchase, I've come away with a bit of a mindset change to soak up the beauty around me, rather than running past trails to trudge around road loops worried about time, pace and heart rate.

Love this content! Thanks for the real time feedback. Also impressed that you did an actual run and not just some strides or spot testing. Very curious about the Peg bc I loved the first Pegasus Trail but the recent ones have felt way different and the fit was so bulky for my foot.

YES!! Excited to see the next episode with two shoes I’m really interested in. I love the Xodus Ultra so am curious about the Endorphin Edge. I’ll probably wait for the full review given early indications on grip and fit. Brave move going down Cableline in the rain in a new pair of shoes 😂 Curious also about the Peg 4 Trail grip and how that upper turns out. Love the Tracksmith jacket cameo too. Great work on this series!!

Love this review format. The greenery is unbelievable! - jealous San Diegan here.

Love this format! It's an easy-watch, more entertaining than the studio shoe reviews (which I do love too!) Off topic: Any idea when GRGR will be this year? I've been anticipating an announcement. 😊

Loving the Trail Tested videos! Hi from 🇿🇦

need more videos like this please

Now each pair needs to be run over by the suv to test their durability. Enjoying your shoe tests! Saucony has been on 🔥with their offerings .

I kinda wanna move out to your area after seeing how beautiful these trails are

This format is dope. I always wanted to suggest a first impression for shoes with a follow-up after __ amount of miles. After your goofy “shoe review” April Fools…the thought dawned on me. Keep it coming.

thanks for the Saucony first impression - would love a head to head with the Xodus Ultra .. think they might be the Saucony trail option for me

Awesome content 👏 please more videos of Ethan running and like this…. Oh and the comparisons are cool too 😎

I've been excited for you to talk about the Peg trail 4 for a little while now. I love that shoe! I think it's the best road to trail shoe I've ever worn. I was very curious what your opinion would be.

Great vid haha. Such beautiful trails. I wish Saucony would change up their outsole/rubber cause I really don't trust my Peregrines on wet rocks. Vibram Megagrip is ridiculously better

it's a dream to have a trail shoe carbon plated here in Brazil. 😍

I like them for short runs because they are bouncy and feel like road shoes but because they are so cushion and bouncy I get carried away and start bombing the downs which then catches up with me by 30km or so. Out of all nike trail shoes I have tried they are my fav but I am not a big fan of nike trail. Upper is fantastic fit but also agree grip not vibram

FYI: Nike did change the rubber on these. (Unfortunately on the Zegama they didn't 🤷‍♂)

Loving the trail tested series!! I’d like to see a comparison or shoe battle between the saucony endorphin and the Hoka Tecton x. It would be interesting to compare the 2

Nice format and keep up the good work! Btw1; you have soo easy trails compared to Sweden ;) .. almost no roots! :D Btw2; you should try/review a shoe from VJ Sport (finnish company). That will give you another level of grip due to their butyl rubber compound.

Hi, loving these type of reviews. It’s great to see how the shoes perform on a variety of surfaces. Can you please tell me what shoes you were wearing before you slipped on the Saucony Endorphin Edge, they looked really comfortable, we’re they some kind of recovery shoe.

As soon as I saw rain, I predicted the Nike’s were going to rival an ice skate.

All the Wee and Phew-Phews make me curious w/o needing to hear any stats or verdicts Love to see the Peggy Trail Gore btw

There's only one brand that grips wet rocks, and that's VJ. You should try them out!

je suis un fan de nike depuis peu , depuis la terra kiger 7 que j ai absolument adoré , j ai biensur acheté la zegama a sa sortie , que j adores aussi , et ma pratique ayant un peu changée , j ai decidé de me prendre cette pegasus trail , que je vais essayer cette apres midi meme , j ai hate de voir ce que cela donne , j ai un copain qui fait toutes ses sortie trail en chaussure de route , meme ses ultra , et il n a jamais été gené , alors je suis sur que cette pagasus trail 4 pourrait s attaquer a n importe quoi , comme je l ais deja dis j adores Nike , et meme si l accroche sur roche humide n est pas leur point fort , je passe la dessus tellement le reste me comble . encore une belle video explicative , merci .

Problem is the speedgoats set an almost unreachable standard for grip in a trail shoe, leaving most others feeling slippery in comparison. You can almost hang from the ceiling like a bat in the speedgoat outsoles.

Major issue with the Sauconys. Narrow heal, bouncy foam = sprained ankles. Fast, but painful on anything but trails with no rocks or roots. So, pavement.
