Love the softness of these shoes - a little different than other VJ models. Their grip is, of course, still the best. Great trail shoe to have in your rotation!
I run all distances on different terrain and these shoes have not let me down! Even in a recent trail 100k (including technical trails, slippery downhills, rocks, forest roads and pavement!) my feet stayed super comfortable :). I love them and definitely recommend.
Ps I ordered 1/2 size down and they fit perfectly
Love the Maxx2s! I broke them in with a mountain trail run and then a 12-hour OCR, and they were fantastic. All of the grip, and I found them incredibly comfortable. Didn't get any hotspots, and felt super comfortable bombing down the trail!
Before owning these, I owned 3 pairs of Maxx 1s. Then these came out and it got even better. The super perfoamance technology makes it an absolute game changer along with the rock plates. These are now my favorite trail shoes. I used it for a 30 hour race, hikes, and all my trail runs. Love them!
