BEST FOR: Mixing road and trail runs. THE TEST: The North Face’s light (and minimally cushioned) Hayasa made testers happiest on less demanding trails where flexibility and comfort trumped grip and protection. Several commented on how much they liked the Hayasa’s breathable, soft upper, and everyone was impressed by how easily the shoe transitioned between well-maintained trails and roads. “A great all-around shoe,” said one. THE VERDICT: As long as you avoid really rugged terrain, you won’t need another shoe in your closet. 8.3 oz
