Chaussure Sylan Pro Homme

A perfect fit and a shoe that almost walk and run by itself, wow! 🤩

I purchased these shoes on the recommendation from a friend after experiencing some stability issues in the forefoot from New Balance and Brooks trail shoes. Overall the Sylvans are incredibly stable shoes. the materials are top notch, lacing system is excellent and I appreciated the rocker design. My only gripe with these is the hollow feeling in the heal. I feel like its over done and shouldn't be as noticeable. There are ways to provide heel cusioning while also making the heel supportive. With this hollow cushioning in the heel it makes the shoe feel like a zero drop shoe. Maybe some heel strikers like this extra padding cut away, I'm a mid foot striker and it leaves me itching for more heel support. I also think that these should should have a more robust insole. By far one of the thinnest insoles of any high end running shoe. I'm going to try to find a nice aftermarket insole and hope that it dulls the hollow heel feeling a bit more. The hollow heal feeling is more noticeable when standing, less so when running. I'm looking forward to breaking these in more. Will check back on my review after a hundred or so miles...

The show is comfortable and extremely light. They are durable and the white color lets designs on socks really pop. Its traction makes the shows useful in all terrain for long distances. I think I clocked about 4km a day. What I didn’t like is the shoes delivered to me have yellowing in the plastic areas. So the shoe doesn’t look like the picture. Otherwise its a purposeful shoe and expensive for the average person so if you’re looking to standout you will standout.

Bought these to replace my Norvan LD's... fit wider size-for-size, and are not quite as slipper-soft in the uppers. They did however stretch considerably after about 50k of very rough ground. This is not going to affect comfort or heel-slip, but I now won't be able to use thin socks; not really an issue as these are a little too warm to wear on hotter days anyway. Just keep in mind if you want a tight fit- consider a half size down. The lace garage is a bit useless as the tight laces stop entry to it.. and the debris cuff really is a bit pointless- it is simply too slack. Seems a bit strange that another variable (ankle girth ?!) is now affecting the overall fit, as if arch, forefoot width, heel width etc etc were not enough. Personally I always wear a light gaiter anyway, so not an issue. Compared to the GTX version, these are ever so slightly roomier, more complaint, and comfier- and the internal heel stitching is not at all an issue with these as it is with the GTX. So, super comfy on long, rough, distance; I don't get any heel roll that some reviewers mention, and the stack and rand allow for considerable wet-ground resistance(at cost of increased sweatiness I suppose). A really good shoe, better than my Speed-goat, and far my adept at scrambling.

These are a great long distance trail option. Perfect rocker to keep you moving, balances comfort with performance well and is very durable so far. I ran most of my recent 55k with this model(previous pair that I own), and really should of used them start to finish. Midsole is also great, stack height numbers don't include outsole or insole I don t think so you have more padding than what is listed on the site. Sizing is a bit off, I had to go down half size. No issues with any construction or premature midsole or outsole breakdown. Solid option for daily, long adventure or racing.
