Looks Like Montrail come out with another killer trail Shoe!!
“The NITRUS moves trail runners another step forward with a faster ride and better forefoot flexibility. The breathable and light-weight upper is reinforced with ultra-tough monofilament mesh for protection without bulk. A multi-density midsole and Terrahex shock absorption technology transitions smoothly from road to trail. Runners of all ability levels will enjoy the fast, stylish, and well-balanced ride.”

Do you happen to know when the nitrus will be available in stores? I’d like to try a pair for my first marathon but I’ll have to get my shoes pretty soon.
Hey Todd,
I will find out a release date for you, it may take a day or so~
What type of surface are you racing on? The Continental Divide is a real smooth ride if it fits your foot.

Vitesse being discontinued? NNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!! These are my fave boats. I alternate between the Continentals and Vitesses depending on the course and I too have been looking forward to the Nitrus debute. Will have to now go stock up on the V’s.

Just bought the Nitrus. They feel like the Nike Zoom Air Elite (Very Comfy) but with a very rigid sole. They also have great toe wiggle room, if you are partial to the freedom of chacos. They are also very breathable and have a soft tongue with no odd pressure points over the metatarsal (ie. the CTC). This is just what I was looking for in a lightweight trail shoe.
I don’t expect them to be great trail runner’s because of the rigidity (more rigid than the vasque blur) but I believe they will offer excellent load support and stability on unlevel terrain as the top of the shoes does not seem to stretch much.
Nice review

I need a very neutral shoe for a big guy that tends to roll ankles…could this be the shoe for me??
