For me as a newcomer to trail running, the shoe is a good beginner's shoe. It offers more grip and support than a normal road running shoe, but still has the cushioning I am used to from road running shoes. I ran a Salomon trail running shoe at a trail running workshop and my feet found the difference very hard to get used to for a beginner.
I have the second version. I got up to 230 miles in them, drilled screws into the outsole, and made them my snow/ice shoes. The wide base and the fact that it sits so far off the ground works well in the snow.
Already got my pair. The V1's were road to trail powerhouses but the traction wasn't good enough for serious trail. The V2's were a massive improvement but they were very 'experimental' in their design and build. But these V3's are finally ready for prime time. They basically took their More V4's for road running, slapped a Vibram outsole on them and added a dual layer of foam to make them a teeny tiny more responsive for trails (as opposed to the super cushioned midsole for road). They're now as good as the Hoka Speedgoats and the Brooks Caldera. p.s. I know you dislike this level of cushioning but this review is valuable for us ultra-cush fans. We now know that any future reviews where you think the shoe in question has too much cushioning - then it's perfect for us 😜.
@@Cookefan59 Fresh Foam X is softer than the usual Fresh Foam, depending on how much heavier we are talking you can over-compress the foam and really throw off the geometry, especially with a low drop shoe, if you sink too deeply into that heel foam it can really mess your feet up. I had issues with Topo Ultraventure and their Zipfoam, its just too squish and my heel ends up lower than my forefoot after sinking into the foam and negative drop shoes are not a thing for a reason.
A head to head comparison in this category could be the New Balance V4 Trail vs ASICS Trabuco Max 2, any thoughts? Thanks have a great weekend everyone 🤙🏽
Yes! Training for my first 100 miler now. The race will be on flat hard packed gravel. I’ve been running in the invincible 3 on the road and love them, I want a similar feeling on the trail. My options were the more trail v3 and the trabuco max. I chose the more trail v3 because the road version is highly rated, ordered a few minutes ago. Would’ve loved a head to head comparison between the shoes.
Great review mate! I ordered myself a pair and I must say there brilliant for us heavier people, I’m 6”5 and weigh 102kg and I absolutely love running but the impact on my knees and ankles are taking its toll on me now until I found these bad lads! Literally a pain free run it was absolutely bliss. I agree there a bit dodgy on trails though well a bit more complicated ones that is as you can’t feel the ground at all and could easily roll an ankle. Would love a video on shoes for impact for us heavier runners or even any recommendations would be great👍
Hey! 😊 Would you mind giving me a little feedback on a specific point? CONTEXT: So I'm unfortunately not that tall (only 175 cm) but got 109kg and hit the gym daily (not sure if relevant, but bf on around 23% but good amount of muscles too). I've recently had a rupture in my left knee's ACL and fractured my meniscus. Had surgery last September and since November I was already doing indoor bike, and back to gym since December. I still have some instability (more 6 months of physio) and still can't run, but can walk normally. MY QUESTION: I have my first international trip (to Europe) coming in and I'm looking for a very cushioned pair of shoes to walk a lot with the minimal knee discomfort. Would you recommend these guys for like, a lot of walking during 3 weeks? The most difficult scenario I'll be in is probably a few hikes in the four days in Switzerland, but for that I might get something else, I'm mainly interested in the comfort these folks would provide me during long hours. Thank you in advance buddy, and sorry for the long text.
I was considering these or the Trabuco Max 2 and went with the ASICS since I needed a pair a few months ago for the winter but am looking forward to maybe getting these next winter
Thanks for this review Loyd, I was looking forward to it, as I purchased a pair of the NB Trail Version 2s on sale to replace my Salomon Ultraglides. I've now done over 300km in them, and your summary is spot on, very comfy but you need to concentrate when the trail gets a bit gnarly. I'll keep them going for a few more months but will revert to something comfortable but more compact after that. Loved that soundtrack you used.
I saw NB V2 on sale and said I would try them, hated them at first but when I broke em in I loved them, good for getting in the big miles with less soreness after. on race day I will go for Sg5 or Keiger, NB not good for technical trails, can't wait to try V3 out for training and putting in the miles, balance is tricky at first but ok for just plodding along, Loyd come to Ireland and try the Kerry Way Ultra. Outstanding channel with great vid quality
Nice looking shoe. I have the Brooks Caldera 6,which has hefty stack and has become my main "off road" shoe,I really like it. Be good to do a comparison.
I’m sure this shoe will fit the bill for some folks but honestly part of the reason I prefer trail running is that I can wear shoes that are much more stripped down than my road shoes day after day without injury (mostly 😏) or discomfort.
Ive been wearing more minimal shoes for 3000 miles and found this shoe seemed much easier on my feet after a long run. Still to early to cast a vote but so far I love this shoe if it holds up
Thank you so much for sharing this great experience, wearing the New Balance More Trail V3 is my favorite for next running shoe purchase.👍🏼💪🏽🔥🔥🔥🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
One of the most distinctive things about the "NB Mores" is that extremely wide outsole platform. For this reason, it could affect your choice of foot placement in a narrow area. Loyd gets into this a bit around 13:32. Could require a significant mental adjustment, depending on what you like to run through.
I bought these and have sent them back. Mainly because I found the toe box too shallow. But also, I couldn’t really think of a good argument to keep them. My Xodus ultra 2 have a more spacious toe box and can do everything the More Trail could do and more. And the dry, smooth terrain that I would use the More trail for I could just as easily use road shoes.
Was a wide option not available? I bought the More Trail V2s and got lucky I've seen a review saying they're slightly narrow which made me get the wider size.
I bought these shoes based on this video. I had to take them off and stop my run. My feet were killing me. They hurt worse than a zero drop shoe. Going back today.
These super stack shoes seem to be getting crazy. Not sure why trail shoes need to be so cushioned, when you are on a trial. The super cushion shoes seem fine for easy days on the road when you just want to get miles in without fatiguing your feet and legs, but not often. Work on foot strength to help improve your days out. I am really looking forward to the Unknown trail.
I have the NB More Trail v2 and have done about 100 ish miles of running and probably about 50miles of walking/ hiking in them. I think for 9/10 situations there is too much cushioning and they feel a bit cumbersome. I did a 50k which was mainly on the ex estuary cycle path and for that they were brilliant. Probably their ideal use case as you say. But then when I used them for a much more technical and very muddy half marathon on the coast path at Polzeath I found them not great on the steep or off camber sections. I mainly use as a walking/ dog walking shoe now but do occasionally run in them.
Great review Loyd. Thank You! I was looking at these as need a shoe with good cushioning due to newly developed bone density issues but at the same time have a bust ankle with weak ligaments. So pleased to avoid a possible roll due to lack of contact feel! Back to the drawing board !
If you have weak ligaments from a busted ankle I'd definitely stear clear of this one 👍 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated 🙏
Great vid as always. As someone who has dodgy toes rigid/ rocker soles are better for me so I'm always interested in how much flex / bend is in the shoe.. on the next review give them a squeeze..try to scrunch then up...just for me...
A shoe with a midsole as deep and cushioned as these isn't going to have a lot of flex at the midfoot, if any. I've just tried to bend it and it isn't moving! 👍 Hope thus helps and thanks for watching 🙏
Get ready for the cushioning Dean! I'd be interested to hear what you think of the shoes. On hard compact flat trails they do run well, it's very bouncy!! 😲 I did find they really struggled off camber though, I had to work really hard to try and stay stable 🤔 Hope you enjoy them and thanks for watching 🙏
@@Run4Adventure Bloody hell they are bouncy!! Only tried them on but that’s a heck of a stack. I’ve never noticed a mid sole feel like that before. Hoping my Superfeet innersoles will help stabilise them
I tried these on aside the hierro v7s and I did like the v7s but they fit so narrow and I do not have a wide foot at all. The more trails definitely has a wider more comfortable toe box
Great review with detail! Personally I love the cushioning.......can't be too much :-) I'm not quick enough to worry about connecting with the ground. Your review tells me I want these shoes 🙂
I love the framing of every shot when you do the running. 🎥 🔥 BTW Can you compare it to the Nike Invincible 3 in terms of how bouncy and comfortable it is?
It looks like my More V4 road shoes only with trail lugs, and from the review it sounds like that's the exact idea that NB had. It's probably mean to be used more like gravel bikes than full trail running.
That looks like Hayle towans? I grew up there. I now live on a mountain in Portugal. How would these stack up (excuse the pun) to the rebel v4 for comfort? I wear the rebel v4 for dog walking up and down the mountain and just need some more water resistant comfort shoes for winter. So my questions, are they as comfy/squishy and are they water repellent? Hope you can help 🙏
i like the more v4 road shoes, for when my feet are sore. i suppose there are trails where a very cushioned shoe might work. old railway lines, long straight lines
Struggling to think of a race these would be good for. maybe the South Down Way 100 which is in summer when the trails are rock hard and nothing too technical. It does seem very niche though.
Just what I was thinking. Something breathable and with grip on non extreme technical terrain…but for long mile walks like Camino de Santiago. Its cushioning comfort seems more geared towards that.
I love the v1 More Trail. It is not as firm or as high - it is like a Speedgoat with more toe box space. V2 More Trail, they ruined it. It sounds like V3 is the same. Very unstable. The form is actually firmer than the original and it is firmer than the road version. My boyfriend tried the V3, rolled his ankle on just average technical trails. I honestly don't know who this shoe is for. Maybe people just just run non-technical truck trails? 🤷🏼♀️
As heavy as i am 110kg i went super fat blob Xfoam nb:s (Dont really know the model but i think it was most expensive) for road because shin splints. Must because i want to avoid having shin splints again. Bouncy AF but whatever it takes to run.
If you're running on the road, a road shoe would probably be a better choice. Also its a myth that a deeply cushioned running shoes helps bad knees! If you're having issues with your knees I'd try and get to the bottom of the problem first 👍 Thanks for watching 🙏
what would be your choice between these & speedgoat 5 for walking long distance such as the pennine way over mixed terrain around 20 mile per day ?. cheers
Great video I think the comment below says thanks I love my ankles lol. Have you tried the NB Hirros? How do you feel about a long walk in these, Fatigue or no?
The lugs may wear quite rapidly depending on the surface. This, in turn, could lead to a not so pleasant experience in the shoe. I’ve had this happen with Altra Lone Peaks. Very comfortable shoe, but wearing on pavement wears the lugs down and affects the overall feel, in a not so positive way.
They seem like an SUV of shoes. Not very sporty or Good off road, but perfect for pavements and andventures like taking kids to school or doing groceries
Hello. Can I get advice from you for city tours and walking? Assuming that I can take an average of 20-30 thousand steps per day in cities for trips abroad, would you recommend this shoe? I am looking for a shoe that will make me feel less tired as much as possible and increase my desire to walk. I like the Fresh Foam X More Trail v3 or v2 looks. do you think that's what i'm looking for?
Maybe the NB Fresh Foam X road running shoe woukd be a better choice. Obviously this shoe is designed for trail running so you might get a bit more durability out of the road shoe Ismail 👍 Hope this helps and thanks for watching the channel 🙏😊
It really depends on what’s causing your Soleus pain? Have you had it looked at? If it’s instability or lack of strength in the lower leg then this shoe would be terrible! Because the cushioning is so soft and so high it can run quite unstable on uneven ground! Hope this helps and thanks for watching Joshua🙏🙂
@@Run4Adventure thanks for replying, fairly new to running and loving the content. I think it’s down to instabilities as I had 0 pain using Northface vectiv went to some Nike cushioned Nike invincible 3s and it came on within a couple miles Run in the back lanes around Dartmoor, Devon so looking for a shoe that’s ok for tarmac but ok on some trails and it’s a bit of a mine field !! Loving the content, keep it up 👍
It really depends on the type of terrain you’re running on? Ones a road shoe and the other ones a trail running shoe. However they are both very cushioned shoes 👍😁
Do you ever use lockdown eyelets on shoes that are unstable or have heel slippage? Either with or without using a runners knot? Just curious because I’ve watched a bunch of your video reviews and don’t recall you ever showing you using those extra eyelets. Obviously I enjoy and get alot out of your reviews. Any response would be appreciated. Thanks
I really don't get on with using the extra eyelets, especially with a runner knot! I've tried it before and I just find it uncomfortable on the top of my foot unfortunately. I also think if you need to use it, it probably means your not in the right shoe for your footshape 🤔 Thanks for watching 🙏
Thanks for reply. I agree with you that the runners knot can cause irritation across the top of the foot. So I have used the extra eyelet without the knot on some shoes that I’ve had heel slippage on. It has helped for me. I also agree that having to use the extra eyelet may mean the shoe is not right for me, but not trying it seems like a missed opportunity. Mostly because my right and left foot are not exactly the same. Not a big difference, like maybe 1/32 inch difference smaller than the other, but can cause slippage in one shoe. Sorry for way-to-much detail. Thanks again for your efforts in reviews and making yhe videos. Enjoy your runs.
I returned mine as I found the toe box quite shallow and pressure on the top of my big toe. The upper material was very soft and comfortable but the pressure on the toe was a deal breaker for me.
I had the V2 but sold them on. As much as I liked the comfort they were just far too heavy, and even though I had a "wide" size the toe box was still quite snug and I don't even have hobbit feet 😂 I've never had to purchase wide shoes before until those more v2's. I had a pair of Solomon UltraGlide 2's arrive the other day so looking forward to trying those out 👍🏻
I haven't found the V3's that narrow Paul. I feel my Ultra Glide 2's are a narrower fit compared to the NB shoes. How did you find the fit of the Salomons? 🤔
@@Run4Adventure I definitely agree that the Solomon are snug but not uncomfortable. Hopefully the upper will loosen off a bit once I start getting some miles in them
I didn't unfortunately but I did have several pairs of Speedgoat 3's, which I loved. The Evo Speedgoat was built off the same model, great shoe 👍 Thanks for watching 🙏
This shoe has no water repellent and it's definitely not waterproof, if it was I would have definitely mentioned it in the video 👍 Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏
The jacket is about 2 years old Lasse so I'm not sure of the name and I don't think Scott make them any more? Sorry I can't help more but thanks for watching 🙏😊
3% biobased content in only one component of the shoe will have a negligible (at best) impact on the carbon footprint of the shoe, its just greenwashing & marketing guff

As a heavier runner I’m very appreciative to see there is a great trail shoe that accentuates exactly what I need. Thank you for the wonderful review.
You’ll probably bottom out

I'm still using the V1 and I'm very satisfied with them.
2E width, durable (very) and good grip (but the outer sole is very different from the v3).
The v1 were great and lasted me over 800km but I skipped the v2 already and went back to Challenger ATR6 (on sale)
Loved the trail V1 and V2, but I'm gonna pass on the V3. The road V4 and my feet just never felt right.
Great review mate!

Seems like a good model for thru hiking, like Camino de Santiago. Perhaps not so much for running because of stability.

Are those two water proof?
I stand under correction, but if you have a GoPro subscription, they will replace your broken camera with a new one for either a small fee or free.
It's a nice looking trail shoe too, but I can't see me reaching for this with the types of trail I run on.
The trails definitely need to be flat and not overly technical in these Aaron. I really struggled with them on more tech stuff 🤔

Great video as ever Loyd, I just don't think max cushioning and trail shoes go together, not for me as it sounds it's not for you either

I loved the more Trail v1 but already the v2 was too much for my taste. This one is just another notch tooooooo much :)
what would be your choice between these & speedgoat 5 for walking long distance such as the pennine way over mixed terrain around 20 mile per day ?. cheers
Great video I think the comment below says thanks I love my ankles lol. Have you tried the NB Hirros? How do you feel about a long walk in these, Fatigue or no?
Do you mean NB Hierro? 🤔
Would it be a problem if i wore these daily as a casual shoe?
The lugs may wear quite rapidly depending on the surface. This, in turn, could lead to a not so pleasant experience in the shoe.
I’ve had this happen with Altra Lone Peaks. Very comfortable shoe, but wearing on pavement wears the lugs down and affects the overall feel, in a not so positive way.
Hi will it be a good choice for Great Glen Way hike?
Just from looking at the lugs I am not a fan of this shoe. I feel like they could’ve done a much better job on the tread of this shoe.
I think these shoes will fit my large feet in front. Also I am beginner, but i have question , is it ok to run on street ?
Compare to Nike invincible?
They seem like an SUV of shoes. Not very sporty or Good off road, but perfect for pavements and andventures like taking kids to school or doing groceries
Any chance of an nnormal review? Look like a solid option for the trails.
I loved them for my hike.
Can you pick up the pace in these, or are they too heavy
There’s a lot of shoe for picking up the pace! I personally wouldn’t use them for that 👍
I think you should just change your name to Lord Jarvis.😊
Are these non slip?
Hello. Can I get advice from you for city tours and walking? Assuming that I can take an average of 20-30 thousand steps per day in cities for trips abroad, would you recommend this shoe? I am looking for a shoe that will make me feel less tired as much as possible and increase my desire to walk. I like the Fresh Foam X More Trail v3 or v2 looks. do you think that's what i'm looking for?
Maybe the NB Fresh Foam X road running shoe woukd be a better choice. Obviously this shoe is designed for trail running so you might get a bit more durability out of the road shoe Ismail 👍
Hope this helps and thanks for watching the channel 🙏😊
Hype beast Will like these
still waiting on the Saucony Ultra2 vs the peregrine 13
Ultra 2 with less stack..has many advantages
@@jeffloflin6316 thanks!
It's coming, should be on the channel soon 👍😊
@@Run4Adventure yes!
good shoe review needs to tell us the sizing .. did you?
I always go up half a size in NB shoes, they tend to size quite small 👍
Thanks for watching 🙏
where can I buy that blue jacket you are wearing at the start of the video?
The jacket is made by Scott running but it's about 3 years old now so I don't think they make it anymore 🤔 Thanks for watching 🙏
Would these be any good for people who suffer with Soleus pain ?
Many thanks
It really depends on what’s causing your Soleus pain? Have you had it looked at? If it’s instability or lack of strength in the lower leg then this shoe would be terrible! Because the cushioning is so soft and so high it can run quite unstable on uneven ground! Hope this helps and thanks for watching Joshua🙏🙂
@@Run4Adventure thanks for replying, fairly new to running and loving the content. I think it’s down to instabilities as I had 0 pain using Northface vectiv went to some Nike cushioned Nike invincible 3s and it came on within a couple miles
Run in the back lanes around Dartmoor, Devon so looking for a shoe that’s ok for tarmac but ok on some trails and it’s a bit of a mine field !!
Loving the content, keep it up 👍
What about a size, is that true to size or run smaller?
I went up half a size to a uk10, I always go up half a size in New Balance shoes because they tend to size small 👍🙂
Hi. Whats bettet - more v4 or more trail v3? Looking for comfort comfort and comfort
It really depends on the type of terrain you’re running on? Ones a road shoe and the other ones a trail running shoe. However they are both very cushioned shoes 👍😁
Do you ever use lockdown eyelets on shoes that are unstable or have heel slippage? Either with or without using a runners knot? Just curious because I’ve watched a bunch of your video reviews and don’t recall you ever showing you using those extra eyelets. Obviously I enjoy and get alot out of your reviews. Any response would be appreciated. Thanks
I really don't get on with using the extra eyelets, especially with a runner knot! I've tried it before and I just find it uncomfortable on the top of my foot unfortunately. I also think if you need to use it, it probably means your not in the right shoe for your footshape 🤔
Thanks for watching 🙏
Thanks for reply. I agree with you that the runners knot can cause irritation across the top of the foot. So I have used the extra eyelet without the knot on some shoes that I’ve had heel slippage on. It has helped for me. I also agree that having to use the extra eyelet may mean the shoe is not right for me, but not trying it seems like a missed opportunity. Mostly because my right and left foot are not exactly the same. Not a big difference, like maybe 1/32 inch difference smaller than the other, but can cause slippage in one shoe. Sorry for way-to-much detail. Thanks again for your efforts in reviews and making yhe videos. Enjoy your runs.
For standing on concrete all day I bet it's nice
Hey man, how is the height and with on the toe box?
Also, That green Dickies shirt is looking good on you.
Thanx for the video my Running Brother!!!
I returned mine as I found the toe box quite shallow and pressure on the top of my big toe. The upper material was very soft and comfortable but the pressure on the toe was a deal breaker for me.
@@wesarnold2408 Thank you so much for that info. Though I have very narrow feet, my research has led me to using wide toe boxes with a decent height.
I'd say the toe box height is average, not to high or shallow. Hope this helps and thanks for watching the channel 👍😊
@@Run4Adventure Yes, that info helps a lot. Cheers mate👍
What socks are u wearing
My socks are from Stance 👍🙂
what is the sizing?
I always go up half a size in New Balance shoes, they tend to size small 👍🙂
Love it
Thanks for watching Juan 🙏😊
I had the V2 but sold them on. As much as I liked the comfort they were just far too heavy, and even though I had a "wide" size the toe box was still quite snug and I don't even have hobbit feet 😂 I've never had to purchase wide shoes before until those more v2's.
I had a pair of Solomon UltraGlide 2's arrive the other day so looking forward to trying those out 👍🏻
Yea the moretrail v2 was incredibly narrow
I haven't found the V3's that narrow Paul. I feel my Ultra Glide 2's are a narrower fit compared to the NB shoes. How did you find the fit of the Salomons? 🤔
@@Run4Adventure I definitely agree that the Solomon are snug but not uncomfortable. Hopefully the upper will loosen off a bit once I start getting some miles in them
@Run4Adventure did you ever run in the evo speedgoat?
I didn't unfortunately but I did have several pairs of Speedgoat 3's, which I loved. The Evo Speedgoat was built off the same model, great shoe 👍 Thanks for watching 🙏
would you choose this show over the Hoka Speedgoat 5?
*shoe
I personally wouldn't, I find the SG5 feel more stable on technical trails. Hope this helps and thanks for watching the channel 🙏😊
Does this have more fresh foam than the More V4? I can’t find an answer.
I haven't run in the More V4 so I can't really say? Sorry I can't help more but thanks for watching the channel 🙏😊
Stack height should be 40mm/36mm.
Cheers Steffen 👍
That's a lot of soft stuff under your foot in a trail shoe! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated 🙏
@@Run4Adventure I don't even run but I watch your videos anyways, because they are informative and intertaining.
How many inches does this add up to your height
I at least a foot taller when I wear them 😂 It's a crazy high midsole! Thanks for watching 🙏
What about to have these for a lifestyle shoe?
They might feel to cushioned for a lifestyle shoe! 🤔
@@Run4Adventure thanks for the reply! So it's a no go!
Is the shoes splash proof?
This shoe has no water repellent and it's definitely not waterproof, if it was I would have definitely mentioned it in the video 👍
Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏
The pull tab is too small to get a finger under it. Who the heck designed that thing?
I totally agree, it just seems to get in the way? 🤔
What is the song ?
Fish on Land by Blood Red Sun 😊
Are these water resistant
No they're not water resistant, if they were water resistant I would have definitely mentioned it in the video 👍
Are they waterproof???
Definitely not waterproof. I'd of obviously mentioned that in the review if they were 👍
Thanks for watching 🙏
Hi i like your jacket…i. Can see its scott, what is the full name😊
The jacket is about 2 years old Lasse so I'm not sure of the name and I don't think Scott make them any more? Sorry I can't help more but thanks for watching 🙏😊
It’s tts? Thanks 🙏🏼
I always go up half a size in my NB running shoes, I find they size up small Giginio. I did mention that in the video 🤔
Thanks for watching 🙏
@@Run4Adventure thanks for help my brother 🙏🏼
🏆🏆
3% biobased content in only one component of the shoe will have a negligible (at best) impact on the carbon footprint of the shoe, its just greenwashing & marketing guff
Those in the know claim that their upcoming trail shoe will have twice the cushioning.
If it has twice as much cushion as these it will be like running on a trampoline!! 😁
Are these water resistant or water proof ? 🤔
Definitely not waterproof or water resistant, I'd have mentioned it in the review if they where 👍
those midsole same likes hoka 😅
I'd say the More Trail V3's midsole is deeper and softer than a Hoka midsole! 👍
@@Run4Adventure oh wow! Interesting
Surely too kuch cushioning for trails. Sole depth
If the trails are relatively flat and compacted it runs really well but I did find it to much when I was on more technical terrain Jospin 👍
It’s common sense if it’s too cushiony your balance will get older faster lol
I like how you've worded that 👍
Thanks for watching 🙏
