All-terrain, transition running shoes are capable on a mixture of light trails, such as parks, forest trails and gravel tracks, as well as road surfaces
When it comes to finding the best road-to-trail running shoes, I approach every new release with a critical eye and a commitment to honest, no-nonsense reviews.
Every trail shoe featured in this roundup has been thoroughly tested by myself, on real trails, in all kinds of weather, and over various types of terrain that transition shoes should be able to handle, I take running shoes to the edge, to see where their breaking point is.
I stay independent and objective, and every review you watch on my Youtube Channel or read right here on this blog reflects my real-world experience. I want to help you find the trail shoe that fits your needs, not just the one that’s trending.

Road-to-trail running shoes, sometimes referred to as all-terrain, door-to-trail, hybrid or even transition running shoes are designed to be capable on a mixture of light trails, such as parks, forest trails and gravel tracks, as well as for running on road surfaces.
People also love these shoes for travelling with, as they can handle all eventualities, like the impromptu mountain hike, for example.
Weight: 10.6oz (301g) | Drop: 8mm | Fit: True to size, medium width, comfortably shaped toe box
A really natural step for road runners who already love the Ghost feel but want to mix in gravel paths, dirt park loops, and light woodland trails without switching into something aggressively “trail".
