MONTRAIL has provided two women's shoes for the Greenfield test team. The Comp XCR outdoor shoe is one of them. I am responsible for the evaluation. It belongs to the versatile series of MONTRAIL, official description is as follows: From the bumpy stone road to the thorny mountain road, the Fusion series is designed to meet your many demanding requirements. Beginning with a statement, there are many mistakes in the MONTRAIL product description of Extreme House's website. Hopefully it can be corrected. For example: Comp XCR's soles are actually described as V-bottoms. Such details will mislead consumers and hope they can be corrected. Now for the topic, first look at the technical indicators of the Comp XCR all-round shoes:

The first thing to put aside the product itself is not to say, just the Comp XCR uses XCR breathable materials, plus MONTRAIL's brand, in the middle to help set, leather net mix, the price of this 1180 is very competitive, but only the price It is not enough. Let's look at things first.
Comp XCR's upper structure is very unique: 2 mm New Bark leather is the main body of the upper, while supporting the nylon mesh fabric and suede leather, and then spliced ​​together, regardless of the sense of hierarchy or color, are very Full, and this design has very good practical meaning. It makes the whole pair of shoes fit the foot shape of your feet and provides a more comfortable bending experience at the bend. It also uses a rubber toe cap, but it does not use a paste similar to Traverse GTX. Instead, it is stitched directly onto the upper with a three-pronged string (note that this is a three-pronged line, which is not available on other MONTRAIL products.) !), sufficient strength guarantee.
Please pay attention to the three lines of the spelling structure and the Baotou
Only with the help of the design, pulled the hearts of many girls (many friends do not like high shoes), while the effect of the parcel of the ankle is better, more convenient to protect, but also enough to meet the general outdoor activities of the waterproof requirements. The feminine colors of this pair of shoes are indeed heavier. The above figure should show that both the color of the shoelace buckle and the MONTRAIL trademark are all red and typical women's colors. In fact, this is not the most obvious. Everyone looks at it. The heel, a large red MONTRAIL trademark LOGO, is even more exaggerated is a red factory plastic shoe strap, very very conspicuous.
Red is the highlight of this pair of shoes
Another strange thing is that this pair of shoes does not use V-bottom at all, but uses FasTrax carbonized rubber. I don't know why. The specific effect can only be tested in practice.
Not familiar with the yellow V, is not used to it?
Besides the details of this pair of shoes, I would specifically mention the shoelace clasps. This pair of shoes also discarded the metal clasps that MONTRAIL prefers. Instead, it uses a nylon webbing shoelace clasp, but it looks like it is a nylon belt. It's time to do it. It's really careful. Please look at the picture first:
Nylon shoelace buckle with internal metal barrel
Yes, the inside of the nylon buckle directly wears a metal tube that can handle any problem with the lace. Look at the other shoelace perforations, again using metal buckles for protection.
The biggest problem with this lace perforation is that it is difficult to wear shoelaces, but this is a once and for all thing. It is worth paying for the first time.
The rubber tail of the shoe's tail is also a three-point line, which is amazing!
Sanken Line
The minor problem in production is that the viscose is treated more casually and there are many traces left.
Talk about the actual wearing feelings, very good foot, very fit, no running-in problems, soles due to the steel plate, so rude enough, what the road can deal with, and the skid is quite good, not worse than the V bottom, but it is not very wearable. Anti-water pumping is good, breathable. The attachment of the gang and ankle is very helpful. Shock absorption has a certain effect, especially when running, so this shoe is suitable for running a mountain. However, the vamp is relatively easy to stick to gray, nylon shoes slightly tip, and easy to absorb water.
in conclusion:
Applicable people: like red friends, friends who like to run the mountain, friends who do not carry out strong activities, sweat friends
Applicable environment: Winter is not recommended (North), wading through the ankle is not recommended, especially suitable for mountain off-road activities and light activities
