graphene foam makes these travel shoes remarkable

The INOV-8 TRAILFLY ULTRA 300 G MAX fits all the requirements for a perfect travel and then some. When I was doing my research for the next all-around travel shoes, I wanted a pair of shoes that I know can handle any terrain in any condition and one that would be comfortable to wear on hours on end. Many shoes have the same similar specification such as eva shoes and synthetic upper mesh. There is nothing to differentiate them from a technical standpoint until I found these pair of INOV-8 TRAILFLY ULTRA 300 G MAX shoes.

When choosing shoes you will bring to your next travel, it is important to consider the following four requirements.

  • Comfort: This is the most important factor, as you will likely be doing a lot of walking on your trip on various terrain. From walking on modern sidewalks of a city to the rocky dirt roads of the countryside. The shoes you pick should be ready to handle all kinds of terrain comfortably.
  • Lightweight: You don’t want to pack heavy shoes, especially if you are traveling light. Choose shoes that are made from lightweight materials, such as mesh or canvas.
  • Durable: Travel shoes should be able to withstand the rigors of travel. Look for shoes that are well-made and have sturdy soles.
  • Versatile: You may want to pack just one or two pairs of shoes for your trip, so it is important to choose shoes that are versatile and can be dressed up or down. Choose shoes that can handle both dry and wet environment with ease so nothing stops you from enjoying your travels.
