A tall-heeled lifting shoe that feels lighter and slimmer on the foot than its main rivals, with a solid plastic heel that refuses to give under load. The narrow toe box is the sticking point, and the price is the highest in its class.

Hoka Anacapa 2 Low GTX review: Gore-Tex, a Vibram Megagrip outsole and Hoka cushioning for hiking.

The Salomon X Ultra 5 Mid Gore-Tex is a lightweight waterproof hiking boot built for stability, grip and long days on mixed terrain. We review its fit, cushioning, waterproofing, wide sizing, traction and how it compares with the Merrell Moab 3 and Keen Targhee IV.

Puma's marathon racer has shed a serious amount of weight and picked up a stiffer plate, which finally puts it alongside the best race shoes rather than just near them. It is superb over 26.2 miles. The price and the narrow, race-only fit are the barriers.

A women's comfort sneaker built around a stretchy, seam-free upper and an insole whose arch height you can raise yourself. It is aimed at feet that hurt in ordinary shoes, from bunions to swollen toes. The chunky orthopedic look and the lack of published pricing are the things to weigh up.

Just about the lightest and thinnest minimal shoe available, with a Vibram outsole that grips far better than its weight suggests. It is a superb tool for foot strengthening and short trail work, provided you accept that the sole wears quickly and there is nothing between you and the ground.

One of the thinnest, most flexible barefoot shoes you can buy, with a wide toe box and a sole that lets you feel almost everything underfoot. It is superb in the gym and around a city, but the light vegan upper is not built to survive rough ground or heavy mileage.

A chunky Y2K-styled sneaker that turns out to be a surprisingly capable everyday shoe, thanks to layers of cushioning borrowed from New Balance's running heritage. It is heavy and it runs snug, so it rewards people who want comfort in a shoe that does not look like a comfort shoe.

A slip-on sneaker with a spring-back heel that genuinely lets you step in without bending down, which matters enormously for some people and not at all for others. It is comfortable and easy to live with on pavements and indoors, but you pay a premium for the mechanism.

The rare lifting shoe that combines a tall heel with room for wide feet, which makes it the obvious pick for lifters squeezed by the alternatives. It is also the heaviest shoe in its class, and the update over the previous version amounts to little more than an inflatable tongue.

A tall, rockered trail shoe that smooths out hard-packed ground and keeps tired legs moving late in a long run. It suits smoother trails and steady efforts rather than rocky scrambles. The firm ride and the muted ground feel are what divide opinion.

Merrell Moab 3 review: a Vibram TC5+ outsole, a roomy fit and the most comfortable Moab out of the box.
