Does the job

4/5

Overall

I run in the Pure Cadence on the road but needed a little more grip on the trails (horse trails not very treacherous) These did the job... similar to the Pure Cadence. I actually like the tongue better in the Pure Grit (weird tongue is my only small complaint on the Pure Cadence)
