The Speedgoat 6 is one of our favorite trail running shoes, and the mid-cut version is now available in men's and women's sizes for just $134.94 at REI.
This trail-ready shoe boasts a breathable, 100% recycled polyester mesh upper and waterproof Gore-Tex membrane to keep you dry and maximize airflow when the rain closes in.

Trail running expert Julia Clarke was thoroughly impressed by this model's comfort and stability in her review for Advnture.
"The grip is truly goat-level, and I remained upright coming down steep and loose trails," said Julia.
"These shoes are also impressively stable, even on those rocky alpine trails where a rolled ankle is almost a given. The wide geometry, lower drop and firmer midsole all mean I can move quite confidently in these almost no matter what is underfoot."
