While most of the shoes on this list are designed to protect your feet from the trails, the Minimus 10v1 is meant to help your feet experience the trails. Its firm and flexible sole separates you from the ground by only 15 mm at the heel and 11 mm in the forefoot. At just 6.4 ounces, the Minimus is also the lightest shoe on this list, making it a great option for faster running and trail races.
