Rabbit High Country Review
"From fire roads to rocky singletrack, it has been nothing short of a versatile workhorse. Much like I once trained my dog Diesel, I took the shoe a little farther with each outing, building trust in its ability to handle more. Over 250 miles later, what has impressed me most is the cushioning. It's soft enough to stay comfortable over long miles, yet stable enough to inspire confidence on uneven ground."
"This highly cushioned trail shoe has 38-millimeter stack height at the heel and 33 millimeters at the forefoot, resulting in a 5-millimeter drop. The shoe has an actual weight of 11.7 ounces (331 grams) for a U.S. men's 9. If you're a fellow fan of the Hoka Speedgoat 6, I'm willing to go out on a limb and suggest you may find similar levels of comfort and protection for long hauls in the rabbit High Country."

Tested over 250 miles during training for a local 100-mile, the rabbit High Country proved to be a versatile trail shoe across fire roads, rocky singletrack, and wet crossings. The shoe delivers plush cushioning with a 38mm heel and 33mm forefoot (5mm drop), weighing 11.7 ounces (331 g) in U.S. men's 9. The upper uses 60% recycled engineered mesh that breathes and dries well despite a denser weave. Cushioning balances softness for long miles with enough stability for uneven terrain. Comfort and protection are comparable to the Hoka Speedgoat 6 for long-distance use.
