The new Flight 30 Ultra Running Pack is an evolution of Six Moon Designs’ previous 2018 Ultralight model geared towards runners and fastpackers. This frameless, customizable-fit pack has a relatively slim profile that rides close to the body, which comes in handy for trail running or hiking through dense brush, and is well-suited for overnight adventures in the backcountry.

We tried two new shirt options from Ibex’s summer 2021 lineup. Both are soft, lightweight, odor resistant and temperature regulating; we tested them on cool and foggy coastal trails, as well as temps in the high 90s. Both feature classic styling and exceptional comfort that is true to the company’s heritage, which makes them equally suitable for athletic or leisure pursuits.

Speedland has made an outstanding trail shoe in the SL:PDX. Between the secure fit, responsive midsole and strong traction, there’s virtually nothing holding you back from running fast on all kinds of terrain, and there are enough comfort elements to keep you rolling during ultra-distance outings. If you have enough disposable income and share the company’s “no compromises” approach to your training and racing, this shoe is certainly capable of helping you accomplish those objectives.

New to the La Sportiva lineup this year, the Cyklon is a dedicated mountain running shoe that represents years of collaboration between La Sportiva and the BOA company. The Cyklon is an excellent choice for traversing steep terrain, and the BOA lacing system provides a secure fit on technical surfaces.

The primary change to the Mafate Speed 3 is the upper, which replaces the previous monomesh material with a recycled polyester mesh. This is in line with HOKA’s ongoing sustainability initiatives and thus far, we have been pleasantly surprised at how well the uppers have held up after about 300 miles of testing, including some thick bushwhacking adventures.
