    Trail runners don't have a heel, so slide more in mud/downhill etc.

    The rule of thumb is the more weight you are carrying, the stiffer the shank needed in your footwear, so trail runners are no good for carrying heavy loads.
    I'm tempted to take mine to use as day-hunt footwear on a multi-day trip.
