Kara Williard reviews the Faction Dancer 3X for Blister.

2022-2023 Faction Dancer 3X

David Golay reviews the Shimano AM903 for Blister

Shimano AM903 Shoe

by
The Shimano AM9 has been their top-tier gravity clipless shoe for a long time now (and a personal favorite of ours), and while the latest AM903 generation is mostly a case of leaving a good thing alone, it’s got some nice refinements over the earlier iterations.

Dylan Wood and Luke Koppa review the Line Blade Optic 96 for Blister

2022-2023 Line Blade Optic 96

by
Line's brand-new Blade Optic 96 is an extremely versatile all-mountain ski that isn't easily pigeonholed into a particular category, which is exactly why so many people should have it on their lists. Check out our Full Review & Deep Dive comparisons for the whole story.

Under Armour Charged Bandit Trail 2

by
Most people don’t associate Under Armour with trail running — but the brand’s new do-everything shoe, the Charged Bandit Trail 2, just might change that. The latest model from UA was designed with accessibility for novice runners in mind, and to that effect, we think the Charged Bandit Trail 2 could be a pretty competent option for a lot of people — not just those venturing off-road for the first time.

Altra Timp 4

by
Altra could have easily gotten away with making a few minor tweaks when updating their high-cushioned Timp; instead, the brand completely reengineered the Timp 4 from the ground up. Check out our review to see what we think of all the new changes.
