I've been doing a lot of trail running lately with Daisy and could use some better shoes. I'm running in Brooks Ghosts, but I feel like I'm trashing them. The trails I normally run have been pretty soaked lately from all the rain we've had, so I'm often going through deep puddles and would like something water resistant. Also a lot of rocks and roots that have been pretty slick with our damp weather and I'd like a more grippy tread. Any recs?

I have a pair of waterproof Hoka Challenger GoreTex. I bought them because I run in the rain a lot in Fall and Winter since I live in Seattle’s area. I’ve never had wet feet with them. I believe they come in both low and high top versions. They’re pretty light and have that nice Hoka cushioning.

I have two pairs of Hoka Challenger Gore-Tex shoes that mostly sit on the shelf. I had high hopes for them because I have a history with Hoka shoes, but these were duds as far as I'm concerned.

They do make Brooks Ghost GTX that have the waterproof Gortex upper, but I don't think the sole is anymore aggressive than the regular road shoe, or have a stone shield.
I have a pair of Asics Gel FujiTrabuco on orders and awaiting their arrival with upcoming winter.

Thanks for the suggestions! Great places to start.
