In dry trails I use Asics Fujitrabucos, which are fine for all day wear on hard surfaces. When it’s muddy, I use mudclaws and find them ok on roads too, except that they will probably wear out a bit more quickly

Just a quick update that I got the Hierro 7 and I really like them. The fit is great - I was initially a bit concerned they may be too narrow for me, but they’re fine.
I’ve done a couple of runs, each containing some road, gravel, mud, gloop, tree roots etc, and they’re great. Grip from the outsole is very good, and the midsole has enough cushioning for me.
I’ve nothing much to compare them to, but I’m really pleased with them, so thanks for the suggestion.

Nudging this thread to life again.
Anyone tried the new Inov8 Mudtalon? I got a wide pair tried a few times before Lakeland 100 but dropped with sore left foot at Dalemain. I put this down to leaving my laces too tight with thick double socks and swelling.
However did 4mi today in them, mix of fell / trail / road and it felt like my left foot was falling in / collapsing, quite sore on the outer edge.
Not had this issue with any other shoes so interested to see anyone’s experience with the Mudtalon?

Call me a sceptic, but I wouldn't say the Mudtalon can be considered a "cushioned trail shoe". I bet you'd have more luck on the fellrunners group.

Was planning on posting on both as it’s cushioned but like you say fell rather than trail, but tea arrived so I got interrupted!

Speedgoat. Unless grip is really needed the best I’ve ever worn
