The Superior is a low-swooping speedster, though it’s only for midfoot strikers—the thin foam and lack of drop don’t pair well with back-of-the-foot pounders. But don’t think these shoes are weak on defense. While it doesn't get much liftoff, there’s a full-length removable rock plate for confidence on scree and just enough cush to forget the trail without losing precision while moving quickly.

REI borrowed elements from a parachute to create a flat surface that holds its shape well enough that you can sleep on your side without feeling like you’re sinking into a tarp taco. Lightweight stabilizer bars at each end hold the hammock open, while six webbing straps evenly distribute tension. Thanks to the hanging shelter’s intuitive, versatile design, you can sleep on either side—one with a bug fly and one without.
