Mudtalon Speed

Released in 2024, the MUDTALON SPEED is the exciting result of our 20+ years’ experience in creating running shoes for soft, muddy ground.

We launched it amongst five other shoes, including its deeper cushioned sibling, the MUDTALON.

The MUDTALON SPEED is a lightweight master of mud, with a fast-feel ride and the perfect for grip for soft-ground trail and fell running. But don’t just take our word for it, check out what reviewers have to say below.

What the reviewers say

“Incredible grip over tricky surfaces, drains water quickly and offers impressive amounts of comfort in a lightweight package” – Runner’s World UK

“Probably my favourite INOV8 shoe ever in terms of soft-ground shoes” – The Run Testers 

“You get a hell of a shoe. I feel like you can use it for 100 milers like I did, but also on shorter distances too. Also, not only on rocky terrain but also mud, snow, and dirt. It’s really an amazing shoe, I’m kind of obsessed” – Believe In The Run

“For soft, wet conditions where grip and comfort are essential, this is a lightweight, high-performance model that excels in every department” – Athletics Weekly

“Fits my foot shape like a glove and is super dialled in at the heel. It felt more like an extension to my foot rather than running in trail shoes” – Run 4 Adventure

“It eats sludge for breakfast, chewing through muck, and begging for more by lunchtime” – American Trail Running Association

“Ideal for filthy fun, the shoe works like a claw, gripping the ground and protecting you from spills no matter how mucky the hills” - Advnture

“An excellent upgrade, and I’ll be continuing to use it as my weapon of choice to battle the elements over the wet winter period” – Run Ultra

“One of the best trail-running shoes for soft ground, with its exceptional grip shining brightest on fast runs in the mud” - Coach Mag

“Great work on the grip INOV8, and that’s why I score the outsole 9 out of 10” – Seth DeMoor
