Reviews
Unbelievable Running Shoe ready for Any Enivronment
"This is my second pair of craft running shoes and they are the best running brand I have used in a long time. The sneakers strikes the perfect balance, between protective and cushioned underfoot with great stability on mixed terrain, whether transitioning straight from the road onto hard-packed dirt or gravel. The redesigned upper feels locked-in and breathable with zero heel slip. My legs feel remarkably fresh after longer efforts. I have had issues running with other brands, but with Craft I feel great during and after the runs"

"What a wonderful boutique running brand. Excellent"

Nordlite Ultra 2 Review
"I really enjoy this shoe as a hybrid road-trail shoe. As a runner in Chicago, there are trails that are runnable from my apartment, but sometimes require more than a typical road shoe. Enter the Nordlite Ultra 2. Amazing grip on light trails and roads, poppy and light midsole and super smooth ride throughout. I would definitely choose other shoes for technical trails, but for long miles on gravel or packed dirt, these are the go to. Fit is perfect, laces stay tight and generally just a very comfortable shoe. Well done Craft! I was provided this product in exchange for my honest feedback and review."
— Alexsander K. (5/5)
"My husband absolutely loves them and wears them! I have a pair too. The comfort is amazing"

9/10!
"The Craft Nordlite Ultra 2 Running Shoes are incredibly comfortable and versatile for gravel, light trails, and mixed-surface running. The cushioning feels great on long runs, the grip is reliable, and they handle uneven terrain really well without feeling bulky. The only reason I wouldn’t rate them higher is that I noticed some pronation while road running, so they may work best with custom insoles or orthotics if you need extra support on pavement. For gravel-focused training though, they’ve been excellent."
— Tyler R. (4/5)
Trail shoe worthy of road miles
"I really enjoyed my miles in the craft nordlite ultra 2. Ive used them on a mixed terrain of gravel, sand, packed dirt and brief time on roads. This shoe feels really balanced and ready to run fast, while feeling really good at casual paces also. The upper took a little bit of time to break in, which I wasnt surprised with due to my previous experience in Craft shoes. Still a bit on the snug side, but overall I was very happy with this shoe, and it will likely stay in my running rotation moving forward"
— Matt b. (4/5)
Responsive, smooth, and great distance trainer
"I have been running ultra distances and mixed trail races in new hampshire for a few years now and this is definitely a awesome long distance training shoe. The cushion is light responsive and propulsive. You can feel what you are stepping on in a way so ur brain knows its there but it doesn’t go through the cushion. Its upper is nice, breathable and light which is is perfect. Not many critiques honestly on this shoe besides maybe it is like 1/3 of a size small fitting for me but not crazy. Ankle lock is good and laces are actually long enough for this which is rare ha . Awesome cruiser and does decent on more techincal stuff! Def recommend this for anyone looking for a great gravel race or trainer for long days!"
— James (5/5)
Great gravel shoe for narrower toe boxes
"Weeks of trail running in these baddies culminated at the frozen Lake of the Angels in the Olympic Mountains. It was a near blue bird day in the 60s and 70s but trail conditions ranged from scree scrambling to post-hole snow up to my knees. My feet dried out and warmed up sunning on a rock at the half way point and we made it back no problem. These shoes were great in every condition except snow obviously but you don’t want trail runners to be waterproof, you want them to have a quick reset button and dry out fast which these did. The Nordlite Ultra 2. 0 are floaty road running shoes with a good tread slapped on and I’m here for it. If you’re in the wide toe box camp these aren’t for you but I’ve been on the fence for a while and may be reconverted. Craft gave me these shoes for free in exchange for my honest review"
— Steven (4/5)
Great Road to Trail shoe!
"After putting on a number of trail miles I find the shoe to be comfortable and stable. I was happy with the performance. They worked great on road as well as trail - I didn't test in any extreme conditions or extremely rugged trails, but they have held up well. The shoes feel light on the feet , which is always a nice feature especially when they maintain that stability. I would recommend to folks that run on gravel roads primarily but they did work great on the my local trails. I recently did a 40 mile run on the Tonto trail in the grand canyon, I do think these should would have been great for this as I am finding that I liked the 6mm drop a lot, as someone who typically goes in 0mm to 3mm range, I have been slightly converted. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review."
