We have stopped this being a mandatory kit item as, with the growing market of cross over shoes (Ultra specific shoes etc), it has become impossible for us to reasonably vet. Not only will you have a safer event, but you will have a more enjoyable experience if you have appropriate footwear - hence we encourage all participants to wear trail shoes.
