Lugs are good for dirt but watch em on pavement. I've got the vff trek sports and love em hiking and decided to try them running (week 2 or 3 of c25K) and found the lugs create some hot spots, right at the base of my big toes where there's a ridge from the lugs. Pretty certain they'd blister if I'd stayed in them longer. Don't notice it at all on dirt.
