Cross country season is here, and three brands are coming at the mud from completely different angles. Here's who each of these spikes is actually built for.

Nike Rival XC 7 — the workhorse. Built for XC runners of every level. Draining open-hole mesh, reinforced toe box, and a full-length Waffle outsole with six spikes. One spike that handles a whole season.

On Cloudspike XC — the racer. On's first XC spike, and it's a thoroughbred. Helion HF super-shoe foam for an explosive kick, six-pin plate for the turns. Built for the podium, not easy days.

Brooks Draft XC Spike — the light one. Just 6.5 oz, but shockingly cushioned — your legs feel fresh after a 6K. Six spikes for the mud, plus a white upper you can write your goals on.
