Hi all, I have difficult feet and found two pairs that I like, one is more road oriented the other more trail with more agressive lugs. Can any give me a tough guess what percentage of the VdlP/Sanabres is tarmac or pavement?

There is very little road where you cannot walk off to the side on real dirt. I'd get the trail version of the shoes.
