Roclite 6mm studs and quite well spaced out, trailroc 4mm studs and a lot closer together. So trailroc best for drier, stonier conditions, roclite better for mixed, muddier conditions (although obvs if really muddy then x-talon or mudclaw would be better)

I have a pair that I bought as my first pair of trail shoes in a sale and are now my standing in the mud before and after XC shoe.
