any suggestions for a trail shoe with a 12 mm heel drop?
You can easily make a 10mm drop shoe into a 12mm drop shoe by adding two layers of crafts felt under the insert in the heel area. You can buy 9x12" sections of crafts felt at Walmart for a quarter. Just turn the insert upside down and trim a piece of felt to fit the back 2" of the insert. If you just want to try it first, you can make the heel insert pieces out of any cloth. Two layers of crafts felt will add about 2 - 2 1/2mm of lift to the shoe.
BTW, adding more than two layers (about 2.5mm) of felt under the heel of the insert makes the shoe feel awkward.
You mean heel rise? This is heel drop.
