How to choose your trail running shoes
Trail running shoes should offer grip, durability, and comfort – all while enabling you to adapt to varying trail conditions, from unpredictable weather to varying terrains. By understanding the design and technology of each Brooks trail running shoe model, you can find the pair that's best for your trail running needs.

The Caldera is ideal for the distance trail runner that needs cushioned, protective comfort while they run mile 1— or 100.
Ultra trails
The Cascadia is for trail runners looking for an adaptable shoe that can take on all terrain and provide necessary comfort.
Trail competitions
The Catamount is ideal for competitive trail runners that require responsive and protective characteristics to help them ascend all-terrain trails. If you compete in short, fast trail races including VK-40K events, the Catamount Agil is the shoe for you.

What is trail running?
It’s a simple enough concept — get out in nature and go running in it. You can find running trails in the mountains, through a park, on the coast, or really on any unpaved path. Wondering how to get started? Read more trail running tips from our experts, and you'll be running on the beaten path in no time.
What are trail running shoes?
Trail running shoes offer more traction and protection on the trails compared to road running shoes. You'll notice a more lugged, grippy outsole material as well as a more structured outsole to protect your feet from any jagged roots or rocks.
Can you use trail running shoes on the road?
Trail running shoes have great traction with their tacky outsole and deep lugs, which you will likely not need on the road. It might not feel as comfortable as your road running shoes, as they often have a smooth outsole and cushioned/supportive midsole. That doesn't mean you can't take your trail running shoes to the road, but it might not feel as soft and the lugs might wear down a bit faster.
