Trail running shoes

Trail running shoes are designed to provide better grip, stability and protection on trails, roots, rocks, mud and mountain trails. At Outdoor Buddies Shop you will find carefully selected trail shoes for everything from short forest runs and technical trails to long runs, mountain runs and ultra running.

We choose models that we would use ourselves in Nordic conditions, where grip, fit and control are at least as important as cushioning. The range includes both lightweight and responsive shoes for faster runs and more cushioned and protective models for longer distances.

Choose your trail shoe based on the terrain you run on most. Deeper studs are better for mud and soft trails, while a more versatile outsole works better on mixed terrain. For technical trail and mountain running, we recommend a stable shoe with secure heel grip, toe protection, and good ground contact.

We usually prefer quick-drying trail shoes over fully waterproof models. In cold and wet conditions, we prefer to complement with waterproof socks for a more flexible solution.
