Men's Trail Running Shoes Frequently Asked Questions

Can trail shoes be used for running?

Trail running shoes are a great choice for mixed terrain or primarily off-road running. However, if you plan to run on pavement, the softer rubber and more pronounced lugs on trail runners may wear down faster than road-specific shoes. Men's trail running shoes are also a better choice for running than trail hiking shoes, which tend to be a bit heavier.

What's the difference between running shoes and trail running shoes?

Shoes made for road running have flatter outsoles for pavement, softer cushioning and lighter, breathable uppers. Men's trail running shoes feature aggressive lugs for off-road grip, firmer midsoles (often with rock plates) and more durable, protective uppers. Trail shoes prioritise stability on uneven terrain, while regular running shoes focus on cushioning and flexibility for smooth surfaces. Choose based on your primary running environment.

Is it OK to wear trail running shoes on a treadmill?

It's OK in a pinch, but it's not recommended for several reasons. First, the aggressive lugs and stickier rubber on trail shoe outsoles could grip the treadmill belt too much. Over time, this could contribute to premature wear or even damage to the belt and motor. Conversely, the hard, consistent surface of a treadmill could wear down trail shoe outsoles more quickly than softer surfaces like dirt and mud. Finally, men's trail running shoes are often heavier and less flexible than road running shoes. This could make your treadmill runs feel more laboured and even wobbly.
