Trail Running Shoes Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a running shoe and a trail shoe?

Trail shoes are like more rugged cousins of running shoes. Both offer comfort, but trail running shoes add grippy lugs to handle rocks and roots. They're tougher — with more protective uppers and sometimes rock plates — and sturdier — with stiffer soles for navigating uneven terrain. Running shoes bring speed, and trail shoes bring stability. Visit our blog for tips on how to choose running shoes.

Can you use trail running shoes for everyday running?

Trail shoes can work for everyday runs, with caveats. They offer great grip and support, but they can be heavier and less flexible than dedicated road shoes. Consider your priorities: If comfort and grip outweigh weight, go for trails runners. But for pure speed and road feel, stick to dedicated running shoes.

Are trail running shoes good for walking?

Trail runners can be great for casual walks and gentle hikes. Lighter and more flexible than hiking boots, trail shoes offer cushioned comfort, grippy traction and stable support. However, in wet and muddy conditions, waterproof boots might be a better option. And if you plan to walk on rough or bumpy trails, boots offer more stability.
