Cascadia Elite Trail Running Shoe

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I raced a rocky mountain 50k in the Cascadia Elite Trail Running Shoe, and the propulsion plate genuinely made the climbs feel less brutal by the final miles. The Vibram Megagrip Elite outsole held on through loose scree and wet rock without a single sketchy moment."

Race morning has a specific kind of energy, that mix of nerves and excitement right before the gun goes off, and the Brooks Cascadia Elite Trail Running Shoe is built for exactly that moment. We love how this shoe locks in from the first stride, holding your foot secure through the sharp turns and loose descents that separate a good trail race from a great one.

Under the hood, DNA GOLD PEBA cushioning and a Pebax propulsion plate work together to give every stride a little extra push, so late-race legs still have something left to give. Pair that with a Vibram Megagrip Elite outsole built to grip everything from wet granite to loose gravel, and a MATRYX woven upper reinforced with Kevlar fibers for a true race day fit, and you've got a shoe engineered for the runners chasing a personal best, not just a finish.
