Offtrail Ultra Trail Running Shoe - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I tested the Offtrail Ultra Trail Running Shoe on a long mountain push that mixed runnable trail with technical scrambling, and the dual-density DREAMBOUND midsole genuinely surprised me with how well it balanced cushioning and ground feel across both. The SCREEGUARD gaiter kept debris out all day without ever feeling restrictive, and the scrambling zone at the toe gave me real confidence on exposed rock moves I would normally slow way down for."

The trails worth running are rarely the easy ones, and the North Face Offtrail Ultra Trail Running Shoe was built in direct collaboration with North Face athletes who know exactly what demanding mountain terrain asks of a shoe. From the moment the gradient steepens and the trail surface turns technical, every design decision in this shoe starts earning its place. A lightweight seamless dual-wrap forefoot keeps the fit locked and friction-free, while hydrophobic ripstop at the rear quarter sheds moisture without adding weight. The integrated SCREEGUARD gaiter stretches easily for entry and then seals out scree, grit, and debris through miles of terrain that would fill a standard shoe in minutes.

The dual-density DREAMBOUND nitrogen super-foam midsole is the engineering story at the heart of the Offtrail Ultra Trail Running Shoe. A firmer outer and bottom layer delivers the durability and protection needed on rocky, unpredictable surfaces, while a softer inner layer rebounds underfoot for all-day comfort through big vertical days. At just 9.3 ounces per half pair and a 29mm heel stack with 6mm offset, the shoe stays low and light without sacrificing the cushioning needed to keep legs fresh through long descents. The full-length SURFACE CTRL outsole uses THINWEB technology to reduce outsole weight without compromising grip, and 5mm lugs bite into technical and rocky terrain with confidence. The scrambling zone built into the toe was developed directly from athlete feedback and delivers the kind of grip on exposed rock that makes committing to a technical line feel like a reasonable decision rather than a gamble.
