READ: BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO TRAIL RUNNING / HOW TO LOOK AFTER YOUR TRAIL KIT
Your connection to the ground is everything. A pair of men's trail running shoes provides the solution, featuring aggressive outsoles for unwavering grip on slick rock and soft ground, while protective uppers shield your feet from impacts. This is matched with a system of trail running clothing, including shorts made from snag-resistant fabrics and packable waterproof running jackets. This layering approach means you can adapt instantly to sudden shifts in weather, staying protected without breaking your stride.
Stay self-sufficient on long adventures. A common problem is carrying water and kit without it bouncing; our running backpacks and vests solve this with a stable, close-to-body fit. For runs that start early or end late, a powerful head torch is non-negotiable for safety. It lights up the path, letting you navigate technical ground with precision long after the sun has set.
