Why choose trail running shoes?
Trail running shoes are specially designed to cope with the demands of running on trails and uneven terrain. Unlike standard running shoes, they feature technical characteristics suited to uneven surfaces: a more grippy sole, better foot protection and enhanced support. Choosing a good pair of suitable trail running shoes means you’ll benefit from better grip on paths, rocks or wet ground.
For your training sessions on the road or on a treadmill, you’re better off opting for a pair of clearance running shoes suited to these activities.
How to choose your trail running shoes?
Your choice of trail running shoes depends mainly on your ability level, the terrain you’ll be running on and your goals. Before buying a new pair, there are several factors to consider.
The terrain you run on
The choice of a trail running shoe depends first and foremost on the trails you run on.
For easy trails or less technical terrain, opt for versatile models offering a good balance between comfort and grip. For more demanding mountain trails, with rocks, roots or significant elevation changes, choose shoes that offer greater protection, stability and grip.
Some shoes are also designed for muddy or wet terrain, featuring soles with deeper lugs.
Your running ability
Your trail running experience also influences your choice of kit.
Beginner runners will generally prefer a comfortable, versatile shoe with good cushioning to help them get started with confidence.
More experienced trail runners may look for more technical, lighter models that offer greater responsiveness to improve their performance on the trails.
The distance covered
The type of distance you cover is an important factor when choosing your trail running shoes.
For short runs or occasional trail runs, a versatile and comfortable shoe will generally suffice. For long distances, mountain trails or ultra-trails, it is advisable to opt for a model offering good cushioning, long-lasting support and enhanced comfort.
Grip and the outsole
The outsole is an essential component of a trail running shoe. It ensures good grip on different types of terrain and improves stability whilst running.
Depending on your running style, choose a suitable outsole:
- deeper lugs for muddy or technical terrain;
- a versatile sole for dry paths and easy trails;
- good grip to make descents and tricky sections safer.

FAQ:
What’s the difference between trail running shoes and running shoes?
Running shoes are mainly designed for running on roads, tracks or treadmills, whilst trail shoes are suited to trails and natural terrain. They generally offer better grip, enhanced protection and superior support to tackle uneven terrain.
When should you replace your trail running shoes?
It’s generally advisable to replace your trail running shoes after several hundred kilometres, depending on how often you use them, the type of terrain and the condition of the sole. A loss of grip, reduced cushioning or significant wear and tear are signs that it’s time for a new pair.
Which trail running shoes should you choose as a beginner?
If you’re new to trail running, opt for a versatile shoe offering good comfort, suitable cushioning and good grip. Models such as the Salomon Speedcross, Adidas Terrex Agravic or Asics Gel-Trabuco are suitable for beginners thanks to their comfort and versatility on a variety of trails.
Can you go hiking in trail running shoes?
Yes, trail running shoes can be suitable for many hikes, particularly short or fast-paced ones. They’re lightweight, comfortable and offer good grip.
Are trail running shoes waterproof?
Some trail running shoes feature a waterproof membrane to better protect your feet from moisture. However, not all trail running shoes are waterproof: the choice depends on the model and the conditions in which you’re running.
