How to choose your trail running shoes?

Choosing trail running shoes should not be done at random. Several criteria must be taken into account in order to find the model best suited to your practice and your terrain.

First of all, the type of terrain is decisive. For muddy or soft trails, choose outsoles with deep lugs for optimal grip. On rocky or technical terrain, opt instead for shoes offering more protection and stability.

Next, cushioning should be chosen according to your distances. Generous cushioning will be ideal for long runs or ultra-trail running, while a more dynamic model will be better suited to short distances and faster runners.

Support and stability are also essential, especially in the mountains or on rugged terrain. A well-structured shoe helps secure your footing and limit the risk of injury.

Finally, comfort and size remain essential. It is recommended to choose half a size above your usual size to avoid impacts at the front of the foot, especially on descents.

By taking these different elements into account, you will be able to choose trail running shoes perfectly suited to your needs and fully enjoy your outings safely.

Our recommendations for the right trail running equipment

To ensure your trail runs take place in the best conditions, even at night, equip yourself with a headlamp to light your paths. Petzl headlamps are renowned as a reference for powerful lighting. In addition, by getting a GPS sports watch, you will be well equipped from head to toe!
