Whether you're hitting dirt paths, gravel trails, or mixed surfaces, this shoe gives you the traction and protection to move confidently without sacrificing comfort underfoot.The VersaRun foam midsole delivers a softer, more cushioned feel than you might expect from a trail shoe at this price point - great for longer outings where your feet need support from start to finish. The XT-600 carbon rubber outsole features 4mm lugs that dig in on loose or uneven ground, keeping you stable when the trail gets technical.
