Perfect connection to the trail: running shoes built for control
Steep climbs, rough terrain, sudden weather shifts—trail running pushes your limits. So what if your shoes didn’t just keep up but helped you stay one step ahead? Today’s high-performance trail running shoes do exactly that, giving you control, stability, and confidence with every stride.
Why control is everything on the trail
Whether you're navigating rocky ridges, muddy slopes, or winding forest paths, trail running is as much about surefootedness as it is about stamina. When footing gets sketchy, even the fittest runners can slip, slow down, or risk injury.
That’s why the right shoes matter. You need trail runners that deliver control, cushioning, and traction—built to handle the unexpected.
Fit and support: it starts with comfort
Control starts with a secure fit. A sock-like construction molds to your foot, reducing pressure points and preventing rubbing—especially over longer distances. Seamless uppers like Skinknit® wrap the foot comfortably, offering a natural, distraction-free feel.
Cushioning and energy return: smoother strides up and down
Trail surfaces change fast. That’s why a responsive midsole matters. A high-rebound EVA midsole delivers the perfect balance between shock absorption and energy return—keeping you nimble uphill and protected on descents.
Stability and protection: keeping you upright
Twisted ankles, stumbles, sharp rocks—trail runners know the risks. That’s why foot guidance and protection features like the Trail Suppronation® Bandage and 3D Heel Cage are key. They stabilize the foot without limiting your natural range of motion.
Outsole and grip: because traction isn’t optional
Good grip isn’t just helpful—it’s essential. On wet, muddy, or loose terrain, every millimeter of traction matters. Vibram Megagrip rubber and aggressive 3.5 mm lugs offer superior grip and agility so you can run with confidence.
Trail running redefined: the X-Bionic Terraskin
The X-Bionic Terraskin isn’t just a shoe—it’s a system. Pairing cutting-edge footwear with a purpose-built performance sock, it reimagines what trail support can be.
What you get: precise control, effective cushioning, and climate-regulating comfort—from your first step to the last push up the summit.
- Skinknit® upper: seamless, elastic, and tongue-free—it fits like a second skin and eliminates pressure points.
- Speedframe® tech: fuses upper and sole for powerful, efficient strides.
- High-rebound EVA midsole: absorbs impact and returns energy when you need it most.
- Vibram Megagrip with Spinweave® tread: delivers top-tier traction on wet, rocky, and unstable surfaces.
- Open-cell insole with vent channels: keeps your feet cool and dry—even on long runs.
- X-Socks with Suppronation® Bandage and Gripfix® yarn: support ankle stability, enhance stride mechanics—and match your shoes in style.
What does that means for you? Simply put: you can run farther, safer, and more efficiently. This system of materials and biomechanics reduces overload, increases stability in every condition, and keeps your feet secure no matter how many miles you cover. No more pressure points, sweaty feet, or slips. You stay focused on your rhythm, your pace, and your trail.
