Brooks Caldera 8 Men's Trail Running Shoes

Ultra-cushioned trail-running shoes are always ready for your next adventure. Don't miss the Caldera 8 with enduring comfort, plush cushion, and an adaptable ride made for long-distance runs.

TPEE Air Mesh Upper

The Caldera 8 utilises a TPEE air mesh upper for enhanced ventilation, drainage, and abrasion protection. The mesh works to keep your feet cool and comfortable by actively and efficiently wicking away the build-up of excess sweat and moisture. Additionally, cool air is encouraged to circulate, creating a drier, healthier environment for your feet to thrive as you strive for optimal results and performance. Furthermore, the reinforced mesh resists scratching and snagging on the trail to maintain comfort without sacrificing performance. The padded and perforated tongue further increases comfort and breathability while the raised sidewalls add security and flexibility where you need it. TPU toecaps protect the forefoot from rocks and uneven surfaces, and the heel pull tabs assist in putting the shoes on and off. Completing the upper is a traditional lacing system which ensures a secure, locked-in feel.

DNA Loft v3 Midsole

The DNA Loft v3 midsole is a cushioning technology that is soft and comfortable. It carries the footwell and even moulds itself to the shape of the underfoot, allowing the platform to fully support the curvature of the underfoot. The Caldera has been designed with DNA Loft v3, Brooks' super soft cushioning that has been infused with nitrogen to be as soft, light and durable as possible. The cushioning and support will help to lessen the impact placed upon your joints as well as attenuate shock, minimising the potential risk of injury or discomfort.

TrailTack Green Rubber Outsole

The TrailTack Green Rubber outsole and multi-directional lugs ensure outstanding uphill and downhill traction - even on wet surfaces. The durable, resilient non-skid rubber delivers optimal grip and traction, ideal for technical trails where unpredictable terrain is highly prevalent and is made of 25% recycled material. Having the enhanced grip and traction will allow you to run with comfort and confidence, even on varying terrain or up and down hills. The outsole features a wider base than previous versions to help increase stability for a smoother heel-to-toe transition, and lastly, flex grooves have been added to increase flexibility to ensure better grip and traction.
