Brooks supports trail runners to defy limits and empower their trail runs with the new Cascadia 18. The adaptable Cascadia combines DNA Loft v2 cushioning with TrailTack Green grip and a durable upper mesh to handle all terrains, providing necessary comfort and underfoot security on each surface.
The Brooks Cascadia 18 is the perfect shoe for trail runners who want to conquer technical terrain with a confident stride. The Trail Adapt System integrates a midsole, rock plate and outsole system that delivers stability on any type of terrain such as rock, grass, mud and gravel. This provides traction on uneven surfaces with the zonal outsole pods, while offering enhanced control and a stable ride, allowing runners to confidently traverse over any terrain.
A feature of great importance to professional Brooks trailrunners like Roberto Delorenzi: “During my training runs, I encounter all sorts of terrain. The adaptability of the Cascadia 18 really helps me overcome even the most technical surfaces, while maintaining control.”
To give runners a comfortable experience on the trails, the Cascadia 18 features DNA Loft v2 cushioning. This technology ensures comfort on tough and technical terrain that lasts mile after mile. In addition, the TrailTack Green, which is made out of 30% recycled materials, provides exceptional traction on wet and dry surfaces. The updated mesh in the Cascadia 18 features overlays in high-wear areas that provides a layer of protection on the trails. The upper mesh is breathable, durable and dries quickly, while protecting the runner’s feet against debris. The shoe has a narrow fit on the feet, with extra space in the toe box. This provides a roomy and supportive feel, while the shoe is stiff enough for great stability and traction on uneven surfaces.
According to Gerard Klein, Footwear Merchandising Director EMEA, the Cascadia is a great choice for runners who want to push themselves on the trails: “The Cascadia 18 is the perfect shoe for trail runners who are looking for an adaptable shoe that can take on all terrain while enjoying comfort, stability and control all the way.”
