Brooks Cascadia Elite

Features

Outfitter's Tip: this is a UNISEX-sized shoe. Men's sizes are shown — women should order 1.5 sizes below their standard running shoe size. For example: for a women's size 9.5 shoe, order a size 8.

The trail doesn't negotiate — and neither does the Brooks Cascadia Elite. Built for competitive trail racing from sub-ultras to VKs to full mountain ultras, this trail racing shoe packs serious performance technology into a lightweight package that's ready to go wherever the course takes you.

DNA GOLD 100% PEBA cushioning delivers ultralight, springy energy return underfoot, a carbon-infused Pebax SpeedVault+ trail plate keeps propulsion dialed in across variable terrain and a Vibram Megagrip Elite outsole holds its grip on wet and dry surfaces with equal confidence. The MATRYX® engineered woven upper with Kevlar® fibers locks your foot in place without sacrificing flexibility — so you can push the pace from mountain peak to podium without second-guessing your footing.

Details:

• Upper: MATRYX® engineered woven construction with Kevlar® fibers delivers a dynamically secure, race-day fit that holds your foot firmly in place while remaining flexible enough to move naturally across technical terrain.
• Midsole: DNA GOLD 100% PEBA cushioning provides ultralight, responsive energy return with every stride. A carbon-infused Pebax SpeedVault+ trail plate is sandwiched between PEBA layers for propulsive, sustained speed across any trail surface.
• Outsole: A Vibram Megagrip Elite outsole delivers superior grip on wet and dry terrain — meticulously designed for race-day confidence from the first descent to the last straight.
