Women's Trail Running Shoes Frequently Asked Questions

How to choose trail running shoes for women?

An important factor in choosing the perfect trail running shoes for women is to consider the trails you'll be conquering. For running on easy, maintained trails, look for lightweight shoes with moderate cushioning and traction to prioritise agility and breathability. On more technical trails with steep climbs and descents, opt for more aggressive shoes with substantial cushioning, great grip and possibly a rock plate for added protection underfoot. Look for breathable and water-resistant materials. Consider a protective toe cap for additional shielding. Read more about about how to choose running shoes on our blog.

Is it OK to road run in trail shoes?

Sometimes it's OK, but it's not ideal. One reason is the wear and tear of street surfaces. Trail shoes have aggressive treads designed for gripping loose surfaces like dirt and rocks. The treads wear down much more quickly on smooth pavement. And while the softer rubber and thicker soles on women's trail running shoes provide more grip, they're less responsive compared to road running shoes. This can lead to a less efficient running experience on pavement. If you're just running a short distance on the road occasionally, your trail shoes will likely be fine.

Should you size up or down for trail runners?

You generally don't need to size up or down specifically for trail running shoes compared to your regular shoe size, but a good fit is crucial for comfort and performance on the trails. Make sure there's some wiggle room (about a finger width) in the toe box when you wear your women's trail runners with the socks you plan to run in. This allows for foot swelling over long distances and prevents cramming that can lead to blisters. For longer runs or technical terrain, a slightly larger size might be beneficial to accommodate foot swelling.
