Overview

A trail runner logging long miles gets a soft, cushioned ride from the Brooks Caldera, built on nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT foam. The light, flexible design and rubber outsole handle dirt and gravel paths.

Deep cushioning eases the pounding of long trail runs and ultras. It is not water resistant, and the listing does not describe the lug pattern or rock protection.

Who it's for

Long distance trail runners and hikers moving fast on groomed trails will value the soft landing. Overpronators or those running in mud and snow need different features.
