BrooksMen's, Cascadia 16 Trail Running Shoe

These are ultra-comfortable and still rugged underfoot for hiking. I am hoping for good durability. No break-in needed. The toebox is plenty wide. Good traction and extremely lightweight, I bought a second pair for backpacking and trail running.

4th pair of Brooks shoes, 2 pairs of ghosts, and my second pair of Cascadias. Onethingi will say, with utmost confidence, is that Brooks shoes are of the highest quality and comfortable right outta the box. The last pair of Cascadias I had were 12's. They were fantastic! However these are more refined, lighter, and better looking. Still have the rock guard, which is huge, but more nimble and comfortable. If you're on the fence, get off and buy these. You won't regret it.

My feet are quite large (13.5, wide) and it's exceptionally difficult finding trail running shoes that are actually comfortable. I tried Lone Peaks, which are comfortable for everyday wear, but they offer basically no support, and while some see this as a good thing, they didn't work for me.Aside from Lone Peaks, I found very few shoes that actually fit comfortably in my size, but one of those few I found are these Cascadias. These are great! Super comfortable, I can run in them all day, plenty of grip, and they fit true to size. I wear Adrenalines for normal running and moving over to these for trails feels completely natural.Highly recommend, especially if you have large feet and are having a difficult time like I was!

As an avid trail runner, I've been a fan of the Brooks Cascadia line for many years. The Cascadia 16 is the latest iteration of this popular shoe. While the 16s are a solid overall trail running shoe, I felt they fell a bit short of previous versions I've loved.On the positive side, the new design includes welcome updates like a roomier toe box and modernized lacing system. Brooks' signature BioMoGo DNA midsole provides good cushioning and support on uneven terrain. The sticky rubber outsole grips well on most surfaces.My main complaints are with the upper mesh material and overall fit. The upper feels slightly cheaper and less breathable than prior models. For my feet, the fit runs half a size too small. Going up a half size improved the tightness but caused some heel slippage issues.The Cascadia 16 also seems less durable than its predecessor. After just 60 or so miles, I'm already seeing some concerning wear on the outsole lugs and upper fabric. It remains to be seen how they'll hold up in the long run.Overall, this newest iteration is a decent stability trail shoe for beginner or moderately active runners. But it lacks some of the premium features and dialed-in performance I've come to expect from the Cascadia line. I'd recommend trying on in store and seeking out older models on sale if you want a more well-rounded Cascadia.

My first pair of Brooks. By far, the best walking shoe I've ever bought. Total comfort and support for those of us on our feet each day. I'm totally sold on this brand. Far worth the extra cost!

I have been hiking in Salomon for nearly 20 years. However, lately their hiking shoes just haven’t held up and have not been as comfortable. I tried a couple other brands and then tried these Brooks. They feel amazing! The sole is holding up, true to size, stable, not too hot for AZ hiking and these will be on my feet when we hike North Rim to South Rim in October.

Great Fit. Went on 5 mile hike first day with them. My feet felt the difference, in a good way. The grip was fantastic on loose rocky terrain as well as rock surface. Overall great shoe, will be buying more.

brooks quality for sure! i would of given 5 stars if the top wasn't so tight. wides are to wide and regular are sometimes snug. With the laces as loose as I can tie them they may need a lot more braking-in before they are a 5 star. but to walk in all day they are very comfortable.

Me llegaron en tiempo, son muy buenos tenis para correr Trail de Montaña, tienen buena tracción y amortiguamiento, gracias a la placa que tiene balistic rock shield, no se sienten las piedras filosas quebpisas en terrenos técnicos, la horma es amplia, al principio me los amarre muy fuerte por qué pensé que se me iban a mover mucho por lo mismo de la horma, pero no, en realidad si se sienten amplios y cómodos y no requieren que los aprietes tanto. En duración llevo apenas 4 salidas en Trail y se ven muy bien y poco desgaste en suela a pesar que han sido terrenos técnicos con mucha piedra. Yo si los recomiendo y son una persona pesada.

Great shoes, comfortable and stylish.

Excelentes

Das sind meine ersten Laufschuhe die ich gekauft habe. Kann mit den Schuhen ohne Probleme weite Strecken laufen ohne das mir die Knie weh tun.

Es la segunda vez que me compro estas bambas de trail. Hago trails de hasta 30km. Las primeras eran exactamente iguales. Las he vuelto a comprar por el buen resultado y porqué ahora estaban mejor de precio (las primeras hace 2 años 160€, estas a fecha 10/6/2024 a 100€). Agarran muy bién en terrenos de tierra, pesan poco y son cómodas. Pesan un poco más que las Hoka pero igualmente van muy bien.
