Advanced Trail Running Technology

The Brooks Cascadia Elite combines cutting-edge materials and innovative design to create a high-performance trail shoe that excels on the most demanding terrain. Built for neutral runners seeking maximum energy return and protection, this unisex trail running shoe is your trusted partner for technical mountain adventures.

DNA GOLD Cushioning System

At the heart of the Brooks Cascadia Elite is the DNA GOLD 100% PEBA cushioning technology, delivering lightweight, responsive energy return that propels you forward on every stride. This advanced midsole material provides exceptional bounce and comfort without adding unnecessary weight, making it ideal for trail racing and long-distance mountain running.

Carbon-Infused Propulsion

The Pebax SpeedVault+ carbon-infused plate enhances forward propulsion while protecting your feet from sharp rocks and uneven trail surfaces. This innovative plate technology helps you maintain speed on technical terrain, providing both performance benefits and underfoot protection during aggressive trail running.

Elite Traction Performance

Featuring a Vibram® Megagrip Elite outsole, the Brooks Cascadia Elite trail shoe delivers outstanding grip on wet rocks, loose gravel, and muddy trails. This premium rubber compound ensures confident footing across variable trail conditions, allowing you to focus on your performance rather than your footing.

Durable Construction for Trail Demands

The MATRYX® engineered woven upper incorporates Kevlar® fibres to create a breathable yet highly durable structure. This advanced upper material provides a secure, adaptive fit while standing up to the abrasion and wear of technical trail running. The Brooks Cascadia Elite is built to handle the rigours of mountain terrain without compromising on comfort or performance.
