Explore the best men’s trail running shoes at Foot Locker

Ready to take on extreme terrain with ease? Look for a pair of fast and responsive men’s trail running shoes in NZ that absorbs and repurposes energy so you can push into your next stride. Whether it’s rocky mountains or an uphill outdoor trail, Nike has a range of performance shoes made with high abrasion rubber on the outsole to add durable, multi-directional traction. This means you’ll have a solid grip on the ground while the upper provides ventilation, so overheating isn’t an issue when running long distances. With foam midsole cushioning that mirrors the muscle fibres in your legs, Nike’s best men’s running shoes will increase your speed while you remain comfortable and pain-free. 

If you’re training in wet and muddy conditions, look for water-resistant models that feature a thick gaiter at the collar for an additional layer of defence. This high-tech design will resist debris and excessive moisture from weighing the shoe down, so nothing will stop you from getting outside and working up a sweat. Plus, the rubber foam outsole compound enhances bounce and flexibility while stabilising traction so you can move or sidestep rocks with ease.

FAQs

What should I consider when choosing running shoes for men?

As well as determining your foot type, how the shoe fits is one of the most important factors to consider when selecting the best running shoes for men. The shoe should offer a snug upper fit, while the toe box allows the foot to spread when you run. You should also consider the shoe's weight because that directly impacts how much energy you need to exert during exercise. Choose a water-resistant style that features solid midsole foam and a supportive upper.
