A Steady, Grippy Shoe for Rough Ground

The men's Cascadia 20 is Brooks's go-to trail shoe for rocky, rooty and uneven terrain. It's built to feel planted, with a broad, flexible platform that adapts to the ground underfoot and Vibram Megagrip rubber (4mm lugs) for traction on wet or dry dirt.

This version adds 4mm more DNA FLASH v2, Brooks's nitrogen-infused foam, for a softer ride, and toughens the air-mesh upper with 3D overlays, a toe cap and a mudguard. Brooks lists it at 10.8 oz with a 6mm drop, and the upper uses about 61% recycled material.
