The Brooks Cascadia 18 is a versatile trail running shoe engineered for stability, protection, and comfort on varied terrain. It features the Trail Adapt System, which combines responsive DNA LOFT v2 cushioning, a flexible Ballistic Rock Shield plate, and zonal outsole pods to adapt to uneven ground. The single-layer mesh upper with durable overlays sheds debris and dries quickly, while the TrailTack Green rubber outsole provides reliable traction on wet and dry surfaces. With an 8 mm heel-to-toe drop and strategic lug pattern, the Cascadia 18 balances agility and cushioning for long-distance trail runs.
