7 Best Trail Running Shoes of 2026
Shoe and Gear Reviews
HOKA's tried and true trail running shoe is better than ever. With a light weight midsole material you don't have to sacrifice cushioning for a lightweight feel.

Perfect for running the trails, the Speedgoat 6 has a redesigned Vibram outsole that will give you grip and stability on the most technical trails. HOKA was able to cut off .5 ounces from the previous version by using lightweight midsole materials without sacrificing any of the cushioning they are known for. Featuring an internal chassis that is designed to hug your foot on uneven terrain for more support and stability underfoot. The breathable mesh upper keeps your foot cool, and the dual gusseted tongue has a plush soft feel that is comfortable and keeps debris out of your shoe. Whether you are hitting the trails for a run, or going on a long hike, the HOKA Speedgoat is a perfect addition.

Overall the shoes provide a great experience both for everyday use and walking around as well as for my short runs on a dirt road. I use the highly cushioned hooks one one for longer road runs as I need the extra cushioning. Speedgoat is my go to shoe for all around

These are awesome. Especially if you need a motion control type of shoe.

They are comfortable but are a little tighter than my HOKA Mach 6’s which I use for my road runs. I even went up a full size to 9.5 to try to accommodate the long trail walks/treks that I do (10-13 miles). I am still a big fan because they are tougher than the Machs but much lighter than my generic trail shoes I used to own.

My wife and I bought these shoes to spend a few days hiking in Zion National Park. They were great on our feet. The comfort and grip of the shoes helped us manage all the rough terrain that Zion presents. I highly recommend these shoes!

I was not satisfied with my order and have requested a return through my credit card. Since I haven’t heard from you I disputed the charge.

The sizing was too tight in forefoot, the foam was too hard, the shoe wasn’t Comfortable Overall
