Brooks Cascadia 19 Trail Running Shoe - Men's

Good comfortable shoe use. Good comfortable shoe use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] "I’m incredibly impressed with the Cascadia 19. They deliver excellent support and protection on rugged trails and give great feedback on gravel roads. The fit is absolutely perfect. Best of all, I don't suffer from any foot fatigue after a couple-mile run, which is unusual given my flat feet. I'll definitely be recommending these to fellow runners."

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Most comfortable shoes I’ve ever had. I have hip and knee problems and this shoe helps to alleviate both of those. I will be a lifelong Brooks customer from now on.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a 79-year-old hiker and fitness walker. After two longish hikes on varied foothills terrain, I am very pleased with this purchase. This is my fourth pair of Brooks shoes (two Ghosts and a Glycerin), and the comfort and fit are as expected. For the past few years I have been using a zero drop foot-shape trail shoe, and have been having to build up heel supports within the shoe to protect my Achilles. The Cascadia 19 doesn't have the biggest drop, but it is sufficient and I haven't experienced any discomfort in my heel or Achilles when wearing them, and there is plenty of width in the forefoot part of the shoe. The soles offer excellent grip on slickrock, dirt, and gravel, and they feel stable and supportive on uneven surfaces. And I like the little elastic strap to stick the lace ends under. It seems to prevent the laces coming untied or even loosening without the necessity of double-knotting. Like all Brooks shoes, they are comfortable! I don't even need to take off my shoes and slip into my Berks after a hike. No idea yet about durability, but my other Brooks shoes have been excellent in that regard so I'm optimistic.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Generally good first impression. Lots of cushion, almost too much. Not super stable. I don't like the heel slip. I suspect it will be a problem when on steep trails.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second pair of Cascadias and won’t be the last. Over the past several years, I have moved to wearing trail running shoes because of their versatility. The soles aren’t real aggressive so they work well on mixed surfaces. I walk on paved and unpaved paths and do some light hiking. I like being able to wear the same shoes for everything. Also, it seems like a small thing, but I like the lace keeper on the tongue. I prefer not having the laces flapping around while I’m walking. Overall, I am very happy with the Cascadia shoes. Rich Marvin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the durability and the comfort I feel like I can go anywhere on them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these to use as a trail hiking shoe instead of your typical hikers. My general knee discomfort just couldn’t take the hard-healed designs anymore and I am not about stop doing what I love because of it. Thus, the Cascadia 19 came to the rescue! Due to my high arches, I have podiatrist provided custom orthotics as a preventative measure. They fit great in this shoe and highly recommended trying them on with the orthotics to ensure a comfortable fit. I am very happy with this decision because the Cascadia 19’s have the right amount of cushion and stability. Also, the grip on hardpan and wood chip trails is awesome. Hopefully there will be more color combinations in the future because this is now my go-to hiking shoe. I have other brooks shoes for street walking and love them equally! As long as the design and quality hold, I will stay a loyal brand customer!!
