Cascadia 16

Trail2021-08 · JP · Release dateChecked 2026-11-08

Cascadia 16 is a cushioned shoe for newer trail runners and more demanding routes. The switch to DNA LOFT v2 aims for a softer ride and trims 14 g from a men's 27 cm shoe versus the previous generation. A flexible Rock Shield protects the underside of the foot from stones and roots, while the lugged TrailTack rubber outsole provides grip on climbs and descents.
