THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT FROM INTERSPORT STURM
To ensure your enjoyment of trail running isnât compromised, itâs crucial to have not only good conditioning but also the right gear.
TRAIL RUNNING SHOES
For trail running, your shoes should provide support for your feet and allow for a natural roll. The specialized, rugged outsole prevents slipping, and the right socks are essential to maintain stability within the shoe. In bad weather, a waterproof membrane is recommended, although it may slightly reduce breathability. Depending on your runner type and physical condition, the cushioning of the shoe should be tailored accordingly. Our team is happy to help you.
THE RIGHT CLOTHING FOR EVERY WEATHER
Light, breathable, and quick-drying clothing is crucial for trail running. It's advisable to wear several layers to be prepared for changing weather conditions. A lightweight weather protection layer should always be included on longer runs. Depending on the temperature, long or short running attire, warming layers, and a multifunctional scarf are important. Thin gloves protect your fingers from the cold in the mountains, and a hat is essential in heat. In our shop, youâll find suitable caps and sporty sunglasses.
PRACTICAL ACCESSORIES FOR YOUR TRAIL RUNNING EXPERIENCE
As a general rule: less is often more. However, caution is advised on very long tours. Donât forget to bring enough fluids and small energy sources. In our shop, youâll find special backpacks or belts for trail running that are lightweight and provide space for a water bottle and some snacks. Alternatively, you can opt for a compact trail running backpack with an integrated hydration system.
