I don’t know how any of my fellow runners feel, but running on concrete/pavement gets old pretty quickly. Living in a city with limited alternatives, I usually don’t have another option. When you’ve got a proper running trail that’s either dirt or gravel, it’s like heaven to have a softer impact on every step. Of course, trail running comes with its own set of challenges that you have to acknowledge, and that starts with the right pair of trail running shoes. Nike’s new ACG Ultrafly Trail Runners are exactly the right pair.

With a springy ZoomX foam, Vibram® Megagrip outsole, super-breathable upper, and full-length carbon plate, these trail runners are going to feel light as a feather while providing the durability and protection that your feet and ankles need on any terrain. Rocks and puddles, be damned.
These shoes are part of Nike’s new, larger All Conditions Gear (ACG) collection. This is apparel and gear designed for those of us who look forward to hitting the trail, increasing the altitude, and getting a little wild and messy outdoors. Makes that post-hike brewery beer all the more refreshing and delicious.
If that ACG logo looks familiar, it’s decked out across the official Team USA gear for our athletes competing in the Winter Olympics in Milan. If it’s good enough for them, it’s perfect for your next outdoor run.
