Brooks

Women's Maja Bee Hat

<p>The redesigned Brooks Cascadia 18 GTX women's trail running shoe retains many of its beloved features, and this version will impress you with its soft cushioning and the excellent traction of its outsole. Its midsole stabilizes, protects, and efficiently absorbs all uneven terrain. The excellent-balanced construction also feels very agile, ensuring a dynamic running experience.</p> <p>And it does all this while featuring a very high percentage of recycled materials—in both the upper and the outsole.</p> <p>Thanks to the waterproof and breathable Gore-Tex® Invisible membrane, which is applied directly to the inside of the upper without an additional lining, this bad-weather running shoe keeps you well protected all the way to the finish line, even in extremely wet and cold conditions. Among the advantages of the lightweight Gore-Tex® Invisible process are the upper’s virtually unrestricted flexibility and a barely reduced interior volume.</p> <p>Updates focus on improvements to the mesh upper, abrasion protection, and advances in sustainability—notably the energy- and water-saving print technology.</p> <p>On uneven trails with sandy, gravelly, or damp surfaces, this proven trail specialist offers excellent traction. Thanks to its medium-width, women’s-specific fit, the foot sits snugly in the shoe. In addition, the Cascadia 18 GTX offers further advantages with its breathable material—which is fast-drying thanks to a drainage system—its dynamic roll-off characteristics, and the robust reinforcements in the sole and upper.</p> <p>The Ballistic Rock Shield unit integrated into the sole prevents painful pressure points from localized unevenness and, in its new design, is even more flexible to maintain a natural running feel for your foot.</p>
