Beyond the Brand

Along with your choice of leading brands, you also have a number of structural options to consider. Starting at the bottom, the outsole can feature an aggressive, rubber-lugged tread; this may be your best choice for more forgiving terrain and when weather conditions are fair. Shoes with removable, sharp spikes in the forefoot promote surefootedness when cutting on loose surfaces or in wet conditions. While track sprinters and long-distance runners may always lean toward the lightest-possible shoe to ensure optimum speed, this may not be the best choice for XC runners because an even, predictable indoor or outdoor track bears little resemblance to the wild conditions encountered in the great wide open. Your ankle strength, arch structure, pronation tendencies, and running style should all come into play when making your selection. Check with your trainer or coach to evaluate your individual footwear needs.

Eastbay follows through with apparel — tops, pants, shorts, leggings, and headwear — to outfit XC runners. And, because we’re determined to help you be your best, we always offer a fit guarantee and free return shipping if you need it. Our Customer Service team is available 24/7 both online and by phone for personal help anytime.
