New Balance Minimus Trail Running Shoes

Made for explosiveness and agility on the trail, these trail running shoes are built to complement natural movement - like barefoot, but better.

Durable Textile Upper

The upper of the Minimus has been constructed using a durable textile material. The fabric is hard-wearing for long-lasting use, allowing cool air to flow through the shoe keeping feet feeling fresh and cool. Rubber overlays increase the durability, protecting you from knocks and scrapes when hitting the trails. Completing the upper is a dynamic lacing system that helps you secure the shoe and locks down the midfoot for confident, secure strides.

FuelCell Midsole

The FuelCell midsole compound is a nitrogen-infused foam with approximately 3% bio-based content that drives you off the cushioning platform and delivers long-lasting performance. Delivering high-rebound, the Minimus creates an energetic propulsive feel which helps to drive you forward for an even faster feeling. The midsole absorbs shocks and negative impact forces as you strike down and uses the energy to catapult you off into your next step, allowing you to be faster still. It does all this without sacrificing the minimalist feel, with a low drop complementing natural movement.

AT Tread Outsole

Developed using an AT Tread outsole, the Minimus is designed for both on and off-road running. The multiuse outsole provides a perfect balance of exceptional grip and a soft underfoot feel allowing you to strike down on unforgiving surfaces without losing your grip. Ensuring easy surface transitions, the lug pattern adapts to road and off-road conditions for ultimate versatility. The AT Tread rubber delivers plenty of grip and traction to help fill you with confidence as you take on any trail. The highly durable outsole can maintain its high level of performance no matter what is put in its path. The lugs grip into the terrain to ensure maximum traction, keeping you feeling stable and confident at all times.
