With a 35-year history focused on trail running, the Montrail brand joined the Columbia family in 2017 to become the Columbia Montrail series. It has introduced its first trail running apparel line, providing comprehensive gear from head to toe for trail runners.
The New Columbia Montrail Series Delivers Premium Trail Running Gear
Backed by professional technology that supports the world’s toughest trail races, Columbia Montrail takes you into a new era of trail running. The trail running shoes are designed specifically for the demands of off-road running. The upper features advanced wrapping technology for a snug fit; Techlite technology makes the shoes extremely lightweight while providing effective cushioning and shock absorption, delivering outstanding protection for your feet and knees as you run freely. Equipped with Vibram outsoles, they maintain excellent grip even on rugged trails. The Columbia Montrail series offers leading stability and unbeatable traction, balancing speed and safety to help you conquer any challenging and steep terrain.
As one of the classic models, the newly upgraded second-generation Caldorado combines multiple patented technologies, perfectly blending soft comfort with outdoor functionality. Seamless upper construction makes the shoe ultra-lightweight, while the midsole uses patented FluidFoam and FluidGuide multi-stability cushioning technologies to absorb impact and provide support, all while allowing flexible foot movement for smooth action. The outsole features the TrailShield foot protection system, which is slip-resistant and durable. Unique 5mm high-grip multi-directional lugs enhance traction from all angles and ensure full balance.
The women’s second-generation Caldorado incorporates the same leading technology, weighing less than 260 grams for an ultra-light feel that frees female athletes from any heavy burden. Multi-directional shock absorption offers effective protection while ensuring smooth movement. The mesh-printed toe cap design adds extra durability and protection.
The Trient all-terrain trail running shoes feature breathable cushioning and feature protective designs at the toe and heel for impact protection during off-road runs. The outsole provides stable support, and its durable, grippy rubber sole has been tested on various terrains, excelling on both dry gravel and slippery surfaces. The women’s line not only offers breathability and quick-drying properties along with the same all-terrain grip and cushioning, but also comes in vibrant color options — refreshing aqua blue and elegant lilac are great choices.
The Columbia Montrail series is the top choice for professional athletes seeking high-end gear. Renowned trail runner ‘Running God’ Yu Lei completed three extreme trail races totaling 850 kilometers with a cumulative elevation gain/loss of nearly 60,000 meters wearing the Columbia Montrail series — setting a world record in trail running. Ma Yanxing also claimed first place in the women’s division of last year’s UTMB China while wearing Columbia Montrail trail running shoes.
Play with Color: Fashion Meets Function
Macaron-inspired colors bring delicate sweetness and a Parisian flair of fashion and romance. The Columbia Montrail series draws inspiration from this aesthetic. Step away from the daily hustle and reconnect with nature during your travels. Whether for daily workouts, outdoor hikes, or casual holidays, the vibrant Columbia Montrail collection instantly lifts your mood and elevates your style. A crossover of fashion and sport, several models feature macaron shades like pink, mint, and lemon for a cute and charming look. Colorful laces allow for personalized styling, showcasing creative details. The trendy design makes the Montrail trail running shoes perfect for everyday wear — pair them with running shorts and simple, comfortable quick-dry tees to effortlessly create a fresh summer look. Bright outerwear and accessories add an extra pop.
