Live Breathe Run With GORE TEX

We believe there’s no better way to know your kit than to get outside and use it in the conditions it was made for. Trail Running expert Martin, from our Aviemore Store, recently went to Glenmore Lodge in the Cairngorms to put the latest GORE-TEX® trail running clothing and equipment through its paces.

Martin’s Go-to Hiking Essentials

“When running off the beaten track, fast-and-light is my motto. Layers should be breathable and adaptable, protected by a waterproof shell that won’t weigh you down. For me, a good pair of running shoes is essential. The Roclite 320 Mid is a superb example; grippy, durable and protected by GORE-TEX product technology they’re everything you could want in a trail running shoe.”

The lightweight, waterproof GORE-TEX construction is complemented by the mid-cut height, for improved stability and enhanced protection against water, mud and debris. This is one of the fastest, lightest boots on the market and lets you run and hike with confidence.
