The Topo Athletic Women’s Pursuit 3 Trail Running Shoes in Slate/Clay are built for runners who want a natural, zero-drop ride with the confidence to tackle any terrain. Designed for both trail running and hiking, this high-performance trail shoe delivers the perfect balance of cushioning, grip, and responsiveness, helping you stay connected to the ground while pushing your limits off-road. The rugged yet refined Slate/Clay colorway brings a versatile, outdoors-ready look that performs as good as it looks.
At the foundation of the Pursuit 3 is a 0mm heel-to-toe drop platform, promoting a more natural stride and encouraging proper alignment from foot strike to toe-off. The ZipFoam™ midsole provides responsive, lightweight cushioning, delivering a smooth, balanced ride over uneven terrain. Underfoot, the FKT Insole enhances comfort while offering quick drainage in wet conditions, making it ideal for muddy trails, stream crossings, and unpredictable environments.
Traction is where this shoe truly shines. The Vibram® Megagrip outsole delivers exceptional grip and durability, giving you confidence on everything from rocky climbs to loose dirt and slick surfaces. The aggressively spaced lugs are designed for optimal traction and efficient mud and snow release, allowing you to maintain control in challenging conditions. Built with a roomy toe box and neutral support, the Pursuit 3 allows your toes to splay naturally for added stability and comfort on long runs. Plus, it’s gaiter compatible, offering extra protection from debris when needed.
Whether you're logging miles on rugged trails or exploring new terrain, the Topo Athletic Pursuit 3 delivers natural movement, reliable traction, and all-day trail comfort.
