OMM athletes never shy away from a challenge. From the Skiddaw uphill trials and Welsh peaks, through to ultra challenges like the Lakeland 100 and the Matterhorn, find out what our athletes are taking on in 2026 and what learnings they’re taking forward from past seasons.
Dubbed the “goldilocks shoe” by SportsShoes, the OMM Trail shoe is the right shoe for “just about every condition you’ll find on UK trails and in the mountains”. But don’t just take our word for it – discover what the runners think.
The Trail shoe channels OMM’s decades of trail and fell knowledge into a shoe designed to maintain pace on any terrain. The result? It’s responsive, fast and it’s the all-rounder of a shoe you can trust on every trail.
The OMM Trail Shoe – The Reviews
RUN4ADVENTURE:
“I think this outsole could pretty much handle most underfoot conditions. It offers great levels of grip and traction”
“the second thing I enjoyed was the level of ground feel the OMM Trail shoe offered me”
“In the world of deeply cushioned running midsoles, it’s quite refreshing to run in a shoe that gives you lots of connection to the trail so you feel nicely planted and stable. But this Vibram foam still gave me a good level of cushioning underfoot.”
SPORTSSHOES:
“I think OMM have done something really impressive and created the goldilocks shoe. It’s just right.”
“For anyone looking for a truly great all-rounder, with a focus on performance, it’s hard to look beyond the OMM Trail Shoe.”
“Light enough to race in, robust enough to train in. Versatile enough for just about every condition you’ll find on UK trails and in the mountains.”
“I’d describe the OMM Trail Shoe as the perfect all conditions shoe.”

Pace without hesitation – The OMM Trail shoe
Trust your feet to keep up with you, wherever you take them. The Trail shoe is designed to deliver lightweight speed, pace and performance in any conditions.
The sole uses three Vibram technologies – Vibram MegaGrip, Vibram Traction Lugs and Vibram Litebase – to maintain grip across varied terrain. The Trail shoe shields the foot from rocks and roots with an EVA rockplate in the midsole, helping with efficient energy transfer to keep momentum across uneven trail surfaces.
The Trail Shoe was built to inspire confidence where others hesitate. Stay fast on any path.
