An All-Terrain Shoe That Can Handle Everything: Brooks Cascadia 16 Review

Run Tester Todd here. I’ve been hitting the trails in the new Brooks Cascadia 16, an all-terrain shoe that can handle everything from well-maintained horse trails to rocky, technical terrain. Thanks to the Ballistic Rock Shield that Brooks infused in the design, the Cascadia 16 is an exceptionally stable and protective shoe.
