Saucony Xodus Ultra 4 Men’s Trail Running Shoes
Built for trail runners who spend long hours on their feet and want maximum comfort without losing control on technical ground. If you’re heading deep into the hills, training for ultras, or clocking big kilometres on backcountry tracks, this shoe is designed to keep your legs feeling fresher for longer.
Underfoot, the Xodus Ultra 4 uses a dual-layer cushioning system. Soft, energetic PWRRUN PB sits directly beneath the foot to absorb impact and keep the ride lively over long distances. That’s framed by a more durable PWRRUN chassis, adding stability and protection when the trail gets rocky or uneven. It’s a setup that works especially well on long New Zealand trail runs where terrain and fatigue can change quickly.
