The GORUCK Rough Runners are named after the “original Rough Runner” Teddy Roosevelt, embodying the spirit of endurance and ruggedness. These ultra-supportive running shoes are meticulously engineered for maximum comfort and performance, designed to go the extra mile with you. The unisex Rough Runner features a custom formulated Gradient Densityâ„¢ EVA midsole, providing exceptional bounce under the ball of the foot while gradually increasing stability towards the heel. This innovative design ensures 3X Supportâ„¢ for all three arches of your foot, enhancing your running experience.
With a 10mm heel-to-toe drop, the Rough Runner strikes the perfect balance between a running stride and a rucking gait, reducing strain on the achilles and supporting heel strikes while maintaining optimal cadence control. The lightweight 100D mesh + TPU upper, dual-compound rubber outsole, and 3D molded heel lock offer superior durability, traction, and ankle support. Whether you’re hitting the trails or pounding the pavement, the GORUCK Rough Runners are built to keep you moving comfortably and confidently through every step of your journey.
