About this product
The Brooks Caldera 8 Men's Shoe is a versatile trainer designed for running, hiking, and general walking. It features a fabric upper, lining, insole, and outsole, emphasizing breathability and comfort for all-season wear. This lace-up sneaker comes in a SkyBlue color (as pictured) and is available in US Men's size 10.5 and 11. Manufactured in Vietnam, it incorporates adjustable and breathable features, making it suitable for gym and training activities as well.
Our take
Having looked at the Brooks Caldera 8, it strikes me as a well-rounded athletic shoe. The emphasis on breathable fabric for the upper and lining is a definite plus for comfort, especially during varied activities like running and light hiking. I like that it's designed for 'All Seasons,' implying good ventilation without being overly specialized. The SkyBlue color is certainly distinctive. However, the fabric outsole might be a point of concern for serious off-road hiking where more durable rubber is typically preferred for traction and longevity. For casual trails and everyday training at $79.00, it seems like a reasonable option.
