Tracksmith has officially taken its minimalist-meets-performance ethos off the pavement with the release of the Eliot Range, a trail running shoe purpose-built for runners who thrive beyond city streets. Engineered for both protection and propulsion, the Eliot Range features a multi-part construction that blends a supercritical foam midsole with a full-length injected nylon plate—delivering stability, snappy responsiveness, and high energy return with every stride.

A built-in Merino wool bootie lines the interior, offering odor resistance, moisture control, and adaptive comfort in shifting conditions. Paired with a lightweight, breathable woven mesh shell and integrated heel pillows, the shoe ensures a supportive fit for long miles on variable terrain. Underfoot, a rugged Vibram XS Trek Evo rubber outsole provides multi-surface grip and durability. At the same time, the silicone-coated laces stay secure mile after mile.

With a stack height of 34.5 mm at the heel and 25.5 mm at the forefoot (9 mm drop) and weighing just 9.9 ounces in a US men’s size 9, the Tracksmith Eliot Range strikes the ideal balance between lightweight agility and rugged dependability.

Tracksmith designed the Eliot Range to embody its understated aesthetic without compromising trail-readiness—making it a serious contender for runners seeking performance without the garish overdesign common in modern trail shoes. Priced at $240, it’s a refined, functional upgrade for anyone chasing their next PR on dirt, gravel, or singletrack.
