The Rundown
Like that running buddy who never bails, the Challenger 8 GORE-TEX says yes to the road, yes to the trail—and yes to rain, mud and snow. Redesigned with more foam underfoot, an improved fit and reimagined multi-directional lug orientation, it’s both smooth on the pavement and trustworthy on dirt. And its GORE-TEX Invisible Fit waterproof membrane means it doesn’t balk at puddles, either. Guess you’re out of excuses.

The Challenger 8 GORE-TEX contains features that make the shoe inherently stable, such as a wide base and our Active Foot Frame, for a moderate amount of stability that is still designed to work for neutral gaits.
The Challenger 8 GORE-TEX features a symmetrical bed of cushion without additional prescriptive technologies. Designed to provide the support you want and nothing you don't.
