Saucony Xodus Ultra 4

The Saucony Xodus Ultra 4 are trail running shoes specifically designed to offer comfort, cushioning, and grip over long distances on varied terrain. This fourth version maintains the focus on ultradistance, but with improvements in lightness, fit, and responsiveness, thanks to a significant update to the midsole and upper.

They are designed for middle- and long-distance runners , especially those who train or compete in ultradistances (50 km, 100 km or more) on technical or mixed terrain . They are ideal for runners looking for:

Generous but not soft cushioning
Good underfoot protection without losing sensitivity to the ground
Secure grip on technical descents and ascents
Reliable footwear for long days in the mountains

Thanks to their versatility, they are also a good option for long training runs on less technical trails.

The upper of the Xodus Ultra 4 has been updated with a lighter and more breathable technical mesh , maintaining the necessary protection without sacrificing flexibility or comfort. Key features include:

Greater support in the midfoot , offering a more enveloping fit

Attached tongue (boot type) , which prevents dirt and stones from entering

Heat-sealed reinforcement elements that increase durability and protection against rocks

More structured toe box , to protect the toes without excessive rigidity

One of the most significant changes is in the midsole. The Xodus Ultra 4 uses a combination of PWRRUN and PWRRUN PB , which offers:

Greater energy return without losing the stability needed for trail riding

A more reactive feel compared to previous versions

Good balance between cushioning and responsiveness for ultradistance

The geometry of the midsole has also been redesigned to improve the transition of the stride, especially on uneven terrain.

The sole incorporates the PWRTRAC compound, known for its durability and grip. Key features:

Aggressive tread pattern with multidirectional arrangement, for good grip on wet, loose and rocky terrain

Good performance on both technical climbs and descents

Central flex channel that improves adaptability to the terrain

Excellent durability, even on abrasive terrain such as rock and gravel
