The best running shoes for winter months
Which are the best running shoe brands for winter months?
Whilst the weather might be wetter, colder and muddier, sometimes there’s nothing more refreshing than getting out there on the track or trail and smashing out a solid run during the winter months.
Even in our typically warmer states and territories, the temperatures can fall lower than average, so it’s worth being prepared by wearing the best running shoes suited to colder weather and colder months.
What you need to look for in winter running shoes:
HOKA Running shoes for winter
HOKA offer a solid choice of shoes for running in colder climates. Their range of trail running shoes are perfectly suited to getting outdoors and getting muddy.
In particular, we love the best-selling HOKA Speedgoat 5. Available for both men and women, this trail running shoe helps you to take control on even the trickiest of terrain. Its particular strengths lie in performing well in those colder, high altitude and remote environments. There’s multi directional lugs underfoot to help retain balance on trail as well as an enhanced mesh upper that can support both breathability and the soggiest of wet weather. Bonus points to its great range of colours and widths as well.
Another strong contender for winter running from the HOKA line up is the HOKA Challenger Atr 7 (Atr standing for ‘All Terrain’ here). You’ll find tight lugs in the centre and spaced out lugs at the perimeter to help you feel more steady on uneven terrain. It’s also got some solid tech to support impact absorption through the midsole for those especially technical runs. Available in men’s and women’s styles, you’ll find a great choice of colour options and widths too.

Saucony running shoes for winter
The new Saucony Peregrine 14 is the updated version of their best-selling trail running shoe. It’s absolutely jam packed with technology, and features a debris resistant upper, which can be pivotal to a winter trail run. The larger 5mm lugs in the outsole are also constructed to provide both a sturdy grip and shed away debris, so you can focus on the run, and less on uneven and wet surface underfoot. With silhouettes for both men and women and some excellent colourways, we even have some Gore-tex styles across the Peregrine range too.
If you’re looking for a pair of Saucony running shoes for those colder months – especially a pair designed for stability runners? We love the best-selling Saucony Guide, with the Guide 17 being the latest iteration. The breathable mesh upper is great for winter running and the PWRRUN cushioning will offer propulsion for a supportive fit. All in all, this robust road running shoes is a great partner for cold morning runs outdoors. The Saucony Guide 17 is available for men and women with a great choice of colour offerings!
