Every year at the end of August, the trail-running world converges on Chamonix. For the occasion, we’ve brought together a selection of products we trust for long days in the mountains — from lightweight essentials to equipment built for 100-mile efforts.
Hydration packs and belts from Tabisuke Tabizo. Cordura and merino apparel from Sysum. Durable eyewear from Coast Optics. Comfortable and versatile shirts from Pamera. Distinctive singlets from Participation for shorter, faster formats. UK-made poles from Mountain King. Trail shoes from 4T2 and Valone. Plus selected accessories from Lièvre Running, DISCLOSE and Nowhere Somewhere.
This isn’t a mandatory gear list, nor an exhaustive guide to everything you might need. It’s simply our selection for UTMB week, your next ultra, or the next long day out on the trails.
