TARKINE Trail Devil 3 – Built for the Trail. Fitted for You.
The TARKINE Trail Devil 3 is the most advanced trail running shoe ever created by TARKINE. Designed for runners who thrive on technical terrain, ultra-distance adventures, and rugged mountain trails, it combines premium materials, refined engineering, and thoughtful trail-specific features to deliver confidence when every step counts.
Whether you're racing an ultra, tackling technical singletrack, or exploring Australia's most demanding trails, the Trail Devil 3 provides the grip, protection, and comfort to keep you moving from the first climb to the final descent.
Engineered for Technical Terrain
At the heart of the Trail Devil 3 is a Vibram® Megagrip outsole, delivering world-class traction across wet rock, loose gravel, muddy tracks, and dry technical terrain. Designed to inspire confidence in changing conditions, Megagrip provides exceptional durability and grip, making it the perfect outsole for trail runners who demand reliability on every adventure.
A reinforced TPU toe overlay protects your feet from rocks, roots, and trail debris while maintaining the lightweight feel needed for long-distance performance.
Comfort for Long Days on the Trail
With a generous 39mm heel / 33mm forefoot stack height, the Trail Devil 3 offers high levels of cushioning without sacrificing trail feel or stability. The 6mm heel-to-toe drop promotes smooth transitions while providing enough protection for ultra-distance racing and all-day adventures.
Despite its protective platform, the Trail Devil 3 remains impressively lightweight:
- Men's US 9: 272g
- Women's US 7: 217g
The result is a shoe that's equally capable of fast-paced trail runs, mountainous ultras, and long-distance hiking.
Trail-Ready Features
Every detail has been designed for life on the trail.
Two included lace systems allow you to customise the fit:
- Corrugated laces for maximum security during technical running
- Soft laces for a more traditional feel and everyday comfort
A convenient tongue lace pocket keeps excess lace neatly tucked away, preventing snagging while maintaining a clean, secure fit.
The Trail Devil 3 is also gaiter compatible, featuring an integrated toe hook and rear Velcro attachment point, making it easy to add gaiters for dusty, sandy, or muddy adventures.
