Atom by Fluchos Terra V3 AT202 Light women's trail running shoe

The Atom Terra V3 Light women's trail running shoe from ATOM by Fluchos is built for mid- and long-distance runs on tracks and trails, and works just as well if you're out hiking in the hills most weekends. The model code is AT202.

Cushioning and ride

The Terra V3 Light uses the brand's Low Density Plus cushioning, designed to take the edge off each footstrike as the miles add up. It has an 8 mm drop, so the heel sits slightly higher than the forefoot – a comfortable middle ground if you're moving over from road running or switching between surfaces and don't want an abrupt change to your stride.

Grip on the trail

The outsole is made with the ATOM GRIP compound and has 4 mm lugs. That's a moderate depth: enough bite on dirt, gravel and mountain paths, without feeling awkward on the stretches of track or tarmac you often need to cover to reach the trailhead. On the paths around Sierra Blanca or the hill routes inland from the Costa del Sol, it's a very versatile set-up.

Who it's for

It suits you if you run off-road a few times a week, are training for a trail race, or simply want a grippy shoe for long walks in the countryside. It also makes a good mixed-terrain trainer if you split your time between town and trail.

Sizing

We stock EU sizes 36 to 41. We'd suggest your usual size; as a guide, the brand's chart gives an EU 36 for a foot length of 22.1–22.7 cm, a 37 for 22.8–23.3 cm and a 38 for 23.4–24.0 cm. If you're unsure, give us a call or drop us an email and we'll help.

How to wear it

For running, pair it with leggings or technical shorts and mid-height running socks to keep grit and twigs out. Off the trail, it looks right with leggings, a hoodie and a light rucksack for weekend getaways.
