Women's Trail Running Clothing
The Women's Textile trail running page brings together the outfit for female trail runners: winter leggings Elite Lab and adidas, waterproof and reflective jackets, t-shirts and vests adidas and Dynafit, shorts, sweatshirts, beanies, and merino socks Lorpen and Sums.
Run on the trails all year round.
The cold season
In winter, the trail runner first protects her legs: winter leggings, like the Elite Lab X1 Windblock, cut the wind at the front of the thighs, the most exposed area. A long sleeve half-zip top, like the Elite Lab Core, can be adjusted to release heat on climbs. A lightweight waterproof jacket protects against rain, and a beanie keeps warmth. Merino socks, like Lorpen or Sums, stay warm even when wet.

The women's textile is organised by type:
- Jackets and Windbreakers.

Being visible
Winter outings often start before dawn or finish at dusk, sometimes on roads to reach the trails. A reflective jacket, like the Endurance Rumey Light The Night, reflects car headlights and makes the runner visible from afar. Reflective elements on leggings and tops complete the effect. A headlamp lights the path and signals her presence to others.
Summer and fit
In summer, it's time for lightweight shorts, like the Dynafit Alpine Pro, tank tops and quick-drying tops. Women's models are tailored to the female body shape, with a waistband that holds without squeezing and more fitted tops. The 7/8 leggings, like the adidas Adi365, are suitable for the mid-season. Technical clothes should be washed at low temperatures, without fabric softener, to maintain moisture-wicking properties.

Frequently asked questions
How should a woman dress for a winter trail?
You apply the three-layer system: a breathable top close to the body, a warm layer such as a long sleeve top, then a waterproof jacket. A windproof winter legging, a beanie, and gloves complete the outfit.
Why choose merino socks for trail running?
Merino wool regulates temperature, retains some warmth even when wet, and limits odours. The Lorpen and Sums merino socks also protect against chafing on long outings.
What is the difference between trail textiles and road running textiles?
Trail textiles are more resistant to friction from the bag and branches, with more pockets to carry water and bars. The jackets are also more protective, as the weather can change quickly in the mountains.
How to choose the fit of a women's trail short?
A loose short allows for breathability, while fitted tights prevent chafing between the thighs on long distances. A two-in-one short combines both, with built-in tights under a lightweight short.
How to maintain technical trail clothing?
Wash at 30 degrees, inside out, without softener, which clogs the fibres and affects moisture-wicking. Avoid tumble drying and occasionally reactivate the water-repellent feature of waterproof jackets.
