Jeff Staple is known for shaping how sneakers sit at the intersection of culture, design, and narrative, Staple’s move into trail footwear signals Brooks’ wider ambition to be part of lifestyle conversations, not just performance ones. The Cascadia 1 is an inspired choice in that context. Originally built for off-road stability and long-distance comfort, it carries credibility without being overexposed, making it fertile ground for reinterpretation rather than nostalgia.
Staple’s Cascadia 1 leans heavily into natural tones. A light brown open mesh base gives the shoe breathability and softness, while darker brown suede overlays add structure and depth. There’s a subtle ruggedness to the upper, reinforced by textured leather panels around the toe and lower sidewalls, which echo the shoe’s outdoor roots without tipping into technical excess. Pops of deep red arrive through the laces and stitching, a familiar Staple signature that adds contrast and warmth while staying tasteful.
Underfoot, Brooks keeps the Cascadia’s original intent intact. The midsole and outsole setup remains trail-ready, designed to handle varied terrain with confidence. A gum outsole finishes the look, grounding the colour palette.
