Go further with the Tarkine Giants, a versatile all-rounder that excels on long-distance, technical terrain. Built for ultra distance durability and comfort, the Giants offer an ideal balanced experience: a supercritical foam for impact protection and energy response, a supportive upper for stability on uneven ground, paired with a reliable grip that inspires confidence.

At its core is a cutting-edge supercritical midsole foam, created through a high-pressure gas infusion process that results in an ultra-fine cell structure. This makes the shoe lighter, more responsive, and more durable than traditional EVA. Whether you are a dedicated ultra-runner or a weekend explorer, the Giants deliver a comfortable, resilient ride that doesn't compromise on its commitment to the planet.

Dan & Ashton at Pace

"Dan & Ashton at Pace Athletic - Crows Nest were fabulously helpful! They know their products very well, understood what my physio wanted for me in a durable shoe for high kms walking and found EXACTLY the correct one for me! I knew it when I put the on and although it’s early days, the 10,000 steps every day and comfortably supported by my Tarkine Giants. I’ll be getting a second pair soon. Thanks again to the staff at Pace Athletic! Steve"

Comfort and Stability is what I got!

"The Tarkine Giants have been incredible since I got them. I've used them in a race, on long runs and social runs and they have been brilliant throughout. It's got solid lugs to help the stability on the trails, and it's got good cushioning to help with that comfort. I definitely plan on using these shoes on all trails I take on!!"

Good ethics comfortable shoe

"Just what I wanted, a cushioned trail shoe with sole to suit my trail and semi-trail running in NSW (fire trails, sandstone, mud, grassed). Light and comfortable fit that suits my broad high feet. An equal to Hoka and New Balance equivalents."
