What To Wear To Tough Mudder

So, you’ve rounded up your crew, bought your tickets, decided on a team name, and started training. But have you considered what you should wear to your Tough Mudder event?

Here’s what we recommend

Shoes

Lightweight, quick-drying, and comfortable footwear with decent grip is the order of the day.

The foundation of event day gear is a good pair of kicks. There are enough epic obstacles on the course – your footwear shouldn’t be one of them.

Protection: More cushioning and protection for varied terrains and long distances
Traction: Superior traction on muddy terrain and improved grip on smooth surfaces
Drainage: Excellent drainage to keep your feet light
Washability: Clean easily for your next adventure

Step Up Your Sock Game

It’s all in the details. No one enjoys running with gnarly blisters, so step up your sock game with a pair that features anti-friction and quick dry technology to keep your feet feeling fresh no matter how many miles you’re logging.

Tops & Bottoms

Water-wicking compression tops and bottoms are useful, as they will stretch as you move about. Consider protecting your knees, unless you’re really hardcore.

You might get a little dirty, so you might want to bring some spare clothes. A rinse station and change area will be provided.

Not Optional

As you will be outside, please wear sun cream. We are not responsible for sunburnt Mudders.

Optional

A towel
Gloves for extra grip
A water bottle (although we will provide these too)
A hat
Fancy dress – we HIGHLY recommend
