Designing Ronhill Footwear, with Harry Bolton

In this episode, Finlay is joined by Harry Bolton, the product designer behind Ronhill's first range of trail footwear.

Based near Keswick in the Lake District, Harry lives and breathes off-road running with several major race wins to his name, including being crowned both English and British U23 Fell Running Champion in 2022. Combine his fell running prowess with his Sports Engineering credentials and it's easy to see why Harry is perfectly placed to design and test trail running footwear for renowned brand Ronhill.

Harry explains how he got into running, where his passion for product design stemmed from, and talks us through the making of Ronhill's two new trail shoes: the Freedom and the Reverence.

We dig into the technical features and differences between each of these shoes - the Freedom being the more versatile option for harder packed trails and dry terrain; the Reverence being the more aggressive option for steep, technical trails and soft, wet terrain.
