ANTA Saker 3 BOA All-Terrain Trail Running Shoes — Vibram MegaGrip

The ANTA Champion Saker 3 BOA (冠军猎隼 3 BOA) was not designed to win elite mountain races. It was designed for everyone who runs on trails before the elites arrive — the first-time trail runner who wants grip and cushion over carbon propulsion, the hiker who needs hands-free lace security on technical descents, the commuter who crosses wet city tiles in the morning and gravel paths in the afternoon. It is the most accessible shoe in the Saker 3 family, and in many ways the most versatile.

The Saker 3 BOA was developed in collaboration with the HK100 — the Hong Kong 100 Ultra Marathon, one of Asia's most demanding trail races — and reflects the race's philosophy: that trail running should be open to more people, not fewer. The result is a shoe built around three best-in-class component partnerships and a geometry designed to support natural movement rather than force an elite gait.

In independent third-party testing by the Shenzhen Institute of Metrology and Quality Inspection (Report No. WT40103261013049WT3), the Saker 3 BOA scored far above Chinese national and industry standards across all three core trail shoe metrics — earning the 2026 Boiling Quality Award Gold Medal for Cushioned Trail Running Shoes.
