Thule Urban Glide 3 All-Terrain Stroller

Thule Urban Glide 3 All-Terrain Stroller: Premium 3-Wheel Performance Pushchair

Discover the iconic Thule Urban Glide 3 - the ultimate full-size all-terrain stroller engineered for active families who refuse to compromise on performance, comfort, or style. Designed and rigorously tested in Sweden, this premium three-wheeled pushchair delivers unmatched manoeuvrability and a supremely smooth ride across any surface, from city pavements to woodland trails.

Swedish Engineering Excellence

Built at the Thule Test Center in Hillerstorp, Sweden, the Urban Glide 3 undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it can handle the toughest conditions. Every stroller is subjected to rough terrain evaluation, stability testing, and impact force simulation—because Thule understands these pushchairs transport the most important people in the world. This commitment to quality means you can trust the Urban Glide 3 to perform reliably through years of active family adventures.

Thule Urban Glide 3 has Unmatched All-Terrain Performance

The Thule Urban Glide 3 excels where ordinary pushchairs struggle. Large 40 cm (16") air-filled rear tyres combined with quality suspension deliver an exceptionally smooth ride for both parent and child, regardless of surface. The pneumatic tyres absorb bumps and vibrations effortlessly, transforming rough paths into comfortable journeys. Whether you're navigating cracked pavements, gravel tracks, grass fields, or forest trails, the Urban Glide 3 glides smoothly forward.

The swivel front wheel provides remarkable manoeuvrability through crowded streets, narrow shop aisles, and tight corners. When you're ready to pick up the pace for jogging or traversing uneven terrain, simply lock the front wheel into place for enhanced stability and tracking. This dual functionality makes the Urban Glide 3 equally adept at urban errands and countryside adventures.

Lightweight Agility Meets Robust Construction

At just 11.9 kg, the Urban Glide 3 proves that lightweight construction needn't compromise durability. The aluminium frame with steel and nylon components provides robust strength whilst remaining easy to manoeuvre. Parents consistently praise how effortlessly the pushchair responds to steering inputs, even when loaded with shopping and pushing at pace.

This lightweight design reduces fatigue during longer outings, making it particularly appealing for active parents who incorporate exercise into family time. The pushchair's responsive handling means you can maintain a natural running gait rather than fighting against a heavy, unwieldy frame.

Integrated Twist Hand Brake

The innovative twist hand brake provides smooth, progressive speed control on descents and challenging terrain. Unlike traditional foot brakes that require you to stop completely, the hand brake allows continuous speed adjustment—essential for safely navigating hills, maintaining control during jogs, or moderating pace through busy areas. The ergonomic twist mechanism is intuitive to operate and provides confidence-inspiring stopping power when you need it most.

Enhanced Comfort Features

The Urban Glide 3 introduces significant comfort improvements over previous generations. The built-in leg rest extends from the seat bottom to the footrest, providing proper support for little legs whether your child is alert and observing or settling down for a nap. This thoughtful design detail prevents uncomfortable dangling and promotes better circulation during longer outings.

The comfortable seat features an adjustable recline operated via a one-hand toggle system. Whilst it doesn't sit completely upright (standard for all-terrain strollers to maintain safety and stability), it provides four comfortable positions from alert observation to lie-flat napping. The deep, well-padded seat cocoons your child securely whilst providing generous space for growth.

Full Coverage Canopy with Ventilation

The large extended canopy provides comprehensive sun and weather protection, shielding your child from harmful UV rays and light rain. Integrated ventilation panels ensure airflow during warm weather, preventing overheating whilst maintaining coverage. The canopy's impressive size means your child stays protected even when the sun is low, and it extends far enough to shield them from wind and drizzle during changeable British weather.

Spacious, Practical Storage

The large cargo basket features a zip-top cover to secure contents and protect shopping from weather. With a 7 kg capacity, there's ample room for changing bags, shopping, picnic supplies, and all the paraphernalia active families accumulate. A rear mesh pocket provides quick access to essentials like phones and keys, whilst two additional mesh compartments keep snacks and small toys within easy reach.

One-Handed Compact Fold on Thule Urban Glide 3

Despite its full-size capabilities, the Urban Glide 3 folds compactly with one hand and features a self-stand function for convenient storage. The folded dimensions (88 x 58 x 31 cm) fit comfortably in most car boots, and the self-standing feature means you needn't prop it against walls or lay it flat. This practical design consideration makes the pushchair genuinely convenient for families who travel frequently or have limited storage space.

From Birth Travel System Capability

Whilst the seat is suitable from approximately 6 months when your baby can sit supported, the Urban Glide 3 transforms into a from-birth travel system when paired with the Thule Bassinet (sold separately) or compatible infant car seat adaptors (sold separately). This versatility means you can invest in one premium pushchair that serves your family from newborn through toddler years.

The universal car seat compatibility allows you to create a seamless travel system with most major infant car seat brands, preserving your sleeping baby's peace during transitions from car to pushchair.

Perfect for Active Families

The Urban Glide 3 has become the pushchair of choice for parents who prioritise fitness and outdoor adventure. The lightweight frame, responsive handling, and lockable front wheel make it suitable for jogging (from 6 months, consult your paediatrician), whilst the quality suspension and air-filled tyres ensure your child rides comfortably at any pace.

Many parents report successfully using the Urban Glide 3 for tempo runs, interval training, and even racing—some achieving impressive times whilst pushing their children. The ergonomic handlebar positioning promotes natural arm posture, reducing fatigue and allowing you to maintain proper running form.

Swedish Design Aesthetic

The Thule Urban Glide 3 embodies Scandinavian design principles: clean lines, functional elegance, and thoughtful details. The sleek profile turns heads on city streets, whilst the quality materials and careful construction demonstrate premium craftsmanship. Reflective detailing on wheels, canopy, and basket ensures visibility during low-light conditions—essential for early morning or evening outings.

Thule Urban Glide 3 is Built to Last

Thule constructs the Thule Urban Glide 3 from materials free from harmful substances, ensuring safe use with newborns and young children. The polyester fabric cover resists weather and wear, whilst the powder-coated aluminium frame maintains its appearance through years of use. This durability means the pushchair retains both functionality and aesthetic appeal, making it an excellent investment that can serve multiple children.
