Salomon S/LAB Ultra V2

Performance ready for ultra distances on technical terrain

Developed by one of the most notable trail runner's in ultra distance racing, Francois D'Haene, the Ultra V2 is built from S/LAB innovation for pinnacle performance on race day. The V2 features improved grip and traction, enhanced fitting and foot protection, as well as maintaining the lightweight, springy and resilient foam to provide lightweight and responsive cushioning whatever the distance.

S/LAB Pulsar 4

For Lightweight Speed

Designed for those looking for a greater connection to the trails, the S/LAB Pulsar 4 is the lightweight, foot-hugging racing option for precision and speed for long distance trail running. Now in its 4th iteration, this iconic trail running shoe has been reinvented for long trail races featuring dual foam cushioning for launching propulsion and a specially designed outsole for exceptional grip.

Genesis

Cushioned and stable confident

The Genesis provides the perfect balance of cushioning for longer adventures while maintaining the stability required to tackle technical terrain. It remains dynamic and agile, with Salomon's support chassis, and best for hard-wearing durability whatever the adventure distance. Also available in an S/LAB version, a fan favourite of trail legend, Courtney Dauwalter.

ㅤ

Speedcross 6

A versatile trail partner

Ideal as an entry level option for those new to the trails, the Speedcross 6 is versatile across a wide range of terrains with grippy lugs to tackle technical trails. Featuring less cushioning for a more close to ground feel, the Speedcross 6 is as light as it is powerful while maintaining its status as a comfortable option for trail runs. Also available is the Speedcross Peak

ㅤ

Ultra Glide 3

For all day comfort

The plush comfort option for those who enjoy extra cushioning for their trail adventures while maintaining a responsive pop to have energy in every stride, no matter what the distance. Better suited for lighter, less technical trails yet still viable for outstanding traction on wet, dry, hard, and loose surfaces, giving you stability whilst on the trail. Evolving quite significantly in its 3rd iteration, the Ultra Glide 3 features all new wavy outsole geometry to diffuse pressure for even greater all-day comfort.

ㅤ

XA Pro 3D V9

For grip and stability

Taking many similarities from the Speedcross 6, the XA Pro 3D V9 is a less cushioned option for trail adventures with added stability thanks to Salomon's dynamic support 3D advanced chassis. Featuring dual-density EVA foam, the XA Pro 3D provides energy return for the long haul as well as a new specific lug geometry and pattern that combines the previous pattern of the XA Pro 3D v8 with the pattern of the X Ultra hiking shoe, making this a great option for trail running and hiking alike
