Salomon XT Asama GORE-TEX Women's Trail Running Shoes

The XT Asama GORE-TEX is a waterproof trail running shoe that offers a precise fit and smooth ride needed to fly freely down technical trails.

Synthetic Mesh Upper

Constructed using a synthetic mesh upper, the Salomon XT Asama GORE-TEX Trail Running Shoes are extremely breathable and comfortable which will allow you to push yourself further. The mesh that surrounds the upper allows cool air to circulate throughout its construction creating a perfect microclimate for your skin to thrive in plus, the synthetic overlays increase structure and durability so you can run with complete confidence. To avoid damp feet, and therefore dampened spirits, a GORE-TEX membrane resides inside the shoe; it supplies a combination of durable waterproofing and optimised breathability. Sometimes it's hard to stay dry without developing that distracting clammy feeling, but GORE-TEX keeps water on the outside while letting perspiration escape from the inside, keeping sweat to a minimum and you, cool and comfy. A Sensifit system cradles the foot providing a precise and secure fit. Providing protection on the trails the shoes feature a protective toe cap and mudguard, offering protection against loose debris and muddy conditions on the trail. Completing the upper is a Quick Lacing System which provides a minimalistic and strong lace for a one-pull tightening ensuring you get the shoes on and off with minimal effort. A lace pocket is useful as it allows the laces to be stowed away making sure the laces do not get caught or snagged on any sticks or bushes out on the trail, reducing distractions.

EnergyCell Midsole

The midsole is constructed from EVA to form the EnergyCell midsole, which provides excellent shock-absorbing properties to help protect the foot from shock and impact force. This multi-functional midsole will provide both comfort and protection, as it has dual-density EVA. Towards the bottom, the EVA is extremely firm, which will absorb shocks instantly and effectively, preventing them from causing any damage to the sole of the foot. The energy produced from this will also be returned as rebound, which will give you an added spring in your step. The higher you get in the midsole, the EVA becomes less densely packed, which will make every step feel comfortable. Completing the midsole is an Ortholite sockliner that cushions the foot so you can go further for longer in complete comfort.

Contagrip TD Outsole

Tackle any trails in supreme confidence that you won't be let down by your shoe's grip. Using Contagrip, the outsole can form a solid grip between the shoe and the terrain. Contagrip TD is built for maximum traction on varied terrain and is durable enough to withstand the toughest trails. Built with large lugs, the XT Asama delivers optimum grip to keep you grounded on tough terrain. When you are running on the wet and muddy ground, the shoe's deep chevron lugs dig into the ground, anchoring you in place. This will also benefit you by acting as a solid base for you to push off from when taking a stride, as well as digging into the ground when braking and changing direction.
