Salomon X Ultra 5 Women's Walking Shoes
The X Ultra 5 is your dependable, confidence-boosting hiking ally. Lightweight yet stable, this shoe excels at charging up hills as well as tackling descents. Designed to keep you safe and agile on trails, it has an ultra-durable Matryx upper, a long-lasting Contagrip outsole for grip and traction, and a collar area tailored for lasting comfort.
Matryx Upper
Designed using a Matryx upper, the X Ultra 5 has been constructed using a high-performance textile designed to resist abrasion with individually coated high-tenacity Kevlar and technical yarn that also makes it light and breathable. Working alongside this, the shoes are made from a woven ripstop fabric with additional reinforcements to prevent tearing, ripping, and abrasion, providing you with a long-lasting, reliable pair of shoes. A Sensifit system cradles the foot, providing a precise and secure fit. A textile lining encases each foot in breathable comfort while Active support helps hold the foot in place and accompany its movement. Completing the upper is a Quicklace system, which locks the midfoot for a secure fit and comes with a lace pocket to stow the lacing system away.
EnergyCell Midsole
Within the midsole, the X Ultra utilises EnergyCell technology, providing both comfort and protection. Towards the bottom, the midsole is firm, which helps absorb shocks instantly, preventing damage to the sole. The energy produced from this will be returned as a rebound, which offers an added spring in your step. The higher you get in the midsole, the EVA becomes less dense, which makes every step feel comfortable. In addition to this, an Advanced Chassis also resides, which helps to optimise stability without limiting your mobility while also keeping the front of the shoes flexible for a more fluid ride. A moulded OrthoLite sockliner completes the midsole, which is extremely soft and comfortable, working to wick away moisture, keeping the feet cool and dry at all times.
All-Terrain Contagrip Outsole
An updated outsole to their predecessors, the X Ultra 5 features the ultra-grippy All-Terrain Contagrip outsole, providing you with an unmatched level of grip and traction on varied terrain. This improved compound means the shoes will not only form a solid grip on the terrain but will also work to shed mud quickly. This is due to their large lugs, providing the perfect level of grip on all types of terrain, including wet and muddy conditions, thanks to their deep lugs, which dig into the ground, anchoring you in place. This will benefit you by providing a solid base to push off from when taking the next stride, as well as digging into the ground when braking or changing direction.
