Salomon Alphacross Blast CSWP Junior Trail Running Shoes

Designed to evolve in tough conditions, this shoe gives your kids all the extra grip and waterproof protection they need for off-road adventures. Whether for running or hiking, the ALPHACROSS BLAST CSWP J helps keep little feet dry and protected. The shoe is also comfy with a soft lining, generous fit and spongy foam.

Welded Mesh

Welded mesh uppers will encase each foot in breathable comfort. Perforations in the fabric increase airflow to create a better, healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. Moving naturally with your foot, the welded upper ensures maximum comfort and unrivaled durability. Furthermore, to ensure you're kept cool, dry and comfortable in wet weather, a ClimaSalomon Waterproof membrane remains unaffected by water even when under pressure. The fully waterproof membrane ensures protection from harsh rain and snow by preventing water from entering through the upper. Completing the upper is a lacing system which locks down the midfoot so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.

Energy Cell Midsole

Within the midsole, the shoe has injected and compressed EVA which forms the EnergyCell Midsole. 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. An OrthoLite sockliner also exists underfoot to provide the foot with a cushioned and cooler environment, whilst also reducing the risk of irritation caused by rubbing and chafing.

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 is able to form a solid grip between shoe and 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 Alphacross 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.
