Salomon Genesis Men's Trail Running Shoes

A mountain shoe that's as comfortable and confidence-boosting as it is dynamic, agile and primed for adventure. Designed for hard-wearing durability and meticulous precision in tricky terrain. No rugged climb is too steep, no descent too sketchy. With a dynamic support chassis and reliable grip.

Matryx Upper

The Genesis has been constructed using Salomon's unique Matryx construction to keep your feet protected, cool and comfortable on the trails. The materials are highly durable and abrasive-resistant, to protect your feet from knocks and bumps and provide you with a long-lasting pair of shoes that you can rely on for every adventure. The fabrics are highly breathable to help prevent overheating and keep feet cool and cosy on long trail adventures, whilst moisture-wicking properties help to reduce a build-up of sweat and moisture, therefore keeping feet dry on the move. Strategically placed overlays further protect the shoes from damage and keep your feet shielded from rocks and debris. The shoes have a cushioned tongue and collar to keep you comfortable, reducing the risk of irritation and keeping your feet secure. An EndoFit system features to hug your foot in the perfect place and provides you with a precise fit. Working alongside this, the Quicklace system allows you to make changes to the fit of the shoes with ease, further keeping them secure and feet locked in, therefore preventing in-shoe slipping from occurring.

optiFOAM Midsole

Built on a springy and comfortable midsole compound that delivers punch and pop while smoothing out your landings for a fluid ride, the Genesis provides lightweight and responsive cushioning. OptiFOAM is a lightweight, springy and resilient foam compound that powers your stride forward. This lightweight, responsive delivers a maximum level of cushioning to ensure optimum in-shoe comfort and a responsive ride. Shock-absorbing properties prevent discomfort or injury by absorbing the impact caused by striking down on tough and changing surfaces. Additionally, the Genesis has an Active Chassis to provide a great amount of support, helping to prevent injuries from occurring and keeping feet comfortable.

All-Terrain Contagrip Outsole

Crafted with an All-Terrain Contagrip, the outsole perfectly balances geometry with rubber to deliver confident running on a wide range of surfaces. The outsole has a unique two-part lug pattern along with a raised tread, which offers an adaptable, secure grip, even on difficult terrains and sketchy situations. The deep lugs can anchor the foot into wet and muddy ground, securing you in place whilst also forming a solid base to push off from. This durable Contagrip on the outsole is trustworthy on a wide variety of surfaces, making the Salomon Genesis the perfect long-lasting running companion for any trail.
