Salomon has some experience when it comes to gear for the outdoors. Running, hiking, skiing, snowboarding – all covered and all quality. To this day, their hydration vests are some of my very favorites for long trail runs. So I was really stoked to get the opportunity to test out their new Aero Glide shoes, which are a great option for an everyday road shoe. They look super cushy (which sometimes equates to heavy,) but…
“Aero Volt is our wild child all-urban runner” Check out our other review of the Aero Volt Here! Now I have never been called “a wild child,” but I am happy to try on the label for a anything that will help summertime running. The new Aero Volt from Salomon uses a lightweight mesh on the top that is a bit see-through, with just enough fabric to keep your foot secure without adding any extra…
When I think of Salomon, I immediately venture to shoes and gear tailored for serious trail runners. While I hit the trails from time to time, a “serious” trail jetsetter I am not. So, I was very eager to try out the Aero Volt – a road/light trail hybrid from Salomon. See all our Reviews of Salomon! Looks: The looks of the Salomon Aero Volt are honestly the thing that got me interested in this shoe.…
I’m always happy to sing the praises of Salomon trail running gear – it’s innovative, sleek, and often synonymous with elite. We all know shoes are probably the most subjective piece of running gear and Salomon is coming out with some great options that meet in the middle of minimal vs. high drop. The Pulsar Trail Pro 2 has a 6mm drop, 3.5mm lugs, my favorite Quicklace system (with lace garage), an integrated gaiter, and…
Stride. Turnover. Cadence. Running is really the simplest form of sport, with the essence being the efficiency of those three actions. Seeing as the only part of our body that touches the ground is our feet, the gear we shod ourselves with is of utmost importance. With 15 years of running experience and countless miles, I know my way around a running shoe. But trail running shoes are something that I don’t often run in.…
I find the name of this shoe to be the most aptly named shoe I have run into. The Salomon Predict 2 is just that – an extremely stable, reliable, and predictable ride. Perfect for those that want a shoe to that will perform to their exact expectations each and every time. That’s not to say that all shoes don’t offer a solid ride, but this one with its sturdy rails and cushy support will…
There’s no denying that Salomon is a mega brand on the trail running scene. From shoes to hydration packs to shorts / shirts / hats, you’ll see it on any trail. I love my own Salomon gear – many are staples and must-haves on all my runs. Their shoes are known for either being high drop and luggy, or minimal and light-weight. They’ve introduced a new shoe this year, though, the Ultra Glide, that has…
Stride. Turnover. Cadence. Running is really the simplest form of sport, with the essence being the efficiency of those three actions. Seeing as the only part of our body that touches the ground is our feet, the gear we shod ourselves with is of utmost importance. With 22 years of running experience and countless miles, I can often pick a favorable shoe from a picture, which is exactly what I did with the Salomon Sonic…
