As already seen in other Salomon shoes like Sense Mantra 3, internal fit sleeve (Endofit™) wraps the foot for better comfort and also prevents slippage combined with OrthoLite® insoles. Reinforced Sensifit™ provides secure fit driven by Quicklace™ lacing system whose excess can be stored in own lace pocket to prevent snagging.
SALOMON WING PRO 2 RUNNING SHOES FOR WOMEN BLACK DARK PINK PRO
It is easy to identify the Wings Pro 2 as a Salomon shoe because upper follows typical pattern of modern and aggresive design from the french brand. The Gore-Tex® (GTX) edition provides water and windproof protection under hostile weather conditions. I feel comfortable letting it rip downhill,” one tester raved.Robust Salomon Wings Pro 2 evolves from old good XT Wings 3 to remain one of the most popular trail running shoe and a great choice for medium/long distances over technical terrain. One tester said the new model boosted her confidence. Our favorite feature remains the shoe’s traction-4mm diamond-shaped lugs bite into soft dirt and mud but are made of sticky rubber that grips both wet and dry ground. There’s less fabric around the upper part of the heel, but cushioned pods lock your foot in place and limit unwanted sliding, while the tongue wraps around the midfoot like a sleeve. The upper on the 4 continues to make use of minimal overlays and stitching to reduce the risk of hot spots, though there’s more coverage over the toes for protection. The previous version of the Sense Ride was incredibly comfortable, reliable, and durable for everyday trail running and racing, so Salomon didn’t mess with it.
“I’m not sure I would take this on a double-digit mileage run-an easy-effort 10K was the ideal distance for this shoe.” “While the heel cushioning seemed to absorb impact uniformly and didn’t ever feel like I bottomed out, there wasn’t enough forefoot cushioning for me,” one tester said. Rather than having medial posts or foams of different densities, the midsole uses firm outsole pillars with grooves aligned with the joints of your foot, so you get an exceptionally smooth, stable ride-ideal for training on the road. It’s paired with the same grooved midsole construction that made its predecessor, the Predict RA, flexible yet supportive without any traditional stability features. The latest version comes upgraded with the company’s new Infiniride cushioning, which delivers a slightly softer landing than Salomon’s other road shoes, according to our testers. The Predict is part of Salomon’s road line, and it brings some impressive technology to the asphalt. Some testers experienced rubbing from the high ankle collar.Severe overpronators may need more support.(Ex: A men’s 7 is a women’s 8.) Additional stock and sizing will be available early June 2021. *Since this shoe is unisex, add 1 to the listed men’s size to get the women’s size.
Even so, the Phantasm has a pretty harsh, if smooth-rolling, ride. The midsole is a thin slab of “Energy Surge” foam, which combines EVA with a copolymer compound that makes it bouncier and softer than EVA alone. That design, however, makes the shoe better suited for shorter road races than marathons or ultras. One tester agreed that, even though there are lighter options out there, somehow this shoe feels like it weighs less. (Ultimately, Kilian missed the record, but you can’t fault the shoe.) The featherweight design gives you just enough material to keep the Phantasm stuck to your foot and go fast.
It isn’t Salomon’s first road-racing shoe, but it is the brand’s most minimal. The S/Lab Phantasm received a lot of hype late in 2020 as Kilian Jornet attempted to break Yiannis Kouros’s ultra-stout 24-hour world record.
