8 Salomon Trail Running Shoes for Really Everyone

- Promotion -
Health-promoting, stylish, light and lots of grip: Trail running shoes have to meet a number of requirements today. Only where you've been on foot, you've really been. A quotation from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, which is lived intensively by many today. The right footwear is the be-all and end-all when it comes to running sports. This is especially true for trail running. More and more runners discover their challenges at trail running.

The French mountain and ultra-marathon runner François D'Haene knows how crucial the right trail running shoes are. The athlete crossed the island of Corsica in 31 hours and 6 minutes in 2016, setting a new record. The 33-year-old is a member of the international Salomon trail running team. During his Greek challenge, he wore a prototype of an ultrarunning shoe that he had developed together with the Salomon R&D team. "Since it is an ultra-trail shoe, it must be able to cope with all the conditions and terrain structures that you encounter during an ultra-race," explains D'haene. "This means, however, that you have to set priorities for the function, since you cannot consider all points equally. Performance had the highest priority here. The shoe must be light, but at the same time it must not lose any comfort or protection over long distances. A bit like a Formula 1 car being adapted for longer distances and narrower paths."

Whether it is the small local loop through the next forest, a long run on forest paths or the extreme mountain round with 2000 meters of altitude in the Alps - trail running has many facets. And each requires the right trail running shoes. Salomon offers a whole range of trail running shoes. We have selected eight shoe models with which all outdoor fanatics can experience a new feeling of freedom in nature. With these models from Salomon you are perfectly equipped for your next trail round, whether in an urban park or in alpine terrain.
