Supplemented with water resistant qualities, the boot repels water keeping you dry.

Keeping the overall framework in tact, key placed protective rubber toe cap, heel cap and mud guard all act upon torsion, reducing wear and tear to the boots from oncoming rocks and roots.
Midsole - Flexible and Cushioned Compound.
The Ellipse 2 Aero utilises a removable Die cut OrthoLite sockliner on the interior footbed which combines a specific Ortholite foam and an EVA heel cup. Ortholite foam creates a cooler, drier, healthier, better cushioned environment under the foot. It will not break down or lose effectiveness over time. Recycled tire content to protect the environment. EVA heel cups allows for a better heel support and added cushioning.
Supporting mile after mile of trekking, an injected EVA lines the midsole - an industry leader on good merit, EVA is both light and flexible, with a great disposition as a cushioning material. It actively reduces forces pressed upon the underfoot for a smooth stride through transition with ample of shock dispersion. The format assists with keeping weight down and maximising responsive cushioning whatever the terrain ahead.
Outsole - Floor Fighting Traction and Control.
The Ellipse 2 Aero is embedded with Salomon's lightweight advanced chassis, placed between the outsole and midsole, maximizes motion control, energy management and push through protection for an efficient, stable and responsive ride. The Contagrip outsole employed is designed specifically to deliver a greater purchase underfoot on a range of differing terrains, whether that be mountainous terrains or leafy treks, its sticky floor fighting grip is paramount to keeping you stabilised and supported when tackling the trail.
