Salomon SONIC RA MAX Women's Running Shoes
For runners who need a little more assistance from their daily training shoe, the Salomon Sonic RA Max Running Shoes offer a comfortable, dynamic ride along with added cushioning and confidence to help you put in the miles.
Breathable Mesh Upper
The upper of the Salomon Sonic RA Max Running Shoes are constructed with a quick-drying air mesh that allows extreme breathability ensuring air can permeate the entire upper of the shoe to provide a better climate keeping your feet cool when the temperature rises. Fitted with the Sensifit system, it works to cradle the foot by providing a precise and secure fit. Additionally, An OrthoLite sockliner combines a specific Ortholite foam. Ortholite foam creates a cooler, drier, healthier, better-cushioned environment under the foot. It will not break down or lose effectiveness over time.
The No-Sew Upper consists of thin TPU film and synthetic suede overlays that are welded to the mesh. This construction has virtually no stitching minimising irritation points within the shoe and maximising comfort. Furthermore, it provides plenty of structure, conformable fit and is lightweight. Added to this is the traditional lacing system that provides the familiarity, adjustability and comforts the runners on the road prefers.
EnergyCell+ Midsole
EnergyCell+ is a high-rebound midsole compound that provides exceptional energy return while also delivering substantial cushioning and durability. Profeel Film engages during the transition phase to support the foot and improve the overall rolling of the shoes during toe off. It provides a mechanism linking the rear part of the shoes to the forefoot and provides consistency and stability through the middle of the shoe. Opal is a cushioning compound that is inserted into the midsole that provides a soft and comfortable underfoot ride with the benefit of high-rebound. Cushioned and bouncy, the best of both worlds. In addition, Opal is extremely lightweight, durable and maintains its performance in extreme temperatures.
Vibe Technology is the combination of EnergyCell+, Opal, and unique assembly that work together as a system to attenuate vibrations reducing a potentially harmful load to the body while delivering a responsive ride. Moving up and down the avenue. RA is the starting point. Great balance of cushioning resiliency and smooth ride. Geometric Decoupling works with the foot allowing smooth and efficient load guidance translating into an effortless and efficient heel to toe transition.
Wet Traction Contagrip Outsole
The forefoot section has a section where the rubber compound is slightly thicker and the gripping lugs are slightly more aggressive to give you that traction you need when climbing over objects. This section facilitates better climbing mechanics and surface control, delivering traction whenever it is needed. With the use of multi-directional gripping lugs, it allows the shoe to hold onto different types of surfaces with ease, even on wet surfaces, preventing slippage. The outsole is made with a premium wet traction contagrip which is a durable rubber compound that covers the platform of the Salomon Sonic Running Shoes. It prevents the abrasive trails from causing damage to the underside of the shoes.
