Salomon X Ultra 3 MID GORE-TEX Women's Walking Boots
The ever-popular X ULTRA 3 MID GTX offers the lightweight precision and foothold you need for technical ascents and descents. Utilising Descent Control Technology, this shoe hugs your feet comfortably for more confidence to attack the downhills.
GORE-TEX Extended Comfort Upper
The Salmon X Ultra 3 is constructed with a combination of water-resistant textile which reduces the risk of water entry and a waterproof PU coated leather which boosts durability properties for a supportive fit. A GORE-TEX Performance Comfort membrane lies beneath the upper to ensure water stays on the outside while perspiration can easily escape from the inside. Located on top of the upper is the Sensifit system which cradles the foot from the midsole to the lacing system, providing a secure, snug, and virtually customised fit all around the foot. A heel strap offers assistance when putting on and taking the shoe off, whilst also doubling up as a perfect way of hanging the boots to a backpack when not in use. Protection is key while out on the trails, so don't worry when wearing the X Ultra 3 shoes as they feature a protective heel cap for rearfoot stability and a protective rubber toe cap to enhance protection from loose or sharp rocks. Finishing off the upper is the mud guard which is a protective material all around the base of the shoe to help reduce the build-up of mud.
EVA Midsole
Lined with an EVA shaped footbed, it provides excellent cushioning with anatomically designed support. For additional comfort, an Ortholite sockliner is used to create a cooler, drier, healthier and better-cushioned environment under the foot. This material will not break down or lose effectiveness over time. Injected EVA is the main component of the midsole which offers lightweight flexibility. It actively reduces forces pressed upon the underfoot for a smooth stride through the transition with ample of shock dispersion. The format assists with keeping weight down and maximising responsive cushioning, whatever the terrain ahead. Surrounded by foam cushioning is the Advanced Chassis which is placed between the midsole and outsole to maximise motion control, energy management and push through protection for an efficient, stable and responsive ride.
High Traction Contagrip Outsole
Two different types of rubber are stategically placed on the sole for durabiltiy and more grip. Aggressive lugs in the heel area grab the terrain, giving you more control when you're moving along at a healthy stride.
