Salomon Sense Ride 2 GORE-TEX Invisible Fit Trail Running Shoes
The new SENSE RIDE 2 GORE-TEX with GORE-TEX INVISIBLE FIT is an ideal training partner for all runs in adverse conditions. The membrane is integrated into the outer material instead of a traditional booty, giving this shoe a feel that is more like traditional mesh. More comfort in more conditions. Get out there.
GORE-TEX Invisible Fit
3D mesh uppers will encase each foot in breathable comfort. Perforations in the fabric increase airflow to create a better, healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. To avoid damp feet, and therefore dampened spirits, a GORE-TEX INVISIBLE FIT membrane resides inside the shoe; it integrates with the mesh upper to supply a combination of durable waterproofing and optimised breathability. Sometimes it's hard to stay dry without developing that distracting clammy feeling, but GORE-TEX keeps water on the outside while letting perspiration escape from the inside; keeping sweat to a minimum and you, cool and comfy. By perfectly matching the GORE-TEX membrane to the footwear upper material, wrinkles and folds are eliminated, reducing pressure points and creating a true-to-size forefoot area. Reduced weight, less water pick-up and faster drying times are among the other benefits of this running shoe technology. A Sensifit system cradles the foot providing a precise and secure fit whilst the endofit system is designed to hug the foot in exactly the right places to improve feedback and foot wrapping. Completing the upper is a Quick Lacing System which provides a minimalistic and strong lace for a one-pull tightening ensuring you get the shoes on and off with minimal effort. A lace pocket is useful as it allows the laces to be stowed away making sure the laces do not get caught or snagged on any sticks or bushes out on the trail, reducing distractions.
Vibe Midsole
The unique Vibe technology midsole construction combines EnergyCell+ and Opal to attenuate fatigue-causing vibrations and produce a cushioned yet responsive ride. EnergyCell+ is a high-rebound midsole compound that provides exceptional energy return while also delivering substantial cushioning and durability; its reactive nature means the use of superfluous muscle power is reduced, diminishing fatigue and enhancing performance, keeping you going for longer. Embedded within the EnergyCell+ platform, sits Opal. Soft, cushy and responsive, Opal helps to spare your joints as you strike down onto hard, unforgiving concrete. Cushioned and bouncy, it's the best of both worlds, plus it maintains its performance in extreme temperatures and is lightweight and durable. An Ortholite die-cut insole is extremely soft and comfortable and works to wick away moisture keeping the feet cool and dry at all times. Completing the midsole is profeel film which protects the soles of your feet on rough, rocky terrain.
Premium Wet Traction Contagrip Rubber
The Sense Ride 2 utilises Salomon's latest Premium Wet Traction Contragrip rubber compound. The lugs are highly separated to help facilitate responsiveness, grip, and allows for a more efficient mud and snow release. The Premium Wet Traction rubber is more than a technology, it's a mentality. You can simply ignore slippery terrain and charge ahead. Contagrip MA is built for the widest variety of surfaces; it ensures confidence on wet, dry, hard or loose surfaces whilst still offering long-term durability. Full premium wet traction grip is more than a technology, it's a mentality; you can simply ignore wet ground and charge ahead.
