Salomon Wildcross GORE-TEX Trail Running Shoes
No matter what conditions are thrown at you, the Salomon Wildcross GORE-TEX Trail Running Shoes are designed to provide you with stability and control to ensure that every adventure is completed in complete comfort and protection. A GORE-TEX membrane will provide durable waterproofing to keep your feet feeling dry and comfortable.
GORE-TEX Upper
The upper of the Wildcross has a GORE-TEX membrane, which will mean that you will be protected on the trails from any moisture and rainfall. The membrane found inside the surface of the upper acts as a shield to block out water from entering. Surrounding the upper of the Wildcross Trail Running Shoes is a durable upper which will provide effective protection and stability. The firmness of the shoe will mean that your feet will be held in a firm and strong upright position. The material that surrounds the feet will allow air to enter and exit freely, which will keep you feeling ventilated and comfortable over a long period of time. Warm air that builds up within the shoes is then able to exit and be replaced by cooler air from outside. This will mean that you will feel ventilated over a long period of time. The surface of the shoe will also work to wick any moisture away, which will keep the feet feeling lightweight and comfortable, as well as feeling dry. Covering the toes, the material thickens to protect vulnerable areas from any bumps or knocks that they might receive. The heel has similarly firm protection, which will hold it in a healthy and strong position. The shoes use Sensifit technology, which will protect the feet to ensure that you have a comfortable and personalised fit around the midfoot. The shoes have quick lacing, which will allow you to secure and loosen the fit extremely quickly and securely. Once fastened, the laces can be stored in a pocket, keeping them stored neatly. A soft and padded tongue and ankle collar will feel extremely comfortable, and will also reduce the risk of rubbing and chafing.
Responsive EVA Midsole
Fitted with a moulded EVA footbed which provides an excellent next to foot cushioning and anatomical support. The Dual-Density Compression EVA is a high-quality foam that's responsible for cushioning the foot throughout the running session. It's long-lasting, so it won't break down easily and is also responsive and springy. The Dual-Density is a platform design that prevents the foot from wobbling laterally or medially whilst traversing the trail. It basically keeps the mid-sole firm in that respect. but it doesn't limit the flexibility of the sole unit itself. Runners can still appreciate natural movement, especially when gearing towards the toe-off.
Contagrip Outsole
Ensuring all-terrain grip, the outsole of the Wildcross has been constructed using Contagrip. The full rubber outsole provides premium traction on loose terrain ensuring a solid bond between you and the ground. The Contagrip outsole is built for the widest variety of surfaces; it ensures confidence on wet, dry, hard or loose surfaces whilst still offering long-term durability so you can go further for longer with complete confidence in your footwear. As well as this, the outsole also features multidirectional lugs which dig deep into the ground when braking or changing direction. The deep lugs are able to anchor the foot into wet and muddy ground, securing you into place whilst also forming a solid base to push off from.
