Find The perfect Salomon Shoes & Boots For Running, Trail & Hiking

Before choosing a shoe, think about where it will be used most:

• Hiking → need support, stability, and strong traction
• Trail Running → need lightweight shoes with excellent grip
• Everyday Walking / Travel → need comfort, cushioning, and flexibility

Different activities require different features — this step is the key to choosing the right model.

• Easy trails → flexible, lightweight shoes
• Moderate terrain → balanced support with stronger grip
• Difficult / rocky terrain → higher stability and durable construction

More difficult terrain = more support and protection needed.

GORE-TEX (GTX)
Best for rain, mud, cold weather, and wet environments.

Non-GTX
Lighter and more breathable — ideal for warm climates and dry trails.

Choose based on the weather conditions the user faces most.

Salomon shoes are known for a slightly snug fit, especially in the forefoot.

Tips:
• Leave a little space in the toe box
• Look for Wide versions if the person has wider feet

Comfort should always be the top priority.

• Lightweight shoes → great for long distances and fast movement
• Heavier shoes → better for durability, protection, and support

Weight affects energy and comfort — match it to the activity.

Salomon uses several outsole types for different conditions:

• Contagrip All Terrain → everyday hiking, mixed surfaces
• Contagrip Mud → muddy, wet, or slippery trails
• Contagrip MA → balance between grip and stability

The outsole has a huge impact on performance.

• Low-cut → faster, lighter, ideal for trail running
• Mid-cut → ankle support for regular hiking
• High-cut → maximum protection for tough terrain and heavy loads
