Salomon S/Lab Ultra Trail Running Shoes White/Red/Vanilla Ice

The Salomon S/Lab Ultra is a premium trail running shoe engineered for long-distance ultra-marathons on mixed and technical terrain. Its standout capability is the combination of a Matryx® upper with Energy Surge™ midsole, delivering exceptional durability, breathability, and energy return over extreme distances.

Advantages

Built with a Matryx® fabric upper reinforced with aramid fibers, the S/Lab Ultra offers outstanding abrasion resistance while maintaining a lightweight, breathable fit. The Energy Surge™ midsole foam provides a lively, responsive ride with moderate cushioning, reducing fatigue during hours on the trail. The Contagrip® MA outsole with 4 mm lugs ensures reliable grip on both wet and dry surfaces, from rocky ridges to forest paths. SensiFit™ technology cradles the foot for a precise, secure fit, while the Quicklace™ system allows fast, one-pull adjustments. A Profeel Film protects the forefoot from sharp rocks and roots without compromising ground feel.
