Like all Salomon sports equipment, the Speedcross 3 features a high level of comfort. The shape of the shoe adjusts to the shape of your foot, preventing the foot from slipping or dangling, which allows you to walk and run for quite a long time. The redesigned outsole delivers superior traction even on slippery surfaces, challenging surfaces, and small rocks, meaning no environment will prevent you from reaching the speed you need. It will not be superfluous to mention the light weight and shock absorption qualities. Interestingly, this model has two modifications: for winter and for warmer seasons.
Model characteristics
The Salomon Speedcross 3 is lined with breathable textiles that combine almost weightless lightness with amazing durability. The fabric is also waterproof. A special dirt-resistant mesh fabric prevents dirt, sand, road dust, grass and small stones from entering the shoe.
Another equally important part of the sneaker - the sole - is made using the unique Mud & Snow non-marking Contagrip® technology. Already from its name it is clear that it should cope well with mud and snow, and it really is: a special rubber is involved in the production of the outsole, which retains its unique properties under any temperature and weather conditions, and also does not leave marks in the room. These qualities are achieved by applying a special protective layer to the sole.
The entire shoe can literally adapt to its owner, and this is not some kind of science fiction. The fact is that the upper surface of each pair of sneakers is equipped with the Sensifit system, which fixes the position of the foot, preventing it from sliding and rubbing. And the plastic EVA cup holds the heel firmly.
The insoles are manufactured using OrthoLite tape in combination with ethyl vinyl acetate, an innovative material located in the heel area. The OrthoLite technology insole offers a number of benefits:
1. High absorbency keeps feet dry;
2. Maintaining the temperature regime;
3. Excellent orthopedic and shock absorption properties;
4. Retention of qualities for a long time.
Even laces have their own system. The Quick Lace technology, or "quick laces", speaks for itself: elastic laces automatically adjust and tighten in one motion. At the same time, they never hang out, because they can be stowed away in a small pocket on the tongue of the shoe.
For all its outstanding characteristics, the Salomon SpeedCross 3 model does not require complex maintenance: they can be wiped with a damp cloth, machine wash at 40 degrees is permissible.
