The best Salomon winter sneakers for running
Favorite was, is and will be SPEEDCROSS, no matter what modification. As soon as they entered the market, they immediately became the love of "runners around the world."
They have a powerful protector, and the availability of models with a membrane ClimShield and GoreTex provide high water resistance. The best price / quality ratio.
If you prefer extreme jogging through forests, regular jogging in a park or at a stadium, then you need to look closely SENSE.
Provide your feet with maximum shock absorption and stability while running, and their lightness will not fatigue. Their advantage over regular sprint shoes is that they retain heat at low temperatures and protect them from getting wet.
HA - everything here is aimed at protection and strength. Ideal for mountain tourism. Their strength will not let you down on long journeys, and the fixation of the foot will protect against unwanted dislocations and sprains.
Reviews about sneakers Solomon
This is the second cross-country shoe I bought, arrived two weeks ago. SpeedCross 3, without membrane (if you are going to run in winter buy with ClimShield or GoreTex membrane). In comparison with the previous ones, they showed themselves very well. Most of all I liked the afigenian tenacity with the ground and a pleasant bonus was the quick lacing, although at first I had to get used to it.
Paul
I started running in the spring. With the onset of the autumn cold, I thought that I would not be able to continue my workouts in winter, and I did not want to buy a subscription in the gym, only because of the treadmill, that running in the fresh air is much more pleasant. After a careful selection, I settled on Wings Flyte 2 GTX. The first run in them was at a temperature of 5 degrees. My feet were completely frost-free, and I was wearing regular running socks. The only drawback, perhaps, will be the tread in it, you cannot run on the asphalt - it will quickly wear off. But they were bought for running on snowy paths.
Evgeniya
Acquired XA PRO 3D GTX black for everyday wear. Such a choice was that the work is connected with delivery. And these sneakers have three parameters that are important to me: heat retention, stability (which is important in winter) and do not get wet.
Konstya
I have been running cross-country for 5 years. As soon as my SC 3s were demolished, I immediately ordered SC 4. This is the top among SpeedCrooss, but still the price bites, so I recommend buying SC They are practically not inferior to SC 4, but time-tested and today they can be grabbed by the action.
Ilya
Based on a small budget, I bought SPEEDTRAK. For their low price, they showed themselves very well. Firstly, their weight is only 240g, and secondly, with such a low weight, cross-country ability and tenacity surprised me. Recommended if you are just starting your trail running journey.
