Salomon Supercross 3 GTX Trail Running Shoe REVIEW - WalkJogRun

I’ve never tested a pair of the more technical Speedcross, but the wider fit of the Supercross make them incredibly comfortable. My feet literally fit like a glove. Super cosy and my feet feel completely supported at all times. How can this be a running shoe if it's not comfortable? Don't worry; this Salomon trail running shoe provides superior comfort with an Ortholite insole, which is super comfortable, hygienic, and allows for fresher feet for longer. However, this Ortholite insole can be thinner than EVA foam midsoles, potentially decreasing the comfort for super long hikes.Salomon is renowned for producing shoes that have excellent outsoles, and the Supercross 3 fall right into that category. The shoe has a Contagrip outsole that combines an aggressive lug pattern with excellent durability. It's a more comfortable ride for your foot which gives you that better feeling with every stride, especially on trail runs that are harsher on your feet. The Salomon Supercross 3 is a great competitor in the trail-running field, but it does come with some things that you may want to consider. These aren't great for mixed terrain so be mindful of that. However, Salomon does recommend this shoe is for occasional use, which usually means once or twice a week. This fact suggests the Supercross 3 is not as durable as some of Salomon's other ranges.

The Salomon Supercross for women weigh in at 290g. I find them super lightweight and perfect for travelling. The Supercross 3 GTX has a Contragrip rubber outsole, giving you maximum traction on mixed terrain. The aggressive chevron lug pattern offers multi-directional grip, which is perfect for softer ground and surfaces with loose dirt. The ripstop fabric is perfect for trail shoes as it reinforces that ripping, abrasion, and tearing resistance.

Conclusion

Deep lugs give more grip on slippy surfaces. The Salomon Supercross GTX W feature super aggressive lugs at 6mm deep and are widely spaced apart. The chevron shaped lugs give multi-directional grip – crucial for trail running. I was bowled over by the appearance of the Salomon Supercross 3 gtx; they are a really attractive shoe that doesn't have too much bulk. With their high heel counter and a large 10mm drop, we don't feel these shoes are the most stable, especially when bombing downhill, as we are here in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado. That didn't stop us from putting them to the test, but we think they could do with a little bit less under the heel. The Salomon Supercross 3 GTX is a versatile running shoe that can take you from the town to the trail. If you like to mix up your running, this lightweight shoe is just as at home in your local park as it is on a rugged off-road route.
