Salomon Men's Outbound Prism GTX Shoes

Product Information

Last but not least, the lugs, which are 5 mm in depth, present 27 different geometries to finish off the surface-gripping formula. No mud can ever hinder your pace since the lugs are well-spaced enough to let the mud come off on its own. These Salomon sneakers are also stitch-free, light, and slim fit, giving it a snug-like feel that complements its overall aesthetics. Stability-wise, several features accommodate tread and steadiness, namely, the outsole’s relatively wide base (wide in comparison to its fit). Combined with the 5 mm lugs, both elements guarantee smoothe hiking on whatever trail you choose. Salomon is known for their in-house Contagrip rubber, but the shoes above still vary widely based on lug depth and spacing and the type of compound used. Their All Terrain compound is used for the majority of their designs and focuses on maximizing traction over a wide variety of surfaces. The other variation, called Mug Contagrip, is built specifically for biting into softer and looser terrain like mud (although the lug design plays a huge role, which we cover below). Models that utilize the Mud compound include the X Ultra 3 and Odyssey 1 Advanced.

Road Runner-Like Cushion for High Mileage

All-day comfort: We’ve chosen soft, breathable fabrics and added a pre-shaped tongue that hugs your foot to keep you comfortable all day long. The expression light as a feather comes to mind when someone mentions the Salomon Outline GTX. Weighing 350 g for the men’s version and 290 g for the women’s, they help you increase speed and don't make your legs feel like they're lugging something around – as can sometimes be the case with heavy walking boots. Water Repellent: A special treatment is applied to provide extra protection, ensuring that the fabric does not absorb water during light rain and showers. The lightest shoe in Salomon’s hiking lineup is the 1-pound-4.8-ounce Outbound Prism GTX, and it also happens to be the most everyday-friendly too. With a more streamlined and minimalist look and design than most of the models above, the Outbound combines soft, breathable fabrics and a pre-shaped tongue for comfort with Salomon’s All Terrain Contagrip outsole for off-pavement traction and a Gore-Tex membrane for sealing out moisture. All told, it's a really stylish and modern-looking shoe with enough of a technical slant for light day hiking. In addition, the outsole of these Salomon trekking shoes is a mixture of multiple ingredients. The recipe provides the necessary compounds for diverse surfaces.

Anti-debris Mesh: Tight mesh that prevents debris from being trapped between your foot and the footbed.Waterproof tops water resistance and water repellency. However, just like bulletproof vests cannot protect against certain types of bullets, the GORE-TEX outline is unable to keep water from seeping through in certain conditions. One of the first days I wore the shoes on our trip, it was pouring rain and, unfortunately, my feet didn't stay entirely dry.

Hagyd, hogy a Salomon OUTBOUND PRISM GTX cipő inspiráljon, és új helyekre vezessen! Ez a sokoldalú outdoor cipő könnyedén alkalmazkodik, függetlenül attól, hogy a városban vagy a hegyekben viseled. Puha és légáteresztő hálós anyagból készült, amit vízálló GORE-TEX membránnal láttak el, és modern megjelenéssel diszponál. Vágj neki a kalandnak!What we don’t: Design is a little dated; we'd opt for the Quest for more technical terrain or heavy loads. The only thing I can't really comment on, is how water-resistent they are. My feet got wet wearing them once, but asit was raining really hard and I was wearing shorts, it might just be that the rain seeped in from above and not through the fabric. I'll update this post if I ever happen to end up in a downpour wearing them again. I hope that won't be too soon :-) These Salomon trainers are equipped with a High Traction Contagrip outsole. In case you're not familiar with the design, it leverages three factors to ensure the best grip possible: Density, Compound, and Geometry.
