Why ruin a good thing? And the Salomon Speedcross is a very, very good thing. Staying true to the roots of its predecessors, the Salomon Speedcross 6 is a machine engineered to power through terrain that would have lesser shoes slipping and sliding. Compared to the Speedcross 5, the 6 has a new upper that is lighter and more breathable and a revamped outsole for even more traction on wet ground and surfaces. Deep, aggressive lugs on the Contagrip Mud sole are grippy on mixed terrain and are designed to evacuate efficiently when the going gets wet. The upper uses Salomon's Sensifit construction, is lightweight, comfortable, and holds your foot in place. The midsole is made with EnergyCell+ material, a compound that cushions your footfalls while storing and releasing energy like a spring, launching you into your next stride.
SkyRun Fit Tip - We find the Speedcross 6 to be true to US sizes.
- Durable, comfortable, and breathable upper has been upgraded from the previous version.
- Contagrip Mud rubber compound is optimized for stickiness in wet conditions.
- Aggressive 5mm lugs quickly shd mud, so traction doesn't get compromised.
- EnergyCell+ midsole delivers cushion and rebound.
- Quicklace system is fast and secure.
