Salomon | Women’s Speedcross 6 Running Shoes – Blue Curacao

Advice for Trail Runners: The Salomon Women’s Speedcross 6 are one of the most iconic trail running shoes ever made. Renowned for their incredible grip and comfort.

Underfoot Feel

The midsole is made from a thick layer of EnergyCell™+ cushioning. This high-rebound compound should feel very energetic underfoot. 

Salomon’s Mud Contragrip® outsole is built to deliver incredible grip on loose, soft, and technical trail surfaces. Importantly, the 5 mm lugs are spaced in a way which reduces mud accumulation. As a result, the outsole should deliver great grip from the start of your run, all the way to the end. 

Upper Fit

The Salomon Speedcross Running Shoes’ Sensifit upper should feel supportive and secure. Salomon’s quickLACE™ system means that you can fasten the upper with a single pull. The excess material tucks away under a pocket on the tongue.

Made with a ripstop fabric, the upper should be very resistant to ripping and abrasion. The tight mesh also prevents debris from entering the upper material.

Ideal Run Type

The Salomon Women’s Speedcross 6 Running Shoes are best suited to muddy trail runs and steep slopes. The protective midsole should feel comfortable for long-distance runs.

We recommend minimising how much you use them on hard-packed ground. This is because you’ll wear away the tread.

Sizing Advice

Shoe size is a personal preference and everyone’s feet are different, but we want to ensure you avoid any pain or discomfort from bruised toenails, rubbing, blistering or pins and needles.

Your running shoes should have enough width to allow you to spread your toes and should have some space at the front (we recommend having a half to one thumb’s width of space from the end of your longest toe to the front of your running shoes).

This usually means that your running shoe will be at least a half size bigger than your regular shoe size though this can vary from brand to brand.
