Running shoes Salomon ULTRA GLIDE 3

The Salomon Ultra Glide 3 is a road-to-trail shoe built for daily training and ultra distances. It handles mixed terrain from tarmac to dirt-packed trails, gravel, and forest tracks, best suited for easy-paced runs and long efforts rather than speed work or technical scrambles. Runners looking for a forgiving, versatile trainer will appreciate the generous cushioning and stable platform.

The midsole features lightweight EVA-based energyFOAM in a 41mm stack with a 6mm drop, delivering soft, shock-absorbing comfort and reducing strain on the calves and Achilles. The wide base and bucket seat design provide stability despite the height. The engineered mesh upper uses sensiFIT and endoFIT technology with a quickLACE system, offering a roomy toebox that accommodates foot swelling on longer runs, though toe protection is minimal. The All-Terrain contaGRIP outsole with 4mm lugs and wavy relieveSPHERE geometry grips well on rocky paths, hard-packed dirt, and tarmac, but slips in mud. The widely spaced lugs shed debris effectively.

Weight is 285g in EU 42.5. Stack height is 41mm heel and 35mm forefoot with a 6mm drop.
