This waterproof Salomon shoe is built on the same chassis as last years successful XT Wings. It has a moderate amount of medial support making it a good running shoe for the mild to moderate overpronator. The shoe is a few ounces heavier than other running shoes, but once the Gore-Tex and stable shoe construction is accounted for the shoe is light. The XT Wings GTX is great for running in all conditions and can even double as an extremely light hiking boot for those who count grams. Overall it is a great option for a go anywhere, do anything shoe.
Best Fit in Running Shoes
Whether you are training for your tenth marathon or just taking a jog around the block, each stride a runner takes can cause quite an impact on the body. Specifically on our feet. It's crucial to have the proper support and cushion in order to reduce fatigue and prevent running injuries. The combination of proper running technique, correct running shoes, and Surefoot Orthotics will provide the necessary support and cushion that our feet need.
Maximum Comfort
Ultimately, runners and walkers need to experience comfort to properly enjoy their sport. Surefoot Orthotics provide a mirror image of the underside of your foot in the strongest position for running. It is this mirror image that creates a more enjoyable running experience since the orthotic is supporting all of the ligaments, tendons, bones, and muscles in your foot. Surefoot Orthotics can be milled from several different densities and various top sheets. Different combinations of these materials can be used together according to your unique running needs.
Perfect Your Stride
Running shoes are designed to propel you from one step to the next. Unfortunately, the mechanics of our feet do not allow this to happen as efficiently as we would like. With each stride, the foot collapses to the inside resulting in fatigue and a longer gait cycle. Surefoot Orthotics support our feet and allow them to move through the gait cycle quicker. As we propel from one step to the other, the Surefoot Orthotic allows our stride to become more efficient. And as you may know, greater efficiency yields faster running times and more energy throughout your run.
