Salomon Fellraiser Video - Outdoor Retailer 2013

Checkout this Runningshoes.com video on the Fall 2013 Salomon Fellraiser found at Outdoor Retailer 2013. The Fellraiser looks like the perfect option for trail runs and ultramarathons.

Salomon Fellraiser - 2013

Salomon will be launching the Fellraiser in 2013.  Taking inspiration from its ultra light mountain runner, the S-LAB Fellcross, the Fellraiser is lower to the ground and much more flexible than previous Salomon models. Trail runners will love the spike like traction from the non-marking Contragrip outsole and the lightweight and fast-drying upper. Not sure on the heel-to-toe drop on the Fellraiser yet, but injected EVA midsole and use of Salomon’s lightweight muscle should lend towards quick transition from mid-foot to toe-off.  Weight is approximately 8.2 OZ

Salomon XR Mission - 2013 Colors

Since its introduction in 2012, Salomon’s XR Mission has quickly become a go-to shoe for lightweight, neutral trail runners. The upper highlights Salomon’s sensiFlex system which allows for expanding and contraction of the forefoot along with a tough TPU cap for toe protection. The responsive midsole is great for Trail and Road and uses a two composition EVA deemed Salomon Light Weight Muscle. The XR Missions outsole is also designed to take you from road to trail. Contragrip rubber and multidirectional lugs allow for aggressive trail descents or pavement climbs.  Weighing 11.5 oz, XR Mission is a versatile Road/Trail running shoe with plenty of protection (Heel-to-Toe Drop: 20mm-9mm). Salomon will update the colors in Spring 2013. The Men’s 2013 XR Mission can be seen above and below:

Salomon S-Lab Sense - Color Update

With years of innovation and the guidance Ultra Marathoner and 2011 Western States Champion Killian Jornet, Salomon released the minimal S-Lab Sense in 2012. As Killian continues to dominate the Ultra distances, Salomon will be introducing a color update for Spring 2013. The technical aspects of the S-Lab Sense remain the same, weighing 7.4 oz and 4mm heel-to-toe drop. $180

Salomon XR Crossmax 2 - Spring 2013

After three strong years of trail performance, Salomon will be updating the XR Crossmax for 2013. The neutral XR Crossmax 2 offers trail junkies an updated outsole, toe box and midsole composition. A segmented EVA midsole increases flexibility for a quicker transition, while the OS Tendon technology gives runners stability and energy transfer. Overall outsole lug depths have been scaled down and Salomon utilizes duel-density Contragrip rubber. The XR Crossmax 2 offers a wider toe box then its predecessor and Salomon’s SensiFlex technology has been streamlined to reduce metatarsal irritation. This ideal training hybrid weighs 11.3 oz and has an 11 mm heel-to-toe drop (20mm-9mm). Look for the XR Crossmax in Spring 2013 for $140.
