The Salomon Supercross for women weigh in at 290g. I find them super lightweight and perfect for travelling. The ripstop fabric is perfect for trail shoes as it reinforces that ripping, abrasion, and tearing resistance. I was bowled over by the appearance of the Salomon Supercross 3 gtx; they are a really attractive shoe that doesn't have too much bulk. Salomon always boasts a fabulous outsole, it grips like teeth to the ground and is great on both wet and dry ground. The lugs with deep penetration offer superb grip on soft surfaces such as mud or loose dirt.

The Salomon Supercross 3 GTX is a versatile running shoe that can take you from the town to the trail. If you like to mix up your running, this lightweight shoe is just as at home in your local park as it is on a rugged off-road route. Salomon shoes are built to last using superior technology and materials, so worrying about their longevity is never an issue. Indeed, the Supercross 3 certainly looks and feels sturdy, well made, and durable.

I’ve pounded the trails in lashing rain and through muddy wet puddles and my feet have always stayed dry.The toe does have an extra layer of rubber for protection whilst t he ripstop durable mesh tongue prevents debris and small stones from entering the shoe. Breathability could be an issue in warmer months but so far I’ve had no issues. The Salomon Supercross 3 is a great competitor in the trail-running field, but it does come with some things that you may want to consider. These aren't great for mixed terrain so be mindful of that. Nothing is more uncomfortable than feeling the sweat gathering in your shoe and festering whilst you pound the ground! The first noticeable thing about the Supercross 3 is the commanding grip that uses distinct and comprehensive lugs that sink into the ground with confidence and reassurance. Flexibility and responsiveness are never affected by the grip, with plenty of push-off for those times when you need a helping hand. Although the Salomon shoe provides plenty of support and grip for trail runs, they are not mountaineering boots. With foot protection classed as light, what they lose in grip and ankle stability, they make up for with a lightweight and flexible feel, allowing you to move swiftly on the run.
