Re-Create Product
Review
Salomon Speed Cross 2
Having been a Salomon
Speed Cross user over the last 18 months and trialled a lot of other trail/fell
trainers over the years I have to admit this trainer has been one I have stuck
with and would totally recommend for Re-Create Boot Camp!
As well as being
super light weight, the shoe is well cushioned and very responsive to most
things thrown at it such as sharp turns, varying gradients, mud, grass, soil
and rock/rubble terrain. The rubber
studded sole holds well and the true to fit sizes hold the foot/ankle tight and
secure over uneven & wet terrain.
There are also rubber
studded toe caps that are perfect for holding the feet in position during plank
holds etc on wet grass where other trainers will easily slip.
I was particularly
impressed with the locking system of the laces.
No more retying laces when they come undone! The user simply pulls the
laces tight and they lock up with the plastic locking device that tucks away
nicely behind the tongue.
I found the shoe to
remain comfortable when wet through during the Mud Runner 10km event, I didn’t experience
any blisters or hotspots. I have put
this shoe through fells, aggressive trails, boot camp style fitness, light
trails such as Delamere Forest, peat terrain, every climate/element &
season thinkable and they have lived up to the task and done me proud and
continue to do so.
An all round comfortable
& durable trainer that is worth the
investment if you are looking to make Re-Create Boot Camp a regular part of
your life style with a range of fantastic colours to suit male and females.
Boot Campers would be
looking at an investment of £70 upwards for the Speed Cross range of Salomon
Trainer.
