![]() ![]() Oh yeah, and they take a long time to dry when soaked through. Overall a nice agile shoe that works well for long, short, easy and technical runs, but needs a bit more underfoot protection to be perfect. Great ground feel and traction with just enough cushion but really needs a rockplate for some of our sharp, shale-covered trails in the Fingerlakes area. It points the wrong way and is difficult to use unlike the now discontinued Ultra Pros. ![]() Not a huge fan of the lacing system, particularly the lace "garage". Has nice locked-down feel without causing pain across the top of my foot like some shoes do. I don't like the Salomon laces they don't hold if you tighten them.Ĭomments: Good shoe with nice fit for my skinny, bony ankles. I kinda like them for walking or wearing to work but after 3 runs I doubt I'll run in them again. They're pretty good as shoes but they're not much for running, very limited cushioning, and a long way from the excellent trail running shoe that also works well on transition or hard surfaces. For a hybrid trainer, this is a perfect weighted shoe for everyday use.Comments: These shoes get a lot of great reviews online for trail running but I don't see it. Whether it was a rainy day on pavement, icy sidewalks, or a mix while running on a hilly trail, the Ride Sense 2 allowed for confidence at a variety of paces. “Salomon brings the best features with their lace locking system, seamless fit, and a gritty bottom that doesn’t feel over-prominent on the roads but creates that insurance you expect from a focused trail shoe. “Even on road surfaces, the lugs of the sole were able to find every imperfection of the road and use it to propel forward.” Wear Tester FeedbackĪrch: High | Gait: Neutral | Footstrike: Midfoot “The lugs performed through any terrain: snow, ice, mud, loose gravel, and compact gravel without the feeling that I would need to bring a secondary shoe to tackle the various conditions,” said a wear tester. The lugs provide traction, and are spaced out enough to not accumulate dirt or mud. The outsole is made of Salomon’s ContaGrip rubber that’s made to last and perform well on any type of surface: wet, dry, hard, or loose. As one runner put it, “This shoe is very well-rounded-rugged enough for rocky trails, but still comfortable on roads.” Our wear testers enjoyed the Sense Ride 2’s overall ride on any type of terrain. And unlike regular laces, they’ll never loosen or come untied, so you can log your miles worry-free. Then you just tuck the slack end of the laces into a small pouch on the shoe’s tongue. Like all of the brand’s shoes, the Sense Ride 2 features Salomon’s signature lacing system they call Quicklace-instead of regular laces that you tie, there’s a tough Kevlar drawstring that you just have to tighten or loosen using an adjustable cinch. ![]() The trainers are stable and have reliable traction, allowing you to keep going for miles and miles on the trails, all while being super lightweight. There’s no question that Salomon’s Sense Ride 2 was designed with the great outdoors in mind they’re ideal for both rugged, technical trails, well-groomed paths, and even some light pounding on the road.
