The name might give you a bit of a hint - but let’s dive into the nitty-gritty tech-talk anyway, because Salomon has gone all out with their iconic XA Pro 3D v8 GTX Shoe.

Firslty, Contagrip MA has been built into the outsole for durability and optimal performance on wet, dry, hard or crumbly terrain. A low-profile 3D Advanced Chassis between the outsole and midsole provide unparalleled confidence and motion control too, including stability, responsiveness, and energy management. Plus, SensiFit kicks in to cradle your foot from the midsole right through to the laces. Finally, Salomon top off the entire sole-system with a moulded OrthoLite insole - so you'll feel like you’re walking on a cloud.

With the trusty finishing touch of a fully waterproof GORE-TEX membrane, the XA Pro 3D v8 GTX Shoe from Salomon will have you loyal for life.
