Meet Your New Favourite Trail Companion: The Salomon S/LAB Ultra Glide

For the runners who zigzag across ridgelines, slide through singletrack switchbacks, and somehow always end up ankle-deep in something questionable… this one’s for you.

Trail runners, we get it. You want a shoe that can keep up with your ambitious routes, rocky climbs, and spontaneous detours – without chewing up your feet like yesterday’s race snacks. Enter: the Salomon S/LAB Ultra Glide – the elite-level trail shoe that proves you don’t have to choose between comfort and control.

Comfort That Goes the Distance

From the first step to your final stride, the Ultra Glide is built to feel like clouds dipped in science. Its maximal cushioning isn’t just about softness – it’s about sustained comfort over distance. This shoe adapts to your movement, meaning that weird foot fatigue you usually feel around kilometre 18? Yeah… it didn’t get the invite.

Oh, and that pressure-diffusing outsole? It spreads the impact like a pro masseuse spreads Tiger Balm – evenly, smoothly, and with serious skill.

“It feels like a recovery day... while running up a mountain.” – probably you, after your first run.

Stability Meets Agility

The Ultra Glide’s smart design offers a 6mm drop and a standard-width fit, giving you that sweet spot between control and flexibility. Whether you're gliding through jeep track, tackling rocky ridges, or navigating muddy meanders, the shoe keeps you stable, secure, and responsive.

Let’s not forget the 4mm lugs – deep enough to grip like your dog’s paws on tile, but not so deep they turn your shoes into mini grappling hooks on smooth surfaces. Think: versatility without compromise.

Lightweight, Not Light Duty

At just 290g, the Ultra Glide feels barely-there. But don’t let the weight fool you – this is a high-performance beast in disguise. You can crush climbs, bomb descents, and still feel like you’ve got spring left in your step when the finish line finally comes into view.

Who’s It For?

This isn’t a shoe for couch potatoes (unless they’re doing mobility work). The Ultra Glide is perfect for:

  • Trail runners hitting 2–3 runs a week

  • Mixed terrain lovers (dirt, gravel, roots, river crossings, you name it)

  • Runners training for ultras, marathons, or “just one more loop”

  • Anyone tired of sacrificing comfort for performance

Why We Love It

At Ultra 360, we’ve seen our fair share of trail shoes. Some promise the world and fall apart by week three. Others offer grip but forget your feet exist. The S/LAB Ultra Glide? It delivers on every mile – comfort, control, and community-approved.

So if you’re looking to go further, faster, and with fewer blisters – this is your sign.
