Salomon Ultra Glide 3 Men's Trail Running Shoes are built for endurance-minded runners who crave plush cushioning without sacrificing agility on mixed terrain. This model pairs an ultra-soft ride with a proactive design that helps you stay in the moment, mile after mile.
Experience a ride that feels effortless from the first step to the last. The energyFOAM midsole delivers light, responsive cushioning that absorbs repeated impact on uneven trails. The outsole geometry, combined with 4mm lug depth, diffuses underfoot pressure with Relieve Sphere technology, reducing fatigue and encouraging a consistent, confident stride across long distances.
All Terrain Contagrip® anchors your grip on wet, dry, hard, or loose surfaces. The 4mm lugs bite into trails with stability, while the rugged rubber compounds stand up to miles of adventure. Whether you’re carving switchbacks, bombing descents, or negotiating roots and rocks, you’ll feel secure and in control under diverse conditions.
Don’t let weight slow you down. Weighing in at approximately 285 g per shoe, the Ultra Glide 3 blends lightweight performance with rugged durability. The upper uses Engineered Mesh—designed with variable weave for targeted support and breathability—plus an upper construction with an internal EndoFit™ sleeve that hugs the foot for a precise, secure fit. The Quicklace™ system provides a one-pull tightening experience for quick on-and-off transitions, especially handy during long days on the trail.
The Ultra Glide 3 is best suited for mixed-terrain running, long training weeks, and runners who log 4+ sessions weekly. Its maximal cushioning and resilient outsole soak up repeated impacts on uneven terrain, letting you stay strong through back-to-back runs. The combination of plush comfort and secure fit minimizes hotspots and helps you maintain form when fatigue sets in. It’s equally capable on damp fire roads, rocky singletrack, and damp forest floors, giving you confidence when conditions shift mid-run.
Rinse off dirt after muddy sessions and air-dry away from direct heat to preserve the outsole geometry and mesh integrity. Periodically check the Quicklace system and replace worn laces if needed to maintain a snug fit and continued confidence on the trail.
With the Salomon Ultra Glide 3, you don’t just run—you glide toward your personal nirvana on every mile. Ultra-plush cushioning, confident traction, and a lightweight, breathable upper combine to deliver a trail shoe that feels effortless over long distances and changing terrain.
