Salomon GORE-TEX

Salomon GORE-TEX footwear for wet Irish ground

Irish weather makes waterproofing one of the features that matters most. Salomon's GORE-TEX footwear seals out rain, bog and puddles while still letting feet breathe, so you stay dry and comfortable whether you are running a soft trail, walking a hill path or hiking a long route with a pack. The range spans trail shoes, walking shoes and hiking boots, in men's and women's fits.

Contagrip outsoles grip wet ground

Dry feet only help if you stay upright, and that is where Salomon's Contagrip outsoles come in. The lugs bite into mud, wet grass and greasy rock, holding the line on slippery climbs and descents where footing is least certain. Paired with the waterproof upper, they let you take on soaked trails and hill paths with confidence.

Trail running built for the wet

For runners, the Speedcross 6 GORE-TEX is the wet-weather choice, with deep, aggressive lugs and a sealed upper for soft, saturated Irish trails. It keeps feet dry through bog, puddles and long grass while gripping the kind of ground that defeats a road shoe. When the forecast turns, it is the trail shoe to reach for.

Hiking shoes and boots for long days

For walking and hiking, the X Ultra 5 GORE-TEX gives waterproof protection in a light, low-cut shoe, while the X Ultra 5 Mid, Quest 5 and Elixir Activ Mid step up to mid-cut boots with more ankle support. From an afternoon on the hill to a multi-day route with a pack, there is a GORE-TEX model built for the distance and the load.

Men's and women's fits across the range

The GORE-TEX range runs across men's and women's fits, from low-cut trail and walking shoes to supportive mid boots. That makes it easy to match the right waterproof shoe to your foot and your kind of day, whether you run, walk or hike. Every pair carries the same waterproof build for changing Irish conditions.
