The Salomon Exit Aero – Highly Breathable Multi-Sport Trainers

The Salomon Exit Aero builds on the already impressive range of multi-sport, multi-surface shoes produced by the leading French performance footwear manufacturer. Part of the Exit range, this second generation shoe offers the robustness for which the range is well known, and adds highly breathable mesh uppers to maximise airflow to keep the feet perfectly cool and comfortable. Ideal for the summer and warmer climates, the shoe promotes the exit of steam, aided by a highly absorbent moisture wicking lining for perfect foot comfort even on highly strenuous walks and hikes.

Salomon understands that the feet of men and women are different, requiring support and cushioning tailored to each gender. The womens Salomon Exit Aero has been constructed from a female last, designed to match the contours of women’s feet for an ultra snug and secure fit. Narrower in the heel and shorter in the toe than the mens Salomon Exit Aero it keeps the heel secure to prevent sliding and moulds perfectly around the foot for excellent support and long term comfort.

The Exit has been released in two models with the Aero’s partner, the Exit Peak, being great all weather shoes. However the Salomon Exit Aero has been designed to maximise breathability with a predominantly mesh upper. Whilst a great year round trainer, the design really comes into its own in the summer months, with the uppers maximising airflow to keep the feet perfectly cool and comfortable.  Whilst offering an ultra lightweight design to keep you fresh on your feet for longer, the shoes are robust with split suede and leather uppers, with strengthening fingers joining the laces with the protective mudguard for support and durability. For extra toe protection on difficult off road terrain, a robust synthetic toe bumper protects both foot and shoe, and a heel strap ensures the shoes retain their shape for a long lifespan.

Comfort is assured with a moulded EVA foam midsole running the length of the shoe, giving great shock absorption, with plenty of EVA heel foam to cushion even heavy heel strikes.  A die cut EVA sockliner adds a soft and spongy layer underfoot for a highly comfortable and smooth ride, even over highly uneven terrain.  

The materials used in the construction are quick drying, so that if you get caught out in a summer shower, your feet will quickly be returned to the comfort zone, and you need not worry about traction with excellent wet and dry grip provided by the famed Salomon Contragrip outsole, offering a great balance of stickiness for grip on the trail, with a hard wearing compound to give the maximum lifespan on abrasive surfaces.

Salomon are well known for their cool colour schemes and innovative nomenclature, with swamp, autobahn, and thyme to choose from, with 2011 being boosted with colours such as chamois, moss and. Whatever cool colour scheme you choose, the great looks, incredible fit and comfort offered in the Salomon Peak Aero makes it one of the best selling summer trainers for both men and women, and if you have yet to try Salomon on for size, this is one of the best shoes to get on your feet.
