To break through the pack and fly over the asphalt. This is how the fifth version of the Race by Salming Running has been conceived. A saga of flying shoes that has been seen a lot on the feet of triathletes, and its low profile -presents a drop of 5 millimeters, almost flat- and its ultralightness -barely reaches 185 grams in men's size 8 UK- position it in an ideal model for competition. In addition, the Salming Race 5 offers guarantees when facing both short distance races and long distance races (including marathons).
With these characteristics, the Salming Race 5 is included in the specific catalog of shoes known as natural running, which means that the runner needs to have as a differential point a good running technique for a better adaptation and performance of the model.
In addition to including a reactive and fast midsole, thanks to the exclusive RunLite compound, the Salming Running Race 5 also brings with it a carbon fiber torsion efficiency unit. To better understand each other, the Salming Race 5 is designed so that the runner is able to get the most out of its biomechanical structure.
Thanks to its great flexibility, the Salming Race 5 has a rather minimalist upper, without great complications, to provide a softer feel, and at the same time a more adaptable fit, as if it were a sock. Not to mention its optimal breathability.
In the heel cup. It presents a specific design, with the idea of adding as little weight as possible, and thus favoring a more adaptable fit to the foot.
Exclusive torsion system that ensures that the model is flexible at the right points, and thus stimulates the movements of the foot to be more natural in all directions, both towards the front and towards the side. Thus, the Salming Race 5 has been designed with additional stability, which allows for greater flexibility.
In the midsole. The RunLite compound consists of the inclusion of a more advanced, injection-molded, high-abrasion EVA rubber. The result is a lightweight, reactive and dynamic response from the first stride.
By incorporating Salming Running 's standard 5 drop, the Race 5 model allows you to enjoy a more natural, more natural posture for every kilometer of the race. This inclination is the one used in the track, long distance, speed and competition versions.
Thanks to this torsion efficiency unit, the Salming Race 5 ensures greater firmness, allowing you to enjoy optimal response, and without abusing an excessive number of supports. In addition, this resource is strategically placed in the shoe for maximum running efficiency.
