The Salomon S/Lab Phantasm CF, Salomon's fastest running shoe to date, is here. A statement of intent by the firm of Annecy that seeks to carve a niche in themost competitive segment of road running shoes and, for this, they bet on a technological framework of the highest level.
They land as a competition running shoe aimed at the fastest runners looking to reach very very lively rhythms over long distances. A flying shoe that incorporates the latest in Salomon technology to ensure propulsion, reactivity and lightness never seen before.
There is no doubt that Salomon wants to occupy the limelight, entering the segment of asphalt racing shoes, an entry that faces presenting one of the most cutting-edge technologies on the market.
The midsole features Salomon Energy Surge technology, a very light and elastic foam compound that boosts your stride and, in combination with Reverse Camber geometry, ensures faster and smoother transitions. A fluidity never seen before to propel the runner to beat their best times. It is in this area of the shoe where we note the presence of a carbon plate known as Energy Blade CF, manufactured through a unique process, which allows for added stiffness in certain areas of the shoe to promote faster propulsion.
The upper of these Salomon S/Lab Phantasm CF will feature the well-known Matryx technology, a high quality material that ensures permanent breathability and superior support. A very lightweight construction that allows for a perfect anatomical fit at racing speeds.
The Contragtrip outsole of this flying shoe is made of a highly wear-resistant material, combining the use of flat and wide lugs to generate better grip in both training and competition on asphalt surfaces.
This is undoubtedly one of the fastest shoes in the history of Salomon, if not the fastest. A flying shoe that incorporates the latest technology from the Annecy-based company, for propulsion, lightness and reactivity never seen before.
The rocker-type geometry applied by Salomon in combination with the carbon fiber plate and the Salomon Energy Surge foam will propel the runner to reach racing speeds. A model aimed at runners who already have a good running technique and are looking to compete in middle and long distance competitions. With an RRP of 200, a 9 mmdrop and a very light weight of 228 grams, we are almost sure that these Salomon S/Lab Phantasm CF will become one of the best flying shoes of this 2022 and if not, time to time!
