Salomon XA Pro 3D XCR Trail Running Shoe - Men's

slippery when wet

By Ranked #2058 - Men's Trail Run Shoes June 7, 2007

On my New England rocky/rootsy trails, I found the sole on these shoes to be so slippery as to be unusable in wet weather. Kinda defeats the purpose of a Gore-Tex shoe, huh? They've now been relegated to just wearing around town. Rubber compound? Tread configuration? Hard to say what the problem is. Inov-8 shoes (like the FlyRoc 310) have been far far superior.
