Technical features: cushioning, outsole, and protection

Responsive cushioning and stability

The midsole provides responsive cushioning designed to maintain momentum across changing terrain. You feel the energy return with every stride, along with the stability demanded by technical trails.

Multi-density outsole for grip on mud and rock

The outsole of the Salomon XT-Whisper Fairy Tale Black is multi-density, with lugs designed for powerful traction on mud, rock, and roots. This means fewer slips and more control on steep descents.

Protection and durability

The chassis and toe box are designed to protect against impacts without adding unnecessary weight. Ideal for routes with loose stones and rugged terrain.

Comfort and fit for long distances

The breathable upper keeps your feet ventilated on long outings, while the snug fit supports your foot without restricting movement. Note: if you prefer some room in the toe box for ultra-distance runs, try them on with your trail socks.

The combination of support and flexibility makes these shoes suitable for both fast training sessions and long races.

Style and versatility: from trail to city

The Fairy Tale Black color gives them an elegant finish that doesn't go unnoticed. Perfect for those who mix mountain trails with an urban touch: they work with trail leggings or a casual streetwear look.

How to use and care for your trail shoes

To extend the life of the Salomon XT-Whisper Fairy Tale Black, clean them with a soft brush after muddy outings and let them air-dry away from radiators. Avoid machine washing them to preserve the structure and outsole.

Use specific insoles if you need extra support or a better fit, and check the lugs regularly to maintain optimal grip.
