The Trail + SIDAS x Team Salomon insole is designed to meet the demands of ultra-distance races. Co-developed by Team Salomon trail running athletes and foot comfort specialists SIDAS, this collaboration has been meticulously designed to offer the perfect balance of non-slip surface, long-lasting comfort, lightness and durability.

The Trail + insole has a non-slip surface that keeps the feet in place, providing better precision, better stability and better support. This is achieved through a combination of high quality foams, an ultra-thin sandwich construction and a lightly adhesive material on both the foot contact area and the shoe contact area.

Finally, this trail running insole is also characterized by its lightness and durability. It is made up of a combination of high quality foams that are both ultra-thin and light yet extremely durable.

Our Race Ready pole is the Ultratrail FX.One Superlite. Alpenglow Sports trail runner and veteran Broken Arrow racer, Luke Nelson, used the Ultratrail FX.One Superlite while racing the Broken Arrow Triple Crown in 2023. Here's what he has to say:

"I originally didn't have the Superlite version of these poles until recently and it was a drastic change. I didn't realize dropping around 50g in weight would have an impact on how sore my arms and chest would get, but it was well worth it. The shark frame strap system is extremely helpful when hitting aid stations, you can easily disconnect from the pole and grab the items in your drop bag."
