Salomon

Speedcross 6 Wide Trail Running Shoe - Men's

Perfect Fit

Now that Salomon offers wide shoes, for us flat footers, an absolutely great fit for my Spartan Races.

Thoughts After 1 Year

I've owned various Salomon trail running shoes over the past 9 years and this was my first time buying the wide version of a show. Holy smokes, it makes a huge difference (in a good way) in how my fat foot fits into the shoe. Bought my first pair of these Speedcross 6 wide back in March 2023. Over that time, I've gotten in about 3-5 miles every day on the trail. The only things I've had to replace during that time are the shoelaces once and the insoles once (both due to normal wear and tear). Other than that, the shoe has held up amazingly well. I've worn down the tread enough to retire this pair, and I'm getting ready to purchase a new pair of the exact same shoe. I've been so happy with them that I'll continue to purchase this exact style until they discontinue them.

3rd pair great as ever

This is the 3rd pair of speedcross 6 shoes that I have bought and they are great. They have great grip in mud and sand, easy to lace-up and are quite light.

Perpetually seeking adequately wide footwear and this fits the bill. Would buy again.

Very pleased!

I need a wide fit and therefore because it’s nearer 1E than 2E, I ordered half a size larger than normal. I’m please to say this has worked out ok and they’re very comfortable. I think that’s helped by the softness of the upper. However, I would have preferred They’re very light and I’m surprised that I like the lacing arrangement, as I had my doubts. However, I would have preferred a better, more secure place to stow the loop.

Great shoe for all terrain

I bought an extra pair to make sure I have one on hand for race day.

SC6 Wide after 640K

After having several pairs of Solomon trail shoes over the years this is my first pair of Speedcross. Since I am a mid-foot striker, I did not try them before because of the high drop (10mm). Anyways, I barley noticed the drop the first time I ran in them. I think it is part of its unique design. I run most of the time in trails by the river avoiding as much as possible hard surfaces (tarmac/pavement/concrete) and participate in 2-3 races a year of 25K in average. These shoes have a superb grip, especially on soft/muddy terrain and the upper close knit keeps debris away. The WIDE fit is also a plus for me because I found the regular fit a little bit too narrow. As for quality, it is great. A little over 640 kilometres (400 miles) and except for a bit of mud, the shoes look like new including the 5mm lugs. No issues at all. My only comment (wish) for Salomon would be to have a L&W (low and wide) version of these shoes for mid-foot strikers. I mean, if you could reduce the heel stack to 24 or 26mm keeping the forefoot stack as is on 20mm, that would be great (4-6 mm drop) for a firm, low to the ground ride. If you are looking for a softer, more cushioned ride, Salomon has several models designed for Ultra marathons. Back to the SC6, I find them very comfortable in "short" distances, especially when the weather is cool and the terrain is soft (spring and autumn up here, and even in winter time).

The Wide version of this shoe ROCKS!

I've put it through the wringer

Size Bought:

11 1/2 widw

I've had Solomons in the past, but being able to get this shoe in wide makes it SO much more comfortable. If you're looking for a hiking or trail running shoe with great grip when it gets sloppy, this is your shoe.

Exceptional

They never disapoint. Been using the Salomon Spreedcross for years now.

Very comfortable shoe

This shoe is very comfortable and durable. I don’t normally need wide shoes but these run narrow so I buy the wide. Wish they made the wide in more colors, currently it’s only grey or black!
