Salomon Spikecross 6 GTX Trail Running Shoe

Keep the miles going all winter long in the Salomon Spikecross 6 GTX Trail Running Shoe

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I have been running in the Salomon Spikecross 6 GTX Trail Running Shoe through a full winter season on trails that ranged from packed snow to icy singletrack to slushy road crossings, and the combination of tungsten spikes and Contagrip lugs made every surface feel manageable. The GORE-TEX bootie kept my feet completely dry through creek crossings and slushy sections that would have soaked through a standard trail shoe in the first mile, and the Quicklace system meant cold-morning starts with gloves on were never a fumbling ordeal."

Winter has a way of making trails that feel effortless in summer feel like an entirely different proposition, and the Salomon Spikecross 6 GTX Trail Running Shoe was built to close that gap. When snow blankets the singletrack and ice patches show up without warning, this shoe digs in and holds, letting you run with the same confidence that warmer months allow.

Salomon equipped the Spikecross 6 with tungsten spikes that bite into hardpack ice where standard lugs simply cannot find purchase, paired with 5mm Contagrip rubber multi-directional lugs that handle packed snow, slush, and muddy shoulder-season conditions with equal reliability. A GORE-TEX bootie membrane wraps the foot in breathable, waterproof protection that keeps cold water and slush outside where it belongs through creek crossings, snowmelt puddles, and sustained wet conditions. The responsive foam midsole absorbs impact and returns energy through a 10mm drop geometry that takes strain off the calves and Achilles on long winter efforts, and the Quicklace closure cinches down in seconds for a secure fit even with cold hands or gloves on. At 12 ounces the Spikecross 6 carries enough protection and grip for serious winter trail running without feeling like a boot, delivering the shoe-like feel and lively ride that keeps training going long after the first snowfall.
