#Salomon wing pro 2 running shoes for women black dark pink series#

The black is a little more sticky, and the green is a little harder for added durability.

The Slab-Wings uses a single compound for the outsole, but the Wings Pro 2 uses two compounds.

The outsole pattern of the Wings Pro 2 is the same as the outsole for the Slab Wings. Salomon uses a series of Contra-grip rubber and trapezoidal lugs to give great coverage of this outsole. For the Wings Pro 2, Salomon is using just a heel chassis for added stability in support. Salomon removed this completely from the Slab-Wings. The older version of the XT Wings used a 3D Chassis that ran from the heel through the forefoot. The Wings Pro 2 comes in with a 10mm heel to toe offset, with 28mm in the heel and 18mm in the forefoot. This dual layer midsole keeps the stability, and also offers a nice forgiving forefoot. The older XT Wings, and the XA Pro 3d, were very firm and stable shoes, but also very harsh. This has radically changed the feel of this shoe in the best way possible. Salomon also added a newer dual layer midsole, with a firm under layer from heel to toe (blue in photos), and a softer layer for the forefoot (green in photos). The arch support in the Wings Pro 2 is much like the XA Pro 3D, and is more pronounced than the older XT Wings series. In comparison to the Slab-Wings, the Wings Pro 2 has a noticeable arch support where the Slab-Wings do not. The midsole is an area where Salomon made some of it’s biggest changes to the Wings Pro series. This is one of the most comfortable uppers I’ve ever worn for a Salomon shoe, it feels very similar to the Slab-Wings, with the only difference being that the Wings Pro 2 has a little more volume. From the midsole, the sensi-fit continues up to the anchor eyelets of the quick-lace system. The overlay starts at the midsole providing a rand around the base of the shoe. The upper on the Wings Pro 2 is a highly breathable mesh with a welded sensi-fit overlay. Speaking of, the toe-box is the biggest improvement over previous versions of this shoe, as Salomon has removed the solid rubber toecap and made the toe area a little wider. The Wings Pro 2 fit a lot like the S-Lab Wings, but with a little more space in the midfoot and toebox. The heel fits very well and is not as wide as the XA Pro 3D. The endo-fit makes for a nice a seam-free fit throughout the midfoot.

I probably could have gotten away with an 11.5 to be honest. I usually wear a 12.5 in Salomon shoes, but purchased a 12 in the Wings Pro 2.

Support Trail to Peak by purchasing the Wings Pro 2 on Amazon: You can find my review of the Slab-Wings here. You’ll see me refer to the Slab-Wings a lot for a point of comparison. **The Wings Pro 2 is nearly identical to the Slab-Wings, with the only differences coming in the midsole, and some of the materials used for the upper. This new Wings Pro 2 has a wider toe box, endo-fit (inner socklike liner), a welded sensi-fit overlay, and a slightly wider last, which makes for an all-around great feeling shoe. I never wore the past versions of the XT Wings series due to the tight toe box and narrow last. In years past, I’ve put quite a few miles on my Salmon XA Pro 3D, Sense Pro, S-Lab Wings, and Sense Mantra. It combines a lot of different features I’ve grown to love about Salomon trail running shoes. The upper is manufactured from waterproof split suede leather and features a protective rubber toe and heel-cap, gusseted tongue, heel strap, heel foam and features an optimized fit specifically designed for women.The Salomon Wings Pro 2 has proven to be one of the most promising shoes in my light hiking arsenal this year.
