The 9 essentials for practicing outdoor sports this winter

Any time of the year is ideal for practicing outdoor sports, you just have to be wise when choosing just what you need to adapt to the needs of nature in each season. The autumn-winter season is the most demanding in terms of weather conditions and you have to take even more into account the equipment you choose to live a 100% satisfactory experience.

Salomon, with 75 years of creating and designing outdoor equipment behind it, is the best option for both experts and beginners when it comes to going out into nature. These nine products will accompany you in your sports practice from the asphalt to the high mountains.

Trail running is a sports practice that allows us to feel totally alive in the middle of nature with no intermediary other than our physical resistance. However, it is essential in such unpredictable terrain to ensure certain guarantees for our footprint, such as exceptional grip and precise support. For this, the Thundercross will be our best road companion as it has aggressive 5 mm lugs to face any terrain, no matter how complicated, technical or simply unpleasant it may be. It combines Energy Foam for greater cushioning, SensiFit for optimal foot support and a Contragrip outsole for uncompromising grip.

Salomon's new track fleet combines high-performance technologies such as ADDIKT's exclusive Motion Tail to improve tail flexibility by 5%. They have a wooden core, double Ti construction and have been designed in France and produced in Europe. Salomon has discovered a way to reduce the environmental footprint of these skis by developing fully recycled ABS sidewalls. This is a completely new way of processing waste from Salomon's factory that is used to create new ABS 360° sidewalls.

Designed to advance foot support and performance by challenging traditional boot constructions, Salomon's Supra BOA 120 sets a new standard for perfect fit. Our ExoWrap® configuration combined with the BOA® Fit System offers a pinpoint fit that hugs the foot. You can adjust it whenever you want with a simple gesture and quickly.

Salomon's Driver Prime SIGMA™ Photo MIPS defines the lines between visor helmets and standard helmet and goggle sets. The seamlessly integrated SIGMA™ Photochromic magnetic visor (supplied with an additional lens) offers greater color contrast whatever the weather, while its premium fit and safety features keep you comfortable and safe all day long. .

DRX Bliss answers the call of runners who crave ample comfort, but need additional stability. A shoe with ample height and soft cushioning combined with Active Chassis™ that guides your energy and provides the support you need. Its sumptuous fit around the collar provides a secure, snug foothold for a comfortable, confident run.

Salomon's Sentry Prime combines urban essence with the best mask technology; you will always want to wear it. Prioritizing masterful vision, it comes with two color-amplifying SIGMA™ PHOTO and SIGMA™ magnetic lenses. It's super easy to pull one lens off, snap another on with a click, secure it with the clasp, and go as hard as you want.

The Elixir Mid GTX is a high-end mid-cut hiking shoe committed to long-distance comfort and soft, balanced cushioning that is comfortable yet tangible. It incorporates a waterproof membrane for demanding conditions and padded areas on the collar and tongue for greater foot wrapping comfort. A sneaker that makes no compromises and has it all, designed to take you far.

Salomon's Men's Elixir Hybrid Hooded Jacket is ready for all your favorite heart-pounding activities, like skiing and hiking. Advanced HeiQ XReflex™ technology and PrimaLoft® Cross Core™ insulation lock in air to deliver our lightest warmth where you need it most. Ideal for layering as you take on high mountain trails and powder-packed slopes.

The S/LAB ULTRA 10 vest offers long-distance comfort and easy access to hydration, and it also meets all the requirements of an ultra running vest: it has a design that reduces friction, a comfortable and stable fit, and storage solutions for all your essentials. Light and very efficient.
