Salomon is no stranger to technical silhouettes and most recently, it has brought back the Snowclog shoes. This time around, it has been revived under the Sportstyle branch which delivers style-conscious approaches. The Snowclog is not a brand-new look, but it is different in some components, including the lower-top cut this time around.
The upper has a textile construction with mudguard sections. For support at the insoles, it features Ortholite and the most definitive change is seen at the base of the shoe where it boasts impressive traction. The silhouette is supported by a Contragrip sole unit. Additionally, the Snowclog is more sleek with a backless fitting for more accessible wearing and the fully breathable base is made with mesh paneling.
