The Salomon Cross Pro is a men’s trail running shoe built for muddy, competitive routes. As part of Salomon’s race category, it’s designed with a narrow last and non-waterproof construction, aimed at runners who value speed and traction over the heaviest waterproof protection.
Weighing in at just 290 grams, the Cross Pro keeps your stride light when the ground turns sticky. Its mud-specific outsole delivers confident grip in soft conditions, and the snug, narrow fit helps lock your foot in place on technical descents and climbs.
With an 8 mm heel drop, these shoes strike a balance between cushioning under the heel and a responsive forefoot feel. The lower drop encourages a more natural footstrike, while still providing enough padding for comfort on longer race efforts. Because they’re non-waterproof, they offer enhanced breathability but perform best in dry or mildly damp conditions.
