Salomon Ultra Glide 4 — Women's Trail Running Shoe

Engineered mesh upper — varied weave for a breathable, durable fit that stays cooler on long, hot efforts

optiFOAM™ midsole — tall, ultra-plush EVA cushioning for maximum comfort over distance

relieveSPHERE™ + All-Terrain contaGRIP® outsole — wavy geometry that diffuses pressure, paired with 4mm lugs for grip on wet, dry, hard, or loose surfaces

Waterproofing — none; this version isn't offered in Gore-Tex, so expect wet feet in puddles, creek crossings, or heavy dew

endoFit™ sleeve + quickLACE™ — one-pull tightening with a secure, precise midfoot hold

6mm drop — 41mm heel / 35mm forefoot stack, suited to runners who want max cushioning with a smooth, rockered ride

Weight — approx. 252 g per shoe (women's size 7), light for a max-cushion shoe

Regular width — true to size with a touch more toe box room than Salomon's narrower race lasts; a wide option is also available for those who need it

Low-cut ankle collar — plush, low-profile collar that doesn't restrict ankle mobility on rolling trail

Textile inlay sole — removable, so there's room for an aftermarket insole if you want extra arch support

Best for: trail runners and hikers who want maximum cushioning for long days out — think an easy long run on the KVR trail or an all-day hike up to Myra Canyon. Available in women's sizes 5–11, with regular and wide width options.

Not sure which size or fit is right for you? Our team at Fresh Air will help you find the right footwear fit in-store at both Kelowna locations. Stop by to work with one of our experienced staff members, or book online / call 250-763-3425.

Q: Are these shoes true to size?
A: Yes — the Ultra Glide 4 runs true to size in length, with a bit more room through the toe box than Salomon's narrower models. It comes in both regular and wide widths, so if you have a wider or higher-volume foot, ask our staff about the wide option in-store.

Q: Are the Ultra Glide 4 waterproof / suitable for wet Okanagan trails?
A: No — the Ultra Glide 4 isn't offered in a waterproof version this generation, so your feet will get wet quickly in puddles, creek crossings, or heavy spring dew. If waterproofing is a priority for wet Okanagan mud season, our staff can point you to a comparable Gore-Tex option.

Q: Can I try the Ultra Glide 4 on before buying at Fresh Air Kelowna?
A: Yes — come into either Kelowna location and our staff will assess your gait and fit, and help you choose between sizes or similar models. No appointment needed, though calling ahead during peak season (spring and fall) is a good idea.
