Salomon Aero Glide 4
The 2026 update to Salomon's max-cushion road trainer keeps the tall energyFOAM stack and rockered geometry while trimming a little weight and refining the upper. It remains an easy-day and long-run shoe for runners who want protection over pop.
Reach for the Salomon Aero Glide 4 for everyday training miles, long runs and easy recovery days. A wide, stable base keeps it steady without stability hardware — a good pick if you're mostly neutral but like a planted feel. The tall, soft stack favors comfort over ground feel — great for high mileage and bigger runners, less so for racing snappiness.
