Salomon Ultra Glide 4 review: One of the best cushioned all-mountain trail shoes right now

Описание: Salomon Ultra Glide 4 Review 2026: Max-Cushion Trail Shoe with Total Control (Worth $160?)

Max-cushion trail shoes often trade control for comfort on technical terrain — but the Salomon Ultra Glide 4 crushes both.

This all-mountain beast is protective, responsive, and fits like a glove, making it a top contender for ultras, mixed trails, or everyday training in 2026.

With a 6mm drop, 41mm heel stack, OptiFoam midsole, and Relief Sphere tech for impact diffusion, it handles rocks, roots, mud, and hardpack without instability. The SensiFit upper with Quicklace delivers secure lockdown, average breathability, and toe wiggle room for swelling or power on climbs. It's lighter than most in its class (9.7oz) and directly rivals the Saucony Xodus Ultra 4 for versatility and value — both excel at long distances but keep you nimble.

If you're building for your first ultra or need a do-it-all shoe that goes fast when pushed, this $160 pick is a no-brainer. I compare it to competitors and share why it's my early 2026 favorite.
