Best Alpine Trail Running Shoes: Salomon S-Lab XA
Trail running is a serious sport, and one that requires gear and skill all of its own. Take it high up into alpine territory, and that becomes truer than ever. Regular trail running shoes won’t deliver the traction, flexibility or coverage that those high-altitude conditions demand, and any trail runner heading to those high elevations will soon find themselves reaching for dedicate shoes that can handle the rugged terrain and moisture they’ll be sure to find up there. Our pick? The Salomon S-Lab XA Alpine.
