I got a pair of Ultra Glide 1 and have been a nice change to the usual feeling after using Sense Ride since its first iteration. In terms of this current Glide Max Tr I think it can accomodate to those people looking for extra comfort and taking some road to trail too while using the conventional laces. I like that Salomon give this option to the people. Ultra Glide and Glide Max they can both live together :)
I got 2 pairs of the s lab pulsar sg for under 80 each. Same weight as my vaporflys and still pretty cushioned. Great for fkt, tempo, or just slow runs. Highly recommend trying it out.
I'm pretty sure that the protective tape along the bottom of the upper of many trail shoes is more for keeping out dirt, grit and sand rather than water.
I'm trying to figure out how the Glide Max TR compares to the Ultra Glide. The UG has been my go to for 50mi runs on trails, so wondering when/why I would move over to the Glide Max TR. Any insights?
ASICS Trabuco Max 2 vs Salomon Glide Max TR? Seem to be going after the same trail type and distance, what are your thoughts? Have a great weekend everyone…and it’s great to see Ryan with Kofuzi.
You are reviewing a lot of shoes, but I would like to know which ones you personally use. Maybe you could make a tierlist? Or perhaps just focus the tierlist on one type of shoes... Like carbon plated
Hey, thanks for the review. I am totally between hoka speedgoat 5 and that salomon. One thing that’s put me of in regards to salomon, is that couple of reviewers where stating that they squeak after some miles. Can you please share your thoughts on this?
Still not sure what you meant when you said the Salmon shoes were meant for trails that you don’t have. Are they more suitable for highly technical terrains? Never lived in the midwest, but the area seems quite mountainous to me.
3:10 I didn't think it was long, but I've never felt that Salomon fits long. To the contrary, I've always thought that the toe box was a bit boxy and stunted, like on the Salomon Predict
Appreciate you not defruading your viewers with Virtual Races and promises of proceeds going to Charity then pocketing the money and acting like nothing happened! Kudos to you for lifting other up and coming content creators too. Look forward to 200k subs. Cheers Michael.

Do you have any experience with the Pulsar Trail (which is being replaced as a combo of Pulsar Trail & Pulsar Trail Pro)? I would be curious as to how these compare.
@@DavaoCutieTV Super grippy but you honestly can’t feel the lugs on them since it’s such a high stack shoe. Amazing for long runs and honestly, door to trail type stuff as well. The 50k I wore them in saw sugar sand, mud and compact dirt roads. They performed flawlessly. The toe box is way more comfortable than the Speedgoat and honestly, I’d choose these over any Hoka at the moment if you’re looking to go long and stay comfortable.
@@Alabama_Runnr Thanks. I hope this will be available in our country. Looking forward to getting a pair because I really do love the comfort of my GlideRide 3.
Hi, thanks for the video. Hope you can help, my focus was on the road, but have a 2 day trail event (70km) coming up 1st weekend of July. Not sure which shoe to choose: Salomon Glide Max vs Asics Trabuco 11 vs HOKA MAFATE SPEED 4 I'm currently using Nimbus 25/NB 1080 for road. Thank you
I am currently loving the Kayano 29. Would you recommend this shoe for a long distance walking (like 18-24 kms) on the Camino de Santiago? Also is the toe box on the wider or narrower side?
They’re both contagrip, but they’re not identical. I also think the foam is firmer, even though they’re both nominally Energy Foam. And also the upper is stiffer And also the lacing system really locks you on top of the lugs Or maybe I’m just imagining it
I am NOT a fan of a non gusseted tongue. That shit is always getting out of position and just annoying to me. The upper looked pretty padded. Did it get hot on your foot or if you were running through the puddles did it seem to retain water?
Love the show....BUT you really need to stop with the totally unnecessary disclaimers.Its NOT a disclaimer to say you purchased items yourself...It WOULD be a disclaimer to admit a shoe company sent them to you. Also, you seem to want disclaimers "out of the way" so why not just put comments below your video, with real disclaimers??? Other reviewers do. Disclaimer- ' a statement that denies something, especially responsibility'. Otherwise great reviews 👍
so, ive made the call to go with the pro 2 as i got them for 100 bucks over the vaporfly 2 for 180 dollars...did i make a mistake? i see so many nikes but i ran my half marathon/10k PR in speed 2s...thoughts? @kofuzi please weigh in!
Thanks for having me on, such a blast talking trail shoes with you!! ✌️
Great to have you in the channel. Let’s do it again soon!
@@kofuzi absolutely 👏👏👏
Love the "phone a friend" here. Bring Ryan on as a Thursday guest! 👍🏽
I will soon
early enough to catch the salmon
i caught the salmon as well a bit later. :)
The gilded salmon :)
I’m curious when he’s gonna realize 😂
😂😂😂
I uploaded the video and then went on a coffee date. and then I went for a run and then did livestream. just getting to it now
Great collab. Enjoy watching Ryan's content too!

really like the well timed, collaborative efforts.., of course I am subbed to both.🤙🏽
thanks Matthias!
@@kofuzi look 😅 bit ok z so.kozuki 😅l
Yeah I agree two of the better YT s out there!
Salomon pulsar is my go to, lightweight, flexible, ground feel, and snug fit.
I got 2 pairs of the s lab pulsar sg for under 80 each. Same weight as my vaporflys and still pretty cushioned. Great for fkt, tempo, or just slow runs. Highly recommend trying it out.
Pulsar is such a great shoe and i got it on sale as well!
True to size?
@@ADyess086 for the most part. Just narrow.
nice to see you on trails michael, you should go all in and do some races in colorado.
I love running in the woods (for hours and hours if possible). But I don’t necessarily feel called to do much trail racing.
The intro song slaps
Nice Review as always Mr K, surely looking as a possible replacement to my Salomon Ultra Glide 1’s.
I'm pretty sure that the protective tape along the bottom of the upper of many trail shoes is more for keeping out dirt, grit and sand rather than water.
I'll defer to you on that one

Thanks!
I'm seriously considering getting a pair but I'm currently very happy with Asics Trabuco Max 2 and Trabuco Gel 10.... aiya!
ASICS Trabuco Max 2 vs Salomon Glide Max TR? Seem to be going after the same trail type and distance, what are your thoughts? Have a great weekend everyone…and it’s great to see Ryan with Kofuzi.

The title spelling is wrong. By the way, love your videos man. keep up the good work
thanks for the heads up
I think they tried this with the Sense Pro Max which was widely panned but I somehow liked it and ran a 100mi FKT in it a few years ago.
Thank you. 😊
3:14 little Fight Club moment 😅
Did they last a long time?
Still not sure what you meant when you said the Salmon shoes were meant for trails that you don’t have. Are they more suitable for highly technical terrains? Never lived in the midwest, but the area seems quite mountainous to me.
did you watch until the end? Ryan and I discuss it at length
Love the color!
It actually just went on sale for 119$ not bad for max cushion
that's the thing about discussing prices. they never stay the same
How's the fit? Sometimes the Solomon runs long. thanks

I bought them. And my left shoe squeaks bad. It didn't go away after a few runs. Maybe I got a defective pair.
This might be what I am looking for. A replacement for my HOKA SG4.
Still on the hunt, not as much as a fan of the SG5's
Asics Trabuco Max 2 is the Hoka a Speedgoat killer. Wore mine out of the box and personal bested a 50k.
@@Alabama_Runnr I recently watched Kos review for that. Can you share your thoughts with regards to Asics grip vs Vibram?
@@DavaoCutieTV Super grippy but you honestly can’t feel the lugs on them since it’s such a high stack shoe. Amazing for long runs and honestly, door to trail type stuff as well.

Whatabout energy foam's cushioning in cold conditions? How much harder does it get?
I haven’t had a chance to test it in cold conditions.
But for what it’s worth, I find the effect of cold on foam to be overstated
Hi, thanks for the video. Hope you can help, my focus was on the road, but have a 2 day trail event (70km) coming up 1st weekend of July. Not sure which shoe to choose: Salomon Glide Max vs Asics Trabuco 11 vs HOKA MAFATE SPEED 4
I'm currently using Nimbus 25/NB 1080 for road.
Thank you
I haven’t tried the Trabuco, but between the other two, I would decide based on the terrain
I am currently loving the Kayano 29. Would you recommend this shoe for a long distance walking (like 18-24 kms) on the Camino de Santiago? Also is the toe box on the wider or narrower side?
I’m afraid I’m not familiar with the Camino de Santiago
YESSIIIRRRRR!!!!

@3.13 Fight Club cut
A couple of typos in the title there fella, although I do like the sound of a Gilde of Salmon.
I think I can at least partially blame auto correct for that one.
Doesn't the Sense Ride 5 have the same outsole? Don't understand why it would be much better through mud.
They’re both contagrip, but they’re not identical. I also think the foam is firmer, even though they’re both nominally Energy Foam.
And also the upper is stiffer
And also the lacing system really locks you on top of the lugs
Or maybe I’m just imagining it
@@kofuzi Thanks for the more detailed reply.
If you have Speed Goat 5, it sounds like this Salomon is not a good addition. Is it softer than the Speed Goat?
It's proposed as an alternative, not a supplement
what is the softest shoe for the trails that you have ran in?
trabuco max 2 or fresh foam more trail v3 (or whatever the version based off the road More v4 is called)
have you tried the brooks caldera 6?@@kofuzi
Probs just get the ultra glide 1 on sale though
If they are so interchangeable, then the more relevant question you should be asking is: why does this exist when there is an Ultraglide 2?
@@kofuzi I dunno, you scripted the video. Why didn't you talk about the Ultra Glides?
Typo in your title, just FYI
thanks for the heads up
Yum. Salmon.

Its hoka
I am NOT a fan of a non gusseted tongue. That shit is always getting out of position and just annoying to me. The upper looked pretty padded. Did it get hot on your foot or if you were running through the puddles did it seem to retain water?
Sorry - I should have waited till the 8 minute mark. Answered exactly what I asked lol (:
