Salomon Aero Glide

[@Sergygo]

You should make a tier list video of all the brands based off their current line up! That’d be pretty cool!

[@kofuzi]

now would be a very weird time to make that list. we're in between seasons

[@Sergygo]

@@kofuzi I can understand that, I just thought it would be a cool video from your perspective! But if that video ever comes out i’ll be the first to click! Haha

[@Thieleklix]

Hi Mike, your videos are by far the best videos here on youtube. Nobody else does the way you test the shoes. I can always trust in that what you say. Keep it up.👍👍👍👍

[@AubreyRunning]

Excellent review sir, I hate your reviews for the fact that I always feel like I need the shoe you’re talking about afterwards 😂😂😂😂

[@mtnrnnr50]

Kofuzi is on 🔥 this week

[@timetorunchannel]

Thanks Ko! This review was exactly what I needed to know of where the shoe landed compared to others. Thanks brother!👏

[@gabes3dvideos]

10mm drop…love Salomon design and tech but not their preference of drop

[@sachakopa7964]

Yeah, I don’t usually enjoy anything over 8mm drop in most iterations. It changes my stride/landing too much. Find it annoying with the Triumph 20’s.

[@johnnylineham59]

I have the Salomon Glide Max from last year and this looks to have the same midsole and outsole, just a new upper. I'm using that as my daily/easy run shoe in my marathon training at the moment, it's been a great shoe. I'm really enjoying the wee bit of firmness it has, very stable and kind of fool-proof to run in, it's kind on the body in-between those longer or harder work outs. I'd definitely pick the Aero Glide up once those wear out... which I suspect will take quite some time!!

[@giacomo9650]

Didn't know a glide max existed...checked salomon website description and i think that you are right, same sole and midsole. You saved me 50€. Thanks!🙂

Another shoe I would compare it with is the Mizuno Wave Sky 6 . This one is also a very nimble high cushioning shoe, and it is not too soft like what you described about this Salomon Aero Glide. There are so many brands and amazing shoes ... hard decisions !

[@kofuzi]

It’s a great time to be a runner

[@percrunner1433]

The sky 6 is massively underrated

[@stephencsaplar6382]

I have run about 50 miles in this shoe and I enjoy the feeling of the under foot foam. However I do feel like I’m leaning too forward when running and the cushion under my toes feels a little too thin, which makes it a little uncomfortable. Perhaps I should have gone for a half size bigger. Salomon going in the right direction with their road shoes. 🏃🏻‍♂️👍

[@kofuzi]

thanks for the feedback!

[@wordsovsean8905]

I have the Glide Max from last year and the sole looks basically the same. I have the same issue that you're describing. I've done a about 40km, though admittedly my run today was the best they've felt. Hopefully it's something that will get better with time. I do think it has something to do with the high drop, but the cushioning should be enough. It's almost like my foot wants to slide/move forward and I'm clenching my toes to prevent this. During my run today I made a conscious effort to relax my toes and it was better, but whether that's a viable long term solution, I don't know. Hopefully the shoe will feel more natural as I use it more. I think the foam is pretty well dialled in, but I'm still struggling to get a consistent lock down as it loosens up over the course of the run. I think the tongue is too thick and gradually compresses, reducing the lace tension. Still, I think there is potential for the shoe to work well for me.

[@pbnotj1]

Well another great shoe to consider as my brooks glycerin 20s are wearing out. Can find triumphs 20 locally though now so probably going that way …

[@kofuzi]

I think Glycerine wearers will find the Aero Glide really quite nice

I haven´t run in this shoe, but I have in the Salomon Ultra Glide 2 being their max cushioned trail shoe (also a bit on the firmer side). It seems like these two make a nice pair.

This is the reinterpretation of the Glide Max that wasn’t officially released in the US last year. If anything, it should be called GlideMax 2.

[@blakebytheway5398]

I do understand $160 is a lot for a shoe but also I know people who are paying 300-600 on a pair of not super comfortable not going to wear as much so they don't crease them. I think that for the 300-400 Mile's I can get in a show is so worth it if the shoe is good.

[@kofuzi]

I think you're talking apples and oranges though. 300-600 for a shoe you don't want to crease sounds more like a collectible whose performance characteristics are secondary (or perhaps even less important than that)

[@blakebytheway5398]

@@kofuzi Yeah, what I'm saying is if the shoe is good enough the price is quite justifiable in today's standards. But your very right it is basically a collectible at that point and not worth it to just look at it.

[@blakebytheway5398]

Performance was once a huge factor like per say Jordans now they are a fashion statement 😂

[@claudiobarreira9115]

How's it compare to the Glideride 3?

the shoes would be used similarly, but the glideride 3 is a much softer shoe

Never used a show with this much drop. Q: would a shoe like this be good for someone dealing with some plantar fasciitis? Been running for years but a few days ago i was stopped dead 1/2 way through a 10 mile run in my trusty Clifton 8s when i developed severe pain under my left heal - so guessing PF. Thanks

[@kofuzi]

I've not dealt with PF personally and I don't have medical training. but whenever people ask "is this a good shoe for [my medical condition]?" My general thought is to remedy the medical condition (and I don't mean rest, but strengthen the things that need strengthening so as to avoid recurrence of the condition). and then worry about the running shoes.

[@George-lz6ue]

Hi, I got over PF a few years ago and it has not returned by doing a couple of minutes of physio exercises most days (still) to increase blood flow, and then following an anti-inflammatory diet. Good luck and it is fixable.

[@marlinweekley51]

@@George-lz6ue thanks for the encouragement 👍

[@f_youtubecensorshipf_nazis]

It really seems like you either are a fan of their shoes or you're not. I don't think cushioning is going to make a difference. Saloman people seem to only wear Salomon. I thought it was "salmon" until I was a grown up.

It’s a great time to be a runner. Brands are both catering to a specific set of preferences and also experimenting to reach new audiences
