Description
Exceptionally Lightweight Tactical Shoe
The Speed Assault 2 GTX from Salomon is a performance-oriented tactical boot that stands out for its exceptional lightness and flexibility. Weighing just 330 grams, this boot is ideal for a variety of operational environments, from desert missions to jungle training camps and operations in wet areas. The latest version emphasizes an improved fit around the upper foot and an innovative design.
Sole Construction
The sole construction of the Speed Assault 2 GTX includes several components specifically designed for high performance and comfort.
Midsole
A key component is the EnergyCell material, a high-performance EVA foam known for its outstanding cushioning. This foam is characterized by excellent shock absorption and the ability to recover energy, which enhances both comfort and walking efficiency.
Outsole
The outsole is made of Contagrip TA, which is specifically designed for excellent grip on various types of terrain. It is equipped with Chevron lugs that deeply penetrate the ground, providing outstanding traction on soft, loose, or uneven surfaces. These features make the boot particularly suitable for use in changing and demanding environments.
Insole
The sole construction is complemented by a molded OrthoLite insole that provides additional comfort and cushioning for the footbed. Thanks to perforations, the OrthoLite sole offers improved breathability and moisture management, ensuring a comfortable climate inside the shoe.
Materials and Construction
The construction of the Speed Assault 2 GTX is characterized by a lightweight design that benefits from the innovative technologies of Salomon's trail running shoes, with a strong focus on performance, durability, flexibility, and agility. The upper material combines Ripstop fabric, Anti-Debris Mesh, and TPU materials, which together form a robust yet flexible structure. Additionally, an integrated GORE-TEX membrane ensures reliable weather protection under all conditions.
Anti-Debris Mesh
The Anti-Debris Mesh prevents the penetration of dirt, sand, and small stones while maintaining excellent breathability. This feature is crucial for maintaining agility and comfort during tactical or military operations, where the cleanliness and functionality of the footwear are essential. The mesh also enhances the durability and flexibility of the shoe, making it suitable for use in various demanding environments.
Ripstop Fabric
In the Speed Assault 2 GTX, Salomon uses Ripstop fabric to effectively protect the foot under extreme conditions while keeping the shoe's weight low. Ripstop fabric is a material specifically developed for its resistance to tears and wear.
It is characterized by the weaving of reinforced threads in a crosshatch pattern at regular intervals into the fabric. These reinforcements give the fabric high robustness and ensure that if a tear occurs, it does not spread or fray beyond the material.Single Layer Mesh
Single Layer Mesh is a type of material that lies directly against the foot and provides maximum sensation. This mesh is used in Salomon boots to ensure excellent breathability while also offering light protection from small foreign bodies without compromising freedom of movement or comfort.
Lycra Stretch
Lycra Stretch material is used to ensure a flexible yet secure fit. The Lycra material allows the shoe to conform to the foot without constricting, which enhances wearing comfort and provides better support. Additionally, Lycra Stretch offers the necessary flexibility that allows the boot to follow the foot's movements without restrictions, which is particularly important during activities in changing terrain.
Gore-Tex Membrane
In the GTX version of the tactical boot, a Gore-Tex membrane made of porous PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) is embedded between the outer material and the lining. This membrane is water-repellent but allows sweat in the form of vapor to escape. This keeps the feet dry and comfortable, effectively protects against moisture, and simultaneously offers high breathability.
Fit and Construction for Optimized Functionality
SensiFit System
The SensiFit system of the boot encompasses the foot, from the midsole to the Quicklace fast-lacing system, ensuring a precise, secure fit. Additionally, the interior of the boot is reinforced to provide optimal support during activities such as climbing and rapid rappelling.
Quicklace System
Salomon's Quicklace technology facilitates quick and easy adjustment of the shoe fit by tightening the lace with a single pull, and the excess length is conveniently stored in a special pocket on the tongue side of the shoe.
This lacing method distributes pressure evenly across the entire foot, eliminates pressure points, and can be easily operated even while wearing gloves, making it particularly suitable for tactical use. Additionally, the lace hooks are designed to be closed to minimize the risk of tripping.
Rubber Cap and Mudguard
The 3D rubber toe cap effectively protects the toes against impacts and hard strikes while also providing abrasion resistance and a waterproof barrier that enhances the boot's durability and keeps the feet dry. Modern shaping techniques improve wearing comfort and contribute to the structural stability of the boot, which is essential for quick movements and safe maneuvering in difficult conditions.The Speed Assault 2 GTX is the ideal choice for service personnel who value a lightweight and modern boot that ensures agility and functionality in challenging environments. Thanks to the combination of advanced materials and the latest technologies, this boot offers maximum comfort, optimal protection, and outstanding performance, making it perfect for diverse and demanding operational scenarios.
