THIS FANTASTIC LIGHTWEIGHT, mesh shoe incorporates all of the unique technologies of Salming Xfactor and then some.
The shoe's upper is made from a durable lightweight polyester fabric, which is then covered in a special black EXO-skeleton that effectively helps keep the foot in the right position during lateral movements and high performance activities. This uniquely comfortable upper construction helps the shoe to feel perfect on your foot from the first instant with virtually zero "break-in" time.
Compared with its popular sibling, the Salming Xfactor, Race is designed with less heel to toe drop, and a thicker forefoot with greater rebound characteristics, making it extremely comfortable and fun to run in.
At the core of the shoe's design, you will find our unique T.G.S. 62/75° system which specifically designates the distance from heel to the ball of the foot (62% of the shoe)in order to optimize stability, comfort, and performance. Key to this design is the firmer, stabilizing section which ends at the ball of the foot at the so-called "ballet" line, a 75° angle. In front of the 75° line, we have equipped Salming Race with a specially composed section which gives greater flexibility in order to further stimulate the foot's natural movements.
In addition, this great shoe features both our 5°™ angle concept on the outer edge of the shoe which helps avoid the risk of ankle injury, and our innovative RollBar™ technology on the inner edge, for quicker and better lateral push-off.

ErgoHeelCup™ UPPER To stabilize and fixate the heel, which is key to providing a great fit and comfort, we have developed a new anatomical Ergo Heel Cup that is slightly longer than the average heel cup. |
|
|
Exo Skeleton™ UPPER The exo skeleton design stabilizes the foot for lateral movements and reduces pressure at the MTP joints (Metatarsophalangeal joints). It is important to keep the foot stable medio-lateral, avoiding friction and side forces in the soft parts of the foot sole, especially underneath the forefoot. |

T.G.S.62/75™ MID SOLE Torsion Guide System The distance from heel to the ball of the foot (62% of the shoe) has been designed with extra stability, which ends in the so-called \"ballet\" line, a 75° angle. In front of the 75° line, we have equipped the shoe with greater flexibility to stimulate the foot's natural movements. TGS 62/75 takes all of the gait cycle criteria into consideration. At the same time, it softens the strains caused by friction during lateral movements. The shoe bends in exactly the right places, stimulating the foot's natural lateral and forward movements. |

LMS™ MID SOLE Lateral Movement Stabilizer - an especially designed light weight integrated dual torsion unit that supports the foot during fast and irregular lateral movements. |
|
|
Rebound Foam MID SOLE Forefoot rebound energy foam - RE35. 80% better rebound energy than a regular EVA midsole compound. |
|
|
Cushioning Foam MID SOLE Heel cushioning foam - C35, positioned at the heel center, gives you 70% better shock absorption than a regular EVA midsole compound. |
|
|
RollBar™ OUTER SOLE An increased radius on the inner side of the outer sole, facilitates rolling the foot inwards and toe push off. Reaching for that stop ball in squash or covering a shot in floorball is made easier with the RollBar™ technology. |
|
|
LMS+ OUTER SOLE Fast lateral stops expose the foot to the risk to roll over outwards, causing injuries. LMS+ (Lateral Movement Stabilizer Plus) is a unique design with a positive angle of 5° that prevents the foot from rolling over outwards. |

|
XR110 OUTER SOLE A newly developed durable rubber compound with excellent 25% traction improvement! |

SpeedLite™ OUTER SOLE The SpeedLite™ midsole is a lightweight performance EVA compound with long lasting cushioning qualities. |
About Salming
We are the athletes' brand, constantly looking for new ways to play, new demands, and new needs. Old truths often need to be reconsidered, and we are not afraid to break a rule or two if necessary. Good can always be a little bit better. You can always train a little bit harder. But sometimes it is up to the equipment, and that are the occasions we aim at when we develop our gear. Do you play with us or do you dare the risk?
You have an eye for the game; we have an eye for details. A winning combination that has proved successful over and over again since we first entered the game with great visions 10 years ago.
