Don't know why but I've been waiting on this review from you. Thank you. You've gotten me into Salomon shoes. I bought the original Salomon Ultra Glide 1's because of your review
You're correct, because of the shallow 3,5mm lugs on lots of Salomon shoes lately, it's quite difficult to separate the intended use of them. Sure, the UG has more cushion, the Pulsar Trail has a plate, etc. But in the end the similar outsole limits them all in my opinion, more or less all shoes for dryer more rolling stuff...Anyway, If the SR5 comes closer to the Original it's a good thing, as those were perfect for the intended use. I just dumped the SR3 as it was just not right, lots of better rolling shoes, lots of better in technical, etc., so the SR3 was more of a holiday shoe, you can run, wear it for everything else...and first, at least once :)
To me it feels odd saying that a softer foam brings them closer to the original. The original Sense Ride had a VERY firn midsole. (I still have a pair I use from time to time!)
💯 agree with that, I got probably 700 miles on my last pair of sense ride 4s and i had to replace them because of the lack of padding in the front witch started to hurt my feet
I replaced the insoles in mine with Enertor PX1 insoles. Gives a snugger fit and the shoe weighs a bit more but overall you get just about the right amount of cushion I reckon.
I bought these shoes because i needed a pair that would be good on grass, gravel and tarmac. I was running a hilly 50 mile race that I'd done before in shoes with quite aggressive lugs and that was a big mistake on the paved sections of the course. I live in the city and often run from my home to the trails so this shoe is good for my needs
Hey Loyd. Thanks for the review. My first trail shoes were the SR4's and thought they were brilliant. Upgraded to UG1's from good reviews. Absolutely love my UG1's and happy to stay - for now..... 👊🏻
When you say that the SR5 and UG2 feel similar, that was my exact concern with the move to energy foam for the Sense Ride line. Since it's first version, the sense ride was a firmer shoe that made you feel connected to technical trails allowing you to move nimbly and quickly. Not convinced it really stands out enough to have a place in the quiver now.
With Sportsshoes Easter sale 25% off, just picked up a pair of trail pro 2 for £108!! Put 400 miles on V1 and they look like new! V2 heel cup is supposed to be improved for a better lockdown. Great midsole with a plate in too. Would def recommend them.
I like Salomon for shorter distances. I find the quick lace system doesn't work as I have a wide forefoot. I like to heel lock with a loop on most shoes but without over tightening the fore foot. Cant do that on Salomon, I have to lace super tight to lock the heel with quick lace and then I get forefoot pains if I run for more than 20 miles in them. Good to see some additional cushioning though, the sense ride 4 are hard as nails. Wish they'd make the quick lace system optional.
Salomon don't listen to me. I told them, "Wanna perfect shoe? Put Sense Pro 4 grip under Sense Ride 4 and watch birth of the trail superstar." 😅 Anyway, it's a great video.
Loving your trail shoe reviews of late Loyd - thanks! I’m looking for a shoe to race an 82 mile Ultra in July, much the same mixed terrain as your review here. Do you have any recommendations? I like cushioned / comfort and currently in the Saucony Edge but not sure about them. Thanks in advance. 👍🏻
I still love Hoka Speedgoat 5 for long range comfort but just lately I've really been enjoying the Salomon Ultra Glide 2 with Enertor insoles. A winning combination.
I only really used my 4s for casual use as felt they were a bit too padded and ran warm. As with other Salomons I've tried the outsole performed poorly in the wet or on smoother surfaces and wore through quickly on asphalt/paving. That said I like the convenience of the speed lace...
@@seanmac80 er yeah I know and I have tried it a few times but when the shoe isn't designed for them it doesn't work as well... lace garage, strength of eyelets, lace routing, tongue padding etc...
He had the original one. Then I bought the three that got returned and I never went back to that model. What is a new Solomon shoe that’s equal to the old I had a since 7SG and I love that shoe for like up to 50 K for my training
The lace garage "idea" is great but the execution is not. They put the laces right across the top of the garage thus hindering the access. Anybody have any tips on easing this process?
Ok now I’m confused Loyd 😂 wrote to you recently saying I was disappointed that my ultra glide V1 lost their midsole magic after 100 Mile or so so decided not to pull the trigger on the V2 and went for the saucony ride 15 TR and waiting for them to arrive but now wondering if I should of gone for these!? Help !!!??? 🤷🏼♂️
@@ianlowe4126 I got the Ultra Glide V1 also but it's apart of my trail rotation so they are lasting a bit longer so i haven't had deterioration yet. Loyd has turned me into a Salomon & Saucony Fan. I would go Sense Ride 5 to cover most of what the Glide would cover with a bit of a more comfortable upper. If you want more ruggedness with a runnable frame then I would skip the Ride TR and the Peregrine and go for the Xodus. The Saucony Xodus or Xodus 2 and Salomon Sense Ride 5 are a good Two Shoe Trail combo 👌.
I like the pulsar trails a lot, I think they are very nimble actually.

I would immediately shut up and give them my money if they released sense pro 5 with toebox compatible with a straight big toe! Pro version would have lower drop and softer more pliable midsole and more minimalist upper just like the previous version had.
I would personally go for the Merrell Agility Peak 5. I've been using it for all my long run and it's performing well 👍 Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏
@@Run4Adventure it seem like Salomon has given up all those minimalistic, direct, precise shoes in favor of those looking like pulsar - high, soft midsole, huge rocker :-\ it's good for fast runs, especially in easier terrain, but not as good for slower, technical climbs in the Alps
They’re very different running shoes? The Brooks GTS is a supportive road running shoe and the Sense Ride is a trail running shoe so it’s impossible to compare them, they are built for completely different jobs. Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏
I would still choose the Xodus Ultra 2 Matthew. I find them a bit more comfortable and I prefer the midsole performance 👍 Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏

Can it be run on city road!
I enjoyed the sense ride 4. I used them in many ultras only thing missing is more cushion when your pushing the pace down hill wasn’t so forgiving

I agree with the shallow lugs trend with salomon. Hope they bring back the 4mm or maybe give more.
A slightly deeper lug would be a good idea 👍

Yes, we wanna see that video! Also a video where you compare Mefate speed and Xodus Ultra 2
Would love to see the SR-UG comparison indeed!
I'll see what I can do Sander 👍

another good review, thx Loyd (bdw, just love the funny endings 🤣)
Glad you're enjoying the channel and the outtakes Wojtek, thanks for watching 🙏😊
I wish I would have seen this video a few weeks ago before i bought them…should have bought them half a size bigger…
Big fan! Own 2 pair already
Would like to see the head to head comparison
Need that comparison vid!
Always best to get rid of that new shoe look in a trail shoe ASAP!
Salomon don't listen to me. I told them, "Wanna perfect shoe? Put Sense Pro 4 grip under Sense Ride 4 and watch birth of the trail superstar." 😅
Anyway, it's a great video.
Thanks very much, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! 🙏😊
A comparison with the ultra glides yes please Mr adventures 👍

You can literally buy speed laces and add them to any shoe you like.
@@seanmac80 er yeah I know and I have tried it a few times but when the shoe isn't designed for them it doesn't work as well... lace garage, strength of eyelets, lace routing, tongue padding etc...
Does the lace stow away in the tongue like in the ultra glides? If so is it any easier to get them in there?

I totally agree, it’s a great system but the positioning of the lace pocket on some Salomon shoes isn’t great? 🤷♂️
Thanks for watching 🙏
Curious of the comparison SLab Genesis vs SR5/UG2 …
I have Genesis and feel they might eliminate need for either SR5/UG2.. your thoughts? Thank you
Which is better in your opinion @Run4Adventure SALOMON SENSE RIDE 5 ,Salomon PULSAR TRAIL or New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v4 ? 🤔😇
Ok now I’m confused Loyd 😂 wrote to you recently saying I was disappointed that my ultra glide V1 lost their midsole magic after 100 Mile or so so decided not to pull the trigger on the V2 and went for the saucony ride 15 TR and waiting for them to arrive but now wondering if I should of gone for these!?

hm. i ran in the 3s, the 4s and the pulsar trails, always wanted something more nimble from salomon, like what ive heard about the sr 1+2.

Hello sir good morning…i will be running for 5Ok..what can u recommend between sense ride 5 vs the merrel agility 5 thank you in advance
I would personally go for the Merrell Agility Peak 5. I've been using it for all my long run and it's performing well 👍
Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏
Brooks Catamount 2?!
uhh, why they had to bury the Sense 4 Pro ? I really hoped this would be a replacement, but doesn't feel like
This is a very different shoe compared to the Sense Pro 4 👍

@@mmmmkkk That's the way the whole running shoe market has gone so they're just following the trend 🤔
@@Run4Adventure unfortunately, hopefully, as usually with fashion, we'll get normal shoes back in a decade or so, haha
@@mmmmkkk I'm sure we will 😂
This vs brooks gts 22 which you prefer ?

Where do the excess tie go?
There's a lace pocket in the tounge on all Salomon shoe's which use their quick lace system 👍
Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏
How do you compare to Saucony Ultra 2 ??
I would still choose the Xodus Ultra 2 Matthew. I find them a bit more comfortable and I prefer the midsole performance 👍
Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏
What’s the bounce/energy return like Loyd ?
It's definitely more cushioned this time round but I still wouldn't call it a deeply cushioned trail shoe 👍
Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏
@@Run4Adventure the Ride 1’s were amazing, had several pairs . Don’t remember them having 8mm drop.
Great video as ever mate
@@JB-uv1cg I'm pretty it's always been an 8mm off set? 🤔
Glad you enjoyed the video JB 👍
Bought the SR 4s on a whim. Literally the worst pair of shoes I've ever owned. Gave them away after less than 100km.
Thanks for this information about the Salomón 2023, Loyd. Here is my like. ⛰️🏃🌤️
