Salomon Speed Assault 2

Description

The name says it all: these are fast and offensive running attack shoes. As light as they come with a tread that tackles anything below your feet: mud, roots, sand, rivers of blood of your enemies... With stealthy colors, these will blend in with your high-speed low-drag kit.

The idea when it comes to Salomon Speed Assault 2 and water is that the shoes are probably going to be dunked anyways: better make them with the least amount of water-absorbing material to keep them light and allow fast drying. Heard it before? Yes: US Jungle Boots as used in Vietnam followed the same principle. War-proven!

Size guide

Sizes listed in UK size, then the comparable EU size. Foot length in millimeters is also found in the chart below. The last width on these is narrow/regular: narrow-footed people will be happier with these compared to other models and regular feet will be fine. If you have wide feet, consider picking a half-size larger.

Foot measuring guide

Find a sheet of paper, a ruler, and a pen. Make sure that you are wearing the same socks that you would normally wear with this type of shoes.

Stand on the sheet of paper and draw a line just in front of your big toe and behind the heel. Try to keep the pen upright, don't angle it under your foot. There might be a slight difference between your left and right foot – measure both to be sure.

Measure the longest distance between the lines and find this measurement in the chart. If you fall between sizes, pick the larger one. A couple of mm extra length of a shoe doesn't hurt, but even a slightly too short shoe is bad.
