salomon city marathon running shoes designed for the run
One person, one city
A promise to oneself
A run forward with no end
Just to
Witness this prosperous era
—Quoted from Codoon Run
One of the charms of a marathon is the openness of the race venue. Other sports events are either held on familiar grounds or in routine circles, but marathon courses are often chosen from city roads. For participants, every step and every mile offers a different view.
Nowadays, more and more long-distance running enthusiasts are joining the marathon crowd, hoping to have a pair of professional marathon running shoes that can safely and quickly help them complete the 42.195 kilometers on city roads.
Founded in France in 1947, the outdoor sports brand Salomon has always advocated design for freedom, boasting numerous patents and being renowned for its hiking, skiing, and trail running products. From mountain hiking to alpine running, Salomon has always been there to protect! Now, with its long history and strong capabilities, it has ventured into the development and production of city road running shoes, ensuring marathon enthusiasts reach the finish line safely and smoothly.
The Salomon city marathon running shoes SONIC RA are born to meet the times and the marathon!
No more idle talk, let's recognize the goods through picture reviews and road tests!
Joy upon opening the 'box'
A quick 'shoe' tour
Attention to 'details'
'Merit' cannot be overlooked
Four famous 'assists'
Light 'shoes' on familiar roads
Hit the road with these dazzling fluorescent yellow running shoes.
Today's weather in Beijing is beautiful. Wearing the new Salomon running shoes under the blue sky and white clouds, my mood is also great!
How about my outfit? The fluorescent yellow top, fluorescent yellow arm sleeves, and fluorescent yellow compression socks were all bought from the Codoon store. Paired with black shorts, they go perfectly with the fluorescent yellow and black shoes! Very eye-catching on the road.
As soon as my foot stepped onto the asphalt road, it felt like stepping on poop!
The shoes fit snugly on the feet, feeling like one with them, allowing for free bouncing.
The stable landing is due to the Sensifit fitting technology designed for road surfaces, which locks the foot in place, providing stability and protection.
The feeling of being airborne is intense, like flying!
The sole uses lightweight cushioning materials, effectively reducing impact and minimizing fatigue caused by vibrations.
Lightweight and flexible, light and comfortable, light and fast.
The thickness of the sole is just right, 20mm at the front and 28mm at the back, with an 8mm drop, which is a blessing for runners who are used to landing on their heels.
Even if you land on your forefoot, the 20mm thick forefoot sole combined with the top-notch Ortholite brand insoles will make you feel no discomfort.
After road running, simulate trail running in the park to feel the shoe's stability, grip, slip resistance, and shock absorption on various surfaces.
Due to the heat-bonded support strips on the upper, you will feel good support and stability even when hiking on rugged mountain trails, giving a sense of solid footing.
Running on stone steps, I have unwavering trust in Salomon!
The sole uses a geometric zonal cushioning design, with zonal longitudinal lines evenly distributing the sole, smoothly transitioning the force transmission during running, making every step feel natural.
The grip of this sole is also impressive.
The protective toe cap not only prevents toe injuries and alleviates foot impacts during running but also provides effective protection during trail running.
Day and night
The label on the shoe box indicates the color as 'Safety yellow,' which is the most eye-catching color, whether day or night!
Runners who often run at night choose fluorescent yellow for safety, peace, and insurance!

In summary
After more than a month of road running tests, from 5 kilometers, 10 kilometers to half marathons, combining the previous 'Joy upon opening the box'—product parameters, 'A quick shoe tour'—multi-dimensional appearance, 'Attention to details'—detail display, 'Merit cannot be overlooked'—functional features, 'Four famous assists'—technological support, 'Light shoes on familiar roads'—road running tests, 'Day and night'—night running safety, the conclusion is as follows:
The most prominent feeling for me is the beautiful design of the shoe body, strong wrapping, and good breathability. Although it does not use Salomon's patented lace system, the traditional laces are surprisingly firm when tied! As a world-renowned outdoor goods manufacturer with a long history, Salomon uses the world-renowned Ortholite brand insoles, pursuing perfection, professionalism, and cutting-edge technology.
The thickened outsole uses foam rubber material, which does not add weight to the shoe body. While ensuring effective rebound, it still maintains the lightweight nature of running shoes. This pair is not only the lightest among all my running shoes but also the only pair with equal weight for both left and right shoes, solving my confusion of 'Shouldn't shoes be equally weighted?'
The geometric zonal cushioning technology in the sole is a highlight of Salomon's integration into this running shoe. It effectively reduces ground contact obstacles from different angles, making the gait smooth and fluid. It also feels more durable than the soles of the previously tested Salomon trail running shoes.
If I had to point out a slight regret, one is that Salomon's shoe sizes differ from Chinese sizes, and the shoes run small. For example, if I usually wear Chinese size 27 or European size 44, then for Salomon, I need to choose 44 2/3; if it's 27.5, I need to choose 45 1/3.
Another is that I really like the Salomon brand and its logo. The salomon text in other colors is very noticeable, but the white text on the fluorescent yellow design is not very eye-catching. Also, the iconic mountain-to-mountain diagonal stripes on the side of the shoe are different from the previous style. I prefer the one that left a deep impression in people's minds. Of course, if you are not a brand enthusiast, you can completely ignore this, as these do not affect the shoe's technical content, especially since fluorescent yellow is a safety color. Safety comes first in running, especially night running.
