I bought these at the end of April right when they were released. These shoes have a great balance between providing stability but also giving you a spring in each stride. While some Salomon road shoes run a bit wider, these are perfect for my narrower foot! I tested them in a few training runs and raced a 10k in them in May and they felt smooth! Definitely will be my racing sneakers for this summer. The only downside is I found the laces are a bit slick and can easily come undone if you don't have an extra double/triple knot. Looking forward to more races and forgetting these shoes are on my feet
Wow! This shoe blew my mind with how much faster my road running speed became instantly. The faster pace has been consistent by wearing these shoes, too. They’re lightweight and a joy to run in, even when I’m gaining elevation. In fact, if there’s a shoe that can help you do what your mind wants you to do when you need to push yourself during a road run, this is that shoe! I have so many pairs of Salomon running shoes, I’ve lost count. I run 5.5 miles daily on paved roads but also embark on trail runs when I want to switch it up. These are by far my favorite dry weather summer time road runner.
These fit me perfectly the arch is in the proper place the mid of the shoe is nice and narrow They are extremely light weight responsive & supportive without being overly cushioned. I love the height of the heal and the shape of the sole this really helps me propel my stride. I run 2-5 miles everyday most days of the week. I just ordered two more colors once I find a good fit I stick with it. I also love the speed cross for trails if you have a narrow foot I am on my third pair of those.
This shoe was a little wide for me. I have a narrow heal but need a wide toe box. This was too wide all around, and tightening the laces didn't help, because then the shoe just hurt my feet. The footbed felt super comfortable, so I'm disappointed that the rest of the shoe doesn't work for me. Returning..
I bought the Phantasm in green and I love the colour way, they are bright and eye-catching. I've only worn them a few times but they haven't rubbed and they feel pretty comfy so far. I've worn them mainly for my speed workouts and they certainly compare to other similar trainers that I've used previously!
Really happy with this purchase and love the colour. Toe box was a little snug at first but stretched out nicely after a few wears. Read some reviews that the shoe was quite narrow. I have narrow feet so no issues there. Maybe not the best if you have wider feet.
This is a great shoe. Fits really well and has a nice bounce to it. My issue is they have horrible laces. I run 3-5 miles everyday to every other day and I constantly have to stop to adjust the laces. Please change the laces on these shoes!
Hey, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We often adjust our products based on direct customer feedback. We will make sure to pass this along to our designers for consideration in future products.
I use this shoe often for long runs that are a bit faster than just an easy run but not quite the pace of workouts. Very comfortable for lots of miles or even for an easy run. Update to the upper of the shoe makes it more comfortable!
This may be the most painful pair of running shoes I have ever worn. There is no give in the upper at all and after 3 miles was like wearing a grater on my foot. So narrow also the heal is wide

I bought those shoes 1 month ago. I absolutely love the look. Perfect for faster long runs, but not a daily trainer. Can t wait to put them on for my marathon in 8 weeks!
