Features

  • Breathable, engineered mesh uppers combined with light padding on the tongues provide exceptional comfort while keeping the shoes extremely light

  • optiFOAM² midsoles deliver the optimal blend of cushioned shock absorption for your landings and high-energy, dynamic rebound for more reactive strides
  • optiFOAM² is a lightweight foam with superior energy absorption and energy return—responsive and cushioned for resilient bounce and pop
  • Molded OrthoLite® sockliners
  • An optimized rocker geometry helps keep the pace when you need it while ensuring smooth, easy transitions
  • Inspired by the Salomon brand's ski heritage, reverse camber curved midsole geometry helps you feel like you are floating over the ground

Love my salomons

I bought this shoe 2 months ago and have been training in them for my long runs. The shoe fits perfectly in my neutral feet. They are very light and I feel like flying.

The Most Versatile Daily Trainer

The Aero Blaze 3 is that rare shoe everyone ends up loving. I use it for everything—easy miles, tempo efforts, long aerobic runs—and it handles all of it without feeling out of place. The rocker geometry is elite: smooth, quick, and effortless when you settle into pace. The cushioning feels balanced and protective, and the overall ride is so good that nearly all my training partners have picked up a pair after trying mine. This is one of those shoes you can build your whole week around. Honestly might order a couple more just to have backups!!

Aero Blaze 3 🔥

This was my first time using a Salomon product and I am beyond excited for where they are headed within road running. My first impression centered around how light the shoes felt. Very simple shoe, but they get the job done and felt great at a variety of paces. I also really enjoyed walking around in them in addition to my runs. My only updates that I would like to see are more of a personal preference- more support in the midfoot upper, a slightly wider forefoot, and more color blocking in the upper and color in the midsole :) This shoe has been so fun to use- I’ve got 25 miles on them in my first week. Lastly, I’m curious about the durability as so far the rubber seems okay, but the exposed midsole seems to have slightly more wear than I would expect. One of my favorite shoes this year!!!

Ultra light

I bought this product a few weeks ago and was surprised by how lightweight it is. However, I find the sole quite bouncy. It's comfortable, but I'm not used to this type of shoe. I usually wear hiking boots, so it makes a big difference. I find the heel a bit high. I imagine it's designed for running. I bought this shoe for walking, and I'll definitely get used to it because it's still very comfortable. I hope it will last!

Wonderful road running shoe!

I use these shoes to run along the Green Necklace in North Vancouver, as well as the sea wall in downtown Vancouver. These routes are 95% pavement, and these runners are incredible. I have put ~650km on them in the past year, so it's time to buy another pair, which is what I have done. I also use these shoes for nature walks (not aggressive hiking though), so they have some versatility as well. Highly recommend!

Excellent shoes, comfortable and perform well

About these shoes prior to doing a half marathon as my other shoes are getting a little bit worn, I was using the aero blaze 2 and the Aero glide 2, with my preference being the aero blaze, and this model knocked it out of the park. So far using it for about 150 to 200 km., it still feels like they’re new out of the box highly highly recommend

The Perfect Road Shoe For Me

They say never use new gear on a race. Well, I bought the Aero Blaze 3s, did a 2 mile neighborhood walk, then ran the Biggest Little Ultra 12 Hour race in these shoes. I got a minor blister in my right pinky toe. No factor. I don't know who "they" are. But when it comes to the AeroBlaze 3s, I think they are wrong.

Fashion meets comfort

Excellent running shoe! New to running - glad to have this as my first purchase. Ordered a size up from my normal size (13) and they fit as desired. Had more experienced runners hold them to which all were amazed at how light they are. I’ve know Salomon for quality in the past, this item did not disappoint.

Comfortable for walking, but not for running.

These shoes at first feel light and comfortable to walk around at the running shop. However, after run in a nearby park on a variety of surfaces at warm- up, progressive efforts and cool down, they are not for me. They are too soft. The cushion makes the shoe unstable. I do not recommend these.
