Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Does the Salomon S/Lab Phantasm fit true to size?
The shoe fits slightly large, especially in the length. It’s therefore better to try it on in store if you have the possibility. Otherwise, you can try to size down.
I have overpronation. Are the Salomon S/Lab Phantasm adapted for me?
Yes, this shoe should be suitable for all people. Indeed, it’s a neutral running shoe. Therefore, it aims to suit all runners independently from their type of pronation. It’s not equipped with stability aids to guide the movement and prevent overpronation. At any rate, stability shoes are not a better choice than neutral shoes in preventing injury. Comfort should be the first criterion when selecting running shoes, not the gait, although the two can sometimes be linked.
I weigh 198 lbs/90 kg or more. Is this shoe adapted for me?
A scientific study has shown that minimalist shoes (i.e., with a very thin sole) can increase the risk of injury for athletes who weigh more than 71 kg/157 lbs. The Salomon S/Lab Phantasm has a 20 mm heel stack height, which is low without being considered minimalist. If you’re not sure, we advise you to avoid this model if you are a heavyweight runner, especially if you mainly run with high-stack shoes.
Is this model recommended to run a marathon?
This Salomon road running shoe is very suitable for different types of training and distances. So you can use it for all kinds of daily workouts. For the anedcode, Kilian Jornet wore it during his 24-hour running challenge in 2020. However, its low stack height (20 mm under the heel) may not be suitable for everyone for long distances.
