The Phantasm is a competition shoe for the neutral runner. This fast shoe is the result of a collaboration between Salomon and Ciele athletics (known for their running caps). This running shoe with a unique design is designed for fast training and competition. The upper is made of Matryx, which is a premium and durable material. This material is very strong, but at the same time light and breathable. The midsole consists of the light and responsive Energy Surge. This lightweight foam is made of EVA and Olefin to create the ultimate blend of cushioning and responsiveness. This foam is also used in Salomon's trail collection, namely with the Ultraglide and Pulsar. While running, you'll feel a forward thrust thanks to the Energy Blade (a fiberglass plate), which runs from heel to forefoot. In addition, the sole has an R-Camber design with a toe section that is raised extra to stimulate the push off to the toes. In short, put on this shoe and break your personal records.
