Salming iSpike – is chosen as a Gold Winner at ISPO in the category Health & Fitness – Trailrunning Shoes.
Thomas Nord, Salming Head of Design, said: “We are super excited and humbled to receive such a high profile sports industry award like this and it confirms our belief in our commitment to develop no nonsense products for no nonsense people.
“Like all product development that pushes the envelope, it comes down to attention to detail, novel technologies and team effort. The latter in this case, is externalized in our close co-operation with Vibram Italy and their novel Litebase outsole technology.”
Based on the success of the award winning Salming Trail5, they set out to create the winter running equivalent of it. They wanted the shoe to perform and make you feel secure and confident when hitting the occasional icy spot and provide an amazing ground control in winter snow-packed terrain.
To succeed they once again teamed up with the world’s leading authority on performance outsoles – Vibram – the Swedish-Italian design and technology co-operation continues.
