A little history about the brand
Salomon is a French brand born in France and based in Annecy. It has gained legitimacy in recent years, particularly in mountain sports. The company is indeed recognized for its ski bindings and skis. It is also the first brand to turn to trail running in the 2000s by creating the first trail running shoes. It was able to rely on the experience of international athletes such as the very famous Killian Jornet: 8-time world champion in ski mountaineering, winner of the UTMB, the Grand Raid, and the very difficult Western States.
