Salomon Sportstyle and Ciele Athletics present their new, exclusive collaboration named "Distance Nirvana" in a limited edition.

The mood? Shoes that inspire you to reach that perfect quietude that running can offer. A unique feeling of freedom felt when running through beautiful landscapes of valleys and mountains.

Soothing and earthy colors dress up the new Salomon Glide Max TR trail running shoe, the Aero Glide road running shoe, as well as the Reelax MOC 6.0 recovery shoe.

Salomon, a global leader in trail running, partners once again with Ciele Athletics, a Canadian brand specializing in running gear, for a collaboration centered around three models of Salomon running shoes from the Spring/Summer 2023 range. These new designs of the Glide Max TR for the trail, the Aero Glide for road running, and the Reelax MOC 6.0 for recovery set themselves apart with abstract shapes and a soothing color palette that evokes the feeling of fulfillment one can achieve when running in nature.

"We tried to visually represent the state of mind runners are in during their moments of euphoria, also known as 'Distance Nirvana.' That moment of fulfillment where only your next stride matters," explains Dan Marrett, Global Marketing and Business Development Director at Ciele Athletics. "Marco and I started with a blank slate with just enough graphics to recreate that feeling. The final result is clean, the pieces are very different but connected."

• The Glide Max TR x Ciele Athletics features colors inspired by the natural tones of rocks and vegetation found during a run in the American desert.

• The Aero Glide x Ciele Athletics is adorned in blue and green tones, accented with touches of yellow and pink that will remind you of the soothing colors of sunrises and sunsets.

The words "perfect quietude. freedom. the higher happiness. never mind the pain" are printed on these 2 models to describe this feeling that cannot be achieved without effort.

• The Reelax MOC 6.0 x Ciele Athletics is dressed in abstract designs, with colors inspired by the lush jungle and the driest desert.

The Glide Max Trail x Ciele Athletics stands out as the most comfortable and best-cushioned trail shoe ever designed by Salomon. It is characterized by a high-stack construction and an Energy Foam midsole, similar to that of the Ultra-Glide, but with an extra amount of foam offering optimal comfort with every foot strike. The outsole, featuring All-Terrain Contagrip technology, ensures unparalleled grip on all surfaces. The R.Camber rocker geometry allows for quick transitions while emphasizing comfort. The Glide Max Trail offers a wider fit than the Ultra-Glide to accommodate all foot types and uses traditional laces. With its featherweight of only 284 grams, this shoe is exceptionally light. Its drop is 6 mm.

For 16 years, the Reelax MOC 6.0 x Ciele Athletics has established itself as the ultimate ally for athletes, offering exceptional comfort before and after execution to promote recovery. The 6.0 version stands out with unmatched comfort thanks to a softer and more generously sized EVA. Salomon's Fuze Surge technology, integrated into the midsole, provides runners with superior cushioning and increased comfort, utilizing 30% natural rubber. This new version is also characterized by an increased height and an extremely airy mesh upper, ensuring optimal breathability. The Contagrip sole, redesigned with a reworked pattern, allows users to benefit from this shoe not only for recovery but also for other activities. Finally, the collapsible heel gives this shoe great versatility, offering easy slip-on convenience and lasting comfort.

Inspired by the Salomon Glide Max shoe, the Aero Glide x Ciele Athletics offers maximum cushioning that allows you to log miles with complete peace of mind. Salomon's Energy Foam technology is integrated into the midsole, combining EVA and olefin to absorb shocks and vibrations, thereby providing genuine cushioning while offering significant bounce and energy return. The result is unparalleled comfort, even after hundreds of kilometers covered. Thanks to its R.Camber rocker geometry, this dynamic shoe ensures a quick transition with every contact with the ground, allowing you to move forward fluidly. The upper of the shoe is made of 32% recycled materials (by weight), and its lighter-than-normal 3D open mesh keeps your feet dry. The padded tongue and collar make the shoe easy to put on and guarantee optimal comfort during your run. With its featherweight of only 264 grams, the Aero Glide is the ideal shoe for comfortable daily runs.
