  • Running Shoes Guru : 81.9 / 100 — « Pairing Salomon's Energy Foam platform with a 12.5 mm drop, the Ultra Flow strikes a convincing balance between impact protection and lively turnover (258 g, a 12.5 mm drop). Its upper lockdown and outsole durability on trail make it a standout contender at €130. »
  • RunRepeat : 81.6 / 100 — « The Salomon Ultra Flow is a versatile door-to-trail shoe with a breathable-and-durable upper and a lightweight build. On our runs, we found it ready for many types of adventures and lighter than most similar shoes, making it enjoyable on mixed surfaces. We really liked how it stays stable for heel strikers yet nimble on turns. We think it’s a great pick for those wanting a fun, all-around trail workhorse at a fair price, though the steep drop and snug fit could be a major drawback for some. »
