The groundhog may have said we still have six more weeks of winter but Spring is still nearing and that means wet weather. Time to gear up.

The Salomon XA Pro 3D XCR is the Salomon’s marquee shot for wet weather conditions. It’s built for agility, stability, protection, traction with Gore-Tex and XCR product technology. The upper is made of water resistant textile, Gore-Tex membrane, and water proof lining. It uses Salomon’s Quicklace and Sensifit which add up to quick-as-hell wear and comfortable-as-hell fit. But this shoe isn’t just for your wet weather runs. It’s an entirely three-season capable trail runner.

What this means to you: Suddenly rain isn’t an excuse but a reason.
