That mono upper with lacing system is wild. Great review Steven. If it preformed well for you in that race that says a lot. Would love to see the comparison between the two Pulsars.
Thanks man. Comparison video will definitely be coming.
Nice review - looking forward to the comparison. Love my Trail Pros and have got 400km+ in mine already.... Only minor issue I have is with the low quality / very thin insole that sometimes slips around.
Thanks for sharing!
My absolute favorite shoes love it 💯
They are great!
I have run 300km in Pulsar Trail Pros. Wide and chunky midsole doesn't offer that much agility or ground feel on tricky trails but on the other hand is pretty comfortable on hard packed trails and roads.
Upper is great! Lacing with the pocket, collar, heel and midfoot lockdown are spot on. Toe box could be foot shaped though...
Good deal!
That narrow medial arch scares me with my Sasquatch width feet. They help with walking on Canadian snow but they are terrible for shoe selection.
Thanks for the review!
Yeah if you have wide feet, these prob wouldn’t work. Not sure if they have them in a wide. Thanks!
My go to trail shoes have been the Salomon Sense Ride for years. In the Salomon lineup they are a little bit more accomodating than most shoes. That being said, I recently decided to give the Norda 001 a try. They are a Canadian company (based in Montreal) and that shoe, while more expensive, is amazing! Even though they are more expensive, the materials used should make them much more durable than most shoes. Anyway, maybe worth looking into them! The fit is much more accomodating than the Salomon Pulsar Trail (have not tried the pro) without being "altra wide" either.
Thanks for the review! It’s tricky to get a good idea of which of all the new plated trail shoes is any good and may work for me personally… My favorite trail shoes of the past year have been the Sense Pro 4 and the S/Lab Ultra 3. They beat the Ultraglide for almost all types of runs for me! Considering picking up the Pulsar Trail or the Pulsar Trail Pro. Would you advice one over the other based on the above preferences? I intend to use them for longer runs and maybe races.
My favorite is the Pulsar Trail. It just fits my foot so perfectly and is one of the most comfortable uppers ever (a bit warm though). I did a mountain 100k in the Pulsar Trail and didn't have a single hot spot!
@@UltraTrailSteven thanks a lot!!
Oooo I got some catching up to do!
“Voluminous foot”
Word of the day. Voluminous. lol
NICE VIDEO BRO . COOL
Thanks
Sierra has these for $69.99 atm, think I may snag a pair for dry-weather hiking.
Thats a great price!
Geartrade had a pair for $46. My problem is the one piece upper. My trails are super technical, thought I would die in speed goats-haha.
For Ga the normal pulsar might be to hot.
Have a pair of sense pro 4’s but about 1/2 size long.
But no size up/down in these.
Wish Salomon could get the sizes right
I hope they workout for you! I am not a fan of one piece uppers.
thank for best review~ which is best for compare pulsar pro or s/lab genesis?
I have not tried the s/lab Genesis yet, but it does look great. I’m not a big fan of the Pulsar Trail Pro.
I will be running the BFC next month. Any advice on where to stay with the family? I got started late finding places to stay. This is my first 50k.
I would check the BFC Facebook group as people post up about cancelled lodging. Might be able to grab one.
Thanks for the response. I got rid of Facebook 8 years ago haha. About the time I got off active duty with the Army.
What about the non-pro Pulsar? You still like them? Your review mentioned you’d loop back after many miles.
Yep. Like I mentioned in this rear, the Pulsar Trail is probably my favorite trail shoe ever.
nice! i own one too. do you think its perfect to use on a beach marathon? 😊 thanks!
Not for me personally
I own the Pulsar Trail and really like them, BUT grip is subpar, especially when wet, if slightly muddy the mud clogs for ages. So basically a nice weather shoe (breathibility is quite muted though) for medium technical as the grip on loose staff is also only so so. And I changed the quick laces for traditional laces and create a heel lock using the last hole for the Loop also (using same hole for "Out and back in", much better heel now. Maybe grip and breathability are better with the Pro, according to reviews the grip isn't. Just give me the upper and outsole of the Sense Ride 3 with the midsole of the Pulsar Trail and I will buy this shoe forever...
Interesting. I’ve had good success with the grip on a variety of terrain and conditions.
@@UltraTrailSteven word is that the Salomon Contragrip is much more appreciated in US than here in Europe...quite a view critical voices on especially wet grip, not too bad but nowhere near Vibram, Continental..
@@Thefifaplayeryant interesting point! Definitely as grippy as the vibram megagrip, or even the lightbase.
What about pronation? I havle always felt the sense ride like they force me to pronate a bit more.
Hmm I don’t think I felt that with these
Do you think its good for running in dry sandy dunes?
Probably. Might want to add an actual gaiter for that much sand.
Can you compare this with Saucony Xodus Ultra?
Once I get the chance to test the Xodus Ultra.
@@UltraTrailSteven Okay. Now that you have reviewed both... Is the Xodus Ultra still the best trail runner of 2022? Or is there another shoe you'd choose?
@@genslinton Well I’m still testing the Xodus ultra. But I said the Pulsar Trail what is the best trail shoe of 2022 in my opinion
50 Km yes, longer ? Had to heel tape.
Well I wore them for a 12 hour race (58.4 miles), so yes. I pretaped the heel. Not sure I needed to though, but better safe than sorry.
