Salomon is a brand well-known for making tough, lightweight, and high-performing gear in the running, skiing, and hiking industries. Thankfully, you don’t need to a be an ultra-athlete to wear their gear on your next outdoor adventure. Salomon shoes, boots, and clothing make great travel apparel as they are made to withstand the toughest abuse. I’ve picked out a few of my favorite items that would make a perfect companion on your next overland trip. You can shop the rest of the Salomon Cyber Week Sale here!

Quest 4D 3 GTX Hiking Boots
Salomon hiking boots, especially the models available with GoreTex (GTX) are extremely tough. You will find these boots near the top of every “Top Hiking Boot” list you can find. The GoreTex insulation means that this boot is waterproof for all of the river and stream crossings you don’t necessarily plan on taking. The Contagrip TD tread provides gripping lugs with superior cushioning.

Essential Lightwarm MidLayer Jacket
Whether you are running an ultra-marathon or simply zipping down to Baja for some beach camping, layers are important. The Essential Lightwarm is a 100% polyester full-zip jacket that is ideal for active travel in most environments. The thin design keeps you warm but isn’t bulky when you need to add layers or pack the jacket away as the day warms up.

Salomon Speedcross 5
Arguably one of the most popular and well-reviewed trail shoes of all time, the Speedcross line from Salomon is rugged and grippy for optimal performance in less than ideal conditions. The Quicklace system allows for quick on and off and easy adjustment on the trail. The mesh outer allows optimum airflow while keeping debris from reaching your feet.

XA 25 Hiking bag
Most of us carry a small day-pack or hiking backpack with us on vehicle-based adventures and the XA-25 is a great candidate for truck-bag duty. This ultra-light backpack boasts 25 liters of capacity with a simple to use and zipper-free roll top closure. Despite the snug fit, the XA-25 has an elastic sternum strap and Salomon’s Sensifit technology to hold the load steady while you are allowed to move. Front hydration storage pockets make accessing your water or beverage simple and trouble free.
