The Salewa Lite Train Women is a trailrunning and training shoe designed for alpine terrain. Built for women’s feet in a regular fit, it’s a non-waterproof model that focuses on breathability and agility during active sessions in mountain environments.
Weighing in at just 220 grams per shoe, the Lite Train keeps fatigue low on longer runs and workouts. Its non-waterproof construction allows for better airflow, helping feet stay cooler when you’re pushing pace. The 6 mm heel drop strikes a balance between cushioning and a more grounded feel, supporting a responsive ride on uneven ground.
A 6 mm heel drop refers to the difference in height between the heel and the forefoot. This moderate drop encourages a midfoot landing, which can promote a more natural stride and reduce stress on the calves and Achilles tendon compared to higher-drop designs.
