SALOMON clothing hiking 2018: AlpinStore selection

Want to go for a long hike or a short summer walk in the mountains? We understand: the pleasure begins as soon as you are well equipped. Here we speak clearly and fairly. Since 2016, AlpinStore tests and selects the best for enthusiasts. On this page, we review the SALOMON 2018 range designed for hiking: cuts, materials, uses, and practical advice to ensure your outing goes smoothly.

The SALOMON 2018 selection focuses on versatility and performance. If you are looking for technical outdoor clothing

(integrated phrase above), you will find lightweight, breathable, and durable pieces designed to move for long periods without compromising comfort. We detail the tops, bottoms, and mid-layers that make a difference when the elevation increases.

The tops: support, breathability, versatility

The medium impact bra is designed for dynamic outings: adjustable support, seamless structure, targeted ventilation. It is lightweight and allows for breathability when you accelerate: perfect for quick sessions or busy days filled with kilometers. The stroll t-shirt, made from AdvancedSkin, offers quick drying and a clean fit, ideal for long hikes where humidity changes quickly.

The explore t-shirt plays the card of urban and mountain comfort: cotton touch, very lightweight, and treated to limit odors. You can wear it all day, from the trailhead to the terrace of the refuge. These tops are designed to move, breathe, and be easily maintained.

Windproof and softshell layers: technical protection

For mid-seasons, the agile wind jacket for women is a water-repellent windbreaker designed for short efforts and daily use. If you want to choose a women's trail jacket, start by defining the use: short and dynamic outing, or long and variable hike? The cut, weight, and pockets make the difference.

The right nice softshell and stretch coat add versatility: one part waterproof, another elastic for mobility. MotionFit and hybrid construction love technical terrains: protection on the exposed part, elasticity where you bend your knees.

The bottoms: freedom of movement

The wayfarer pants are a good example: lightweight, robust, quick-drying, UPF50 sun protection, and stretch material for easy climbing on ledges. Available in a convertible version to turn your pants into shorts depending on the weather. For families, also consider children's summer pants: comfort and durability are essential when the little ones are going down slopes and playing with stones.

These bottoms hold up on rocky and stony paths: strategically placed seams to avoid chafing, integrated belts, and accessible pockets even while moving.

Why SALOMON 2018 remains relevant

The collection focuses on user experience: breathability, weight, compression, and ease of maintenance. The technical fabrics extend comfort and reduce the impact of bad weather. And if your budget is tight, we also offer options for affordable hiking gear tested to maintain a good quality/price ratio.

Expert buying advice

We first advise you to define your use: short hike, alpine, itinerant, or trek? Then, choose in order of importance: rain protection, breathability, and freedom of movement. For mid-layers, prioritize moisture wicking and quick drying.

If you want to stay stylish on a short outing, some models flirt with the urban side and can also fit into a more city-oriented wardrobe: yes, there are women's fashion clothing designed for effort without sacrificing aesthetics.

Accessories and preparation

Choosing your hiking accessories is often what transforms a good outing into a worry-free outing: suitable socks, sun protection, poles when the terrain is technical, and a small repair kit. We recommend testing your bag and shoes on a day before heading out for three days of autonomy.

The checklist: a lightweight windbreaker, a compressible warm layer, water and snacks, a survival blanket, and a minimal first aid kit. Consider signaling and weather: two elements that often save you from cold sweats.

For families and children

The collection includes robust pieces for the youngest: we are talking about children's winter jacket collection that insulate while remaining mobile. Parents often prioritize fit and durability: reinforced seams, materials less sensitive to snags, and reinforced areas on the knees or elbows.

Keep in mind that children's needs evolve quickly: investing in adjustable cuts and easy-to-wash fabrics saves time and money.

Technique and durability

At AlpinStore, we like to combine technicality and environmental responsibility. High-performance pieces must last. In practice, technical hiking clothing is designed to resist abrasion, dry quickly, and allow the body to breathe to avoid hypothermia from cooled sweat.

We also prioritize repairability: simple repairs, spare parts when possible, and maintenance advice to extend the life of the clothing.
