Salomon S/LAB Ultra Glide: building consensus — a public grade is not available yet; synthesized so far from 1 review across 1 creator, freshest review Aug 16, 2026.
TL;DR
The Salomon S/LAB Ultra Glide is a legitimately improved version of an already max-cushion long-distance trail shoe, but the $90 premium over the regular Ultra Glide is a tough sell. It's a considered upgrade for those who want the best-feeling version and can absorb the cost, not an obvious pick for value-conscious runners.

The cited creator reviews, watchable — press play to jump to the moment each one informed the verdict.
“I like the S/Lab now that I've run in it better than the regular. I just don't know if I like it enough. If I was purchasing my own pair to spend the extra 90 bucks on it. Um but for what it's worth, I do think it's better.”
“we updating also the Ultra Glide. So you know this this is a product that launched in spring 25. And here again we keep the the volume the same. And the idea is that it's the shoe you're going to use for the long distance. Uh when you want a max comfort, max cushion”
How much the creator economy weighed this — distinct from the verdict, never folded into it.
Yeah is still building enough review evidence to publish a grade.

“I think of the Salomon S-Lab Ultra Glide series. Over the course of just a couple years, they came out with four different iterations.”
“Salomon lists this at 41/35, same as the S/LAB Ultra Glide, which I have. I did confirm that measurement at 41/35”
“the S-Lab, uh, Ultra Glide”
“the Mont Blanc Ultra Coast M1 and the Salomon Ultra Glide or S-Lab Ultra Glide 2 that are able to achieve a really lightweight fit and feel as well”
