What are the Salewa Pedroc 2?
The Salewa Pedroc 2 are built for moving fast and efficiently in the mountains. Designed for activities such as biking approaches, speed hiking, and alpine life, they sit in the sweet spot between a trail running shoe and a lightweight mountain shoe.
The focus is on agile movement, dependable traction, and long-lasting comfort over mixed terrain — from flowy trails to steeper, rockier sections where precision matters.
What are they made of?
High-Resistance Recycled Upper
The upper is constructed from high-resistance polyester, made from 100% recycled content. This material is designed to withstand abrasion from rocks, gravel, and trail debris while remaining lightweight and breathable.
It provides a secure wrap around the foot without feeling stiff, supporting both comfort and durability during extended use.
TPU Film Reinforcements
A TPU film overlay is used to reinforce key areas of the upper. This adds structure, improves durability in high-wear zones, and enhances foot stability without adding unnecessary bulk or weight.
Pomoca Speed Hiker 2 Outsole
The Pedroc 2 features a Pomoca Speed Hiker 2 outsole, developed to deliver reliable grip on a wide range of mountain surfaces. The tread pattern balances traction and smooth roll-off, making it well-suited to fast hiking, mixed trail running, and technical approaches where confidence on rock and hardpack is essential.
Salewa Dual-Density Recycled Footbed
A Salewa dual-density recycled footbed provides underfoot cushioning and support. The dual-density construction helps absorb impact while maintaining a responsive feel, supporting comfort over longer distances without sacrificing ground feedback.
What are their features?
Lightweight Cushioning
Designed to soften impact without feeling overly plush, the cushioning supports sustained movement while keeping the shoe agile and responsive.
Breathable Ventilation
The upper construction promotes airflow to help regulate temperature and moisture during high-output activity, keeping feet comfortable as intensity increases.
Climbing-Inspired Performance
The outsole design and overall stability give the Pedroc 2 confident edging and traction, making it suitable for steeper terrain and light scrambling where precise foot placement matters.
Balanced Cushioning and Drop
With a 10 mm drop, the Pedroc 2 offers a familiar and comfortable geometry that supports efficient forward movement. The cushioning is tuned to reduce fatigue while still allowing a stable, controlled feel on uneven terrain.
Lightweight Performance
At just 350 g per shoe (size UK 8), the Pedroc 2 keeps weight to a minimum. This lightweight build supports quick foot turnover and reduces leg fatigue during long or fast-paced outings.
