AERO BLAZE 4
AERO BLAZE 4 is a lightweight road trainer for everyday miles and sessions that pick up the pace.

An optiFOAM² midsole and Reverse Camber geometry support cushioned rebound and quick transitions, while zoned Road contaGRIP balances traction and durability on hard, flat surfaces.

Weight measurement and plate details
- Weight note
- The registered 227 g value is converted from the 8 oz per-unit weight on Salomon's US men's page. The exact Japan women's page lists 204 g; it is retained as gender/SKU-specific regional context rather than replacing the men's representative value.
- Plate note
- Salomon US's exact product page gives a detailed construction specification including optiFOAM², Reverse Camber, Road contaGRIP, and a rubber outsole, with no carbon structure identified. Under the current classification policy, carbon_plate is false.
