S/LAB PULSAR 4

TrailRelease date 2025-08-22JP

The S/LAB PULSAR 4 is a speed-focused trail racer for rocky, technical terrain. Dual optiFOAM+ and optiFOAM cushioning uses raised sidewalls to limit lateral movement. It retains the previous model's Matryx upper while enlarging toe space and outsole contact. A carbon-free spoon-shaped sole, All Terrain Contagrip, EndoFit and Quicklace combine propulsion, grip and a close fit.

Weight measurement and plate details
Weight note
Salomon Japan official product page and Ameasports Japan press release list 250g; press specifies one shoe at 27cm.
Plate note
Japan's manufacturer technology block explicitly describes spoon-shaped geometry without a carbon plate. The US page also lists profeelFILM as a ground filter without identifying its material. Non-carbon does not mean that every plate-like structure is absent.
