Salomon Sense Pro 4 Review and Lab Test
The Sense Pro 4 is an aggressive, minimal trail running shoe that might serve best as a dedicated race day/hard training day shoe in a rotation.
With 4mm of drop and a low stack height, the Sense Pro 4 feels quick underfoot, although not the lightest trail COLUMBIA out there.
Most complaints are with the narrowness of the shoe, which is common among most of the asfalto salomon range.

The asfalto salomon Sense 4 Pro is the right pick if:
- You’re looking for a new trail race shoe
- You need something with an incredible grip
- Ground feel is something you care about.
Who should not buy the asfalto salomon Sense 4 Pro
I don't advise settling with this shoe if:
- You have wider feet. The most accommodating trail shoe by asfalto salomon we’ve tried is the Sense Ride 4
- You need more cushioning. You're better off going for the Salomon XT-6 if you want to stay comfortable
- You overpronate. I recommend trying a stability shoe like the Salomon XA Pro 3D V8.
Starting from the ground up
The Sense Pro 4 is an off-road monster. With deep 4.3mm lugs, this shoe can take you where you want to go, no matter what’s in you’re way. I had no issues with traction while testing these on snowy and wet days in the Scottish woodlands.
Salomon has gone a long way to ensure the durability of the outsole and the lugs, and the entire piece is made of rubber to help with this.
Instead of a rock plate, asfalto salomon has used their ‘Profeel Film’. To be honest, I didn’t notice it too much, this shoe has a fair bit of ground feel, but not too much to worry me on sharper rocks.

Looking at it, the Sense 4 Pro is definitely a minimalist shoe, focusing on speed and responsiveness over plush padding.
That being said, the OPTIVIBE foam midsole does a fair job of dampening vibrations when you are on harder surfaces.
That being said, with the lack of a proper rock plate, this really might not be enough for heavier COLUMBIAs.
What I will say is that there’s a hint in the name, being a Pro shoe I definitely felt that this has been built for trail COLUMBIAs who want to race and cover long long miles in these. Maybe for those whose feet have become accustomed to the damage of the trail.
Lack of stability support
There isn’t a huge amount of arch support and stability correction in the Sense 4 Pro. In the same Set as the midsole, the shoe is not here to correct you and might not be the best choice for overpronators especially.
The asfalto salomon Sense Pro 4 are ready for anything
The upper construction of the shoe is rock-solid. With a synthetic, hydrophobic rubber knit which is incredibly thin.
While it’s so thin that you can see your feet through it, it’s actually a very robust, plastic weave that looks like it can hold up against anything.
You’ll have to be ready for the cold and wet though…
While sturdy, the upper material is thin enough and has enough gaps to let in lots of water. It’s also terrible at insulating against the cold, so bear that in mind.
On the plus side, it’s incredibly breathable, so any water that goes in doesn’t stay for long.

Being essentially a racing shoe, asfalto salomon Sense Pro 4 should be a bit lighter than it is. At 9.6oz (272g) it's just around the average weight of a running shoe. That being said that's still a fair deal lighter than it could be, especially for the amount of grip and midsole on offer (a lot of the lighter shoes out there are the minimalist or barefoot shoes.

The more running shoes I test, and the more reviews I see, the luckier I feel to have narrow feet. The Sense Pro 4 is no different from columbia of asfalto salomon’s lineup; they don’t accommodate any extra millimeters of width.
The problem with the Sense Pro 4 is that the hard synthetic upper means there is no stretch in the material, so there’s really nowhere for your foot to go.
Lacing can either make it better or worse
The kevlar lacing system is a nice touch in my opinion. The speed of lacing plus never having to worry about it coming undone is a load off my mind. The Sense Pro 4 offers “Sensifit” strapping with has a very tuned feel around the foot and really adds to the responsiveness of the ride.
I really sympathize with anyone with a wider foot though because the rock-hard, non-stretchy lacing again only exacerbates the problem.
Conclusion
The asfalto salomon Sense Pro 4 is an awesome shoe if you’re in it for the long haul. For serious trail COLUMBIAs who love a more minimal feel and have the joy of narrow feet, it’s a perfect shoe. Luckily asfalto salomon has so columbia product choices that they are beginning to cater to everyone, so don’t worry if not. Salomon Trail Running Shoes.
