Salming HAWK - Dominate the Court!
The latest addition to Salming’s performance indoor shoe range is launched in specialty stores across Europe on the 24th of May. Salming Hawk is a well cushioned energy return shoe with a low profile and an excellent grip. The Hawk has been developed together with some of the best athletes in the world in the sports operated by Salming - handball, floorball, squash and volleyball.
Tobias Karlsson, Team Captain and left back court in the german Bundesliga team SG Flensburg-Handewitt and Olympic Silver medalist in London 2012:
”Throughout the years I have had problems related to my feet, if you add the way I play and my responsibility on court - I need a shoe I can trust. Hawk is such a shoe - great cushioning with an equally great fit that provides excellent support - I can really recommend this shoe”
Robin Nilsberth, defender Storvreta IBK, IFF World Champion and two times Swedish SSL Champion:
“The rare combo of great forefoot cushioning combined with stability during my lateral movements plus an excellent grip and feel for the floor makes this shoe my choice”
Dominate the court in these men’s handball shoes. Salming Hawk features a low to ground profile fuelled with energy, stability and an impeccable grip. The ExoSkeleton inner cage is connected to the lacing system and offers excellent support. The HexaGrip outsole featuring the two LMSplus areas allows for stability during multidirectional movements. The new midsole Energy Rebound Foam - Recoil ERF - with its added offset cushioning heel area (SoftFOAM) provide energy return and comfort in every step. The upper is a 3 layer construction with air mesh for maximum breathability.
