The launch of the all new Vezor shoe marks a new era for mountain sports brand ROSSIGNOL and another step forward in its diversification strategy, extending into every season and facet of mountain sports and lifestyle. Following the launch of recent spring summer collections including technical clothing, mountain bikes, and hiking footwear, Rossignol has launched its first trail-running collection for 2025, spearheaded by the unveiling of its flagship trail run shoe, the Vezor.
Complementing the brand’s multi-season, multi-activity offer, the new collection has been developed with the same expertise and technicality that’s made Rossignol a global reference in winter sports equipment for over a century.
Representing the culmination of three-years of R&D work and in-depth field testing, the Vezor has been ‘thoughtfully designed with a perfect balance of precision, grip, and propulsive performance to carry committed trail runners across the most rugged and technical terrain.’
For 117 years, performance has been part of Rossignol’s DNA. The French brand’s history has been marked by decades of competitive victories, technological innovations, and iconic products. These successes have been made possible due to the brand’s fine-tuned development process and recognised expertise in foot mechanics, on display in its workshop in Montebelluna, Italy.
All the know-how of the Rossignol R&D department has been harnessed to create the brand’s new range of trail running shoes. Design. Test. Repeat. Each step forward validated by feedback from an international team of field testers.
Guilhem Boussaroque, Product Line Manager – Trail Running, said, “With the Vezor, we are offering a comfortable, precise shoe with effective and highly responsive cushioning, for long, fast-paced runs on technical trails. Its design is inspired by the morphological structure of the dragonfly’s wings, combining lightness, comfort and stability during rapid changes of direction. The fusion of our new, ultra-resilient nitrogen-injected foam and our Diapazon+ technology gives the Vezor the perfect balance of energy return and stability.
“Exclusively designed and engineered for Rossignol, the Michelin sole features the motorsport development-inspired Formula technology to ensure flawless grip on all terrains. Ideal for medium distances, the Vezor will be an ally of choice for committed trail runners, accompanying them in training sessions and high-intensity races. Its neon red colour alludes to Rossignol’s heritage and performance-oriented DNA.”
Vincent Wauters, President/CEO of Rossignol Group, added, “At Rossignol, we’re mountain enthusiasts with a fascination for performance and pushing our limits. Our aim is to provide the best possible solutions for all aspects of mountain sport, and we are committed to developing technical solutions to make the mountains and wide-open spaces accessible to everyone, from enthusiastic amateurs to accomplished athletes.“
