I'm on my feet 90% of the day running two businesses and find this shoe the absolute most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. The size was true to what I ordered. If more were available, I would certainly order another pair.

Excellent versatile hiking Shoe

Very comfortable and versatile hiking shoe. Used it for hiking 14ers in Colorado, Mt Kilimanjaro and Grand Canyon rim to rim. Excelled in all kinds of terrain and technical hikes. Comfortable enough that they can be worn for casual winter wear.

Comfortable but not durable

Bought these and right out of the box they were comfortable, no break in period. Went out the following week with friends and did a light hike in the mountains. After 1 hike, the sole was breaking along the tang where the heel meets the arch. Would not use these on any hard rock hikes. Maybe good for the pedestrian paved trails or soft dirt. Kept these for decent pair of winter boots over the past two years with occasional hikes.

Great hiking boots for me

Initially I was irritated that the size 13 wide was not available when looking to upgrade from my Merrell boots, but after trying some Keen (too squishy), La Sportiva (too narrow), and Lowa (too heavy) boots, I finally found these in stock and picked them up in the spring of 2022. They were comfortable out of the box, break in was super easy, and now I have worn them for miles of spring practice hikes in the Appalachians, summer vacation to Rocky Mountain NP, casual weekend adventures, and more, and I could not be more happy with them. I am over 250 lbs. and pretty heavy on my feet, and these offer plenty of padding and plenty of support for easy hiking and quick downhills on the rocky trails. I have been having difficulty finding comfortable shoes since I started having to buy wide size, and Brooks Ghost running shoes and these boots are all I wear now. I pair them with Weatherproof wool blend socks when its cold, and ordinary Hanes X-Temp athletic socks when hot or normal, and my feet are comfortable and not too hot to cold or sweaty. Never a blister or anything. Offers great traction in everything I have walked through, from dry sandy Colorado trails, snow banks, muddy trails on the AT in Virginia, and everything else. The included laces are even pretty good. I'm a 5 star man, and I give these boots 5 stars too.

Solomon’s boots

Pleased with the overall look and construction of these. Only minor thing is takes some time to break in on the top and bunion area of my feet.

The ONLY day-boot ... to own!

IMO ... THIS is the ONLY day-boot to own. I have been wearing Salomons (exclusively) for years and THIS boot is AS GOOD AS IT GETS! It would be a HUGE shame IF ... they ever discontinue ... the model.

Not a Happy Customer

I experienced poor performance of this shoe. Sole and uppers not supportive enough. Too flexible and soft. Can't walk on rocky areas due to lack of sole stiffness. Uppers collapse while I try to slide my foot in. Feet feel tired compared to my previous Salomon models. I consider myself an ex-customer. Fit is good.

Most comfortable boots I have owned

Boots are comfortable and long lasting. My feet are EEE and the boots provide enough width that I feel no crowding on my feet. They provide good foot and ankle support, as well as adequate traction when hiking/hunting. I bought my first pair in early 2019 and wear the boots almost daily. Treadwear is highly acceptable given the fact that wear the boots daily. The old boots are being retired into a work boot roll and the new boots will become the new daily wear boots. I highly recommend these boots!

Very comfortable

This is a great boot, and themost comfortable i have had in years. I don't need arch supports or anything - it's great as is. This is a continuation of my purchases of this boot. I love it so much that this is the only boot i wear. i bought 3-4 in prior years, but with COVID, these were out of stock for a year and it was difficult to find a comparable replacement. I'm glad they are back.
