Awesome all-terrain shoes, waterproof aspect is great. Used these on my first Camino de Santiago and were comfortable. The only thing I changed and why they dont get 5 stars is the insole. Its very slim, could use more cushion and should be a little better developed but all around great hiking / outdoor shoe!

I'm on my second pair of Speedcross Gore-Tex shoes. I'm convinced there is no better rugged and waterproof trail running shoe out there. It's the only one I want to wear—except that the 6 has been out for too long. Bring out the 7 already!

Never purchased Salomon foot wear before, but these speedcross are perfect for off road walking. Very comfortable and easy to wear. Completed multiple 20+ mile walks and my feet didn’t ache or blister.

Amazing durability .My previous one lasted 4 years.I have used those ,on daily basis, to run in the deserts of Doha.

Superb grip, waterproof, super comfortable. Very impressed… and they look really good, put 10mi in a day hiking dense forest and muddy terrain i was shocked after experiencing the performance worth the price
Jordan
I find these fit quite well. Definitely one of Salomon's wider shoes. They're very comfortable for me, and I have a hard time finding wide shoes that fit!
Raul Marchorro
I absolutely love these sneakers! They’re lightweight and really comfortable, especially for walking. I love the soft material, the cushioned sole, and the simple design. They fit true to size and feel supportive without being too tight. The quality is great for the price, and I’d definitely buy them again!
Raul Marchorro
They look great and definitely do what they’re supposed to. I really like the color, and the fact that they’re waterproof is a huge plus. They’re comfortable, look great, and work really well for hiking and outdoor use. Overall, I’m very happy with them.
There’s no explanation for the fact of comfort and happiness when you are using those shoes

This is my 4th pair of Speedcross 6 GTX. They are wonderful trail shoes, that I use as a daily shoe. The only downside is, that the sole wears out relatively fast.

I am a recreational road racer that has one XC Race lined up so I bought these shoes. I really like the lacing system as it is easier to use then string laces. I also like the aggressive tread for good control on muddy trails. I will mainly be using them for day hikes and they are really good for that.
Erik
It is simply the best shoe I have ever worn. It fits snugly without being tight. The fit and finish of the shoe are exemplary. The sole could likely grip a vertical wall...
Peter
Light, waterproof and very good grip. These shoes are a must for active hikers.
Mashelle
This is my first pair of 6 GTX. I’ve had several other brands of hiking shoes and none compare to these. I took them hiking on uneven, slippery, sandy, rocky terrain for several days and the foot support and traction were amazing. I have a weak knee and without these shoes I don’t think I would have been able to hike the hills and terrain I did. Very happy with this purchase.

When this first launched I bought my first pr because it was waterproof. I lived in NJ and MA where weather or trails included snow and rain. THIS SHOE IS WATER TIGHT! The last was perfect for my high arch as 9.5 was perfect pr after pr ALWAYS A PERFECT FIT! I move a lot and hike THE TREAD HAS GREAT TRACTION ON SLIPPERY MUD SLOPES, WET GRASS & GRAVEL. The TOE GUARD SAVES ON SUBURBAN ROOT HEAVED SIDEWALKS AND ROOTS ON TRAILS and SPEED LACES SAVE ME TIME AND NEVER SLIP. I have bought 11 pairs and THIS IS WHAT I WEAR MORE THAN ANY OTHER FOOTWEAR.
