Uncomfortable

Hiked a couple times in these. I just really don't know whose feet they're made for! They're super long, so the toe box fits like a clown shoe. The laces are just long enough to make me trip over myself but too short to wrap around the ankle before tying. I didn't feel a lot of arch support and my feet were hurting after a 2 hour hike. They're also pretty hot and slippery if you're walking in water or on rocks. // Pros are that the waterproofing works well and I guess the ankle is supported. // At the end of the day, I think instead of buying a pair of shoes online you ought to go to a physical store to see what actually works for you! Don't let branding or review websites get the best of you. Maybe I used them on the wrong terrain, maybe I didn't break them in enough, but even so I really can't see them ever growing on me with just how wonky the fit is in the first place.

Very Comfortable Hiking Boot

Love these hiking boots. Used them for a hike up Half Dome. They felt super supportive and the grip was very helpful.

My Muddy Day Shoe

They are as light as a trailrunner, but keep ot the mud and puddle water. I wear Altras, so prefer wide, and while these are not totally splayed-out-wide-barefoot style, there is plenty of room for my feet and my Injinji toe socks in there. I have used these in steep, scrabble alpine conditions, and hiking on simple snow patches. Great for both. We hike every weekend and backpack in summer, and I get about 3 years of good hiking use, then a few more as garden boots.

My Favorite

I have a wide toe box. I've tried other hiking shoes and I keep returning to this. Very comfortable, sturdy, great tread, and water resistant to walk through puddles. I always go up one full size so I can wear my wool socks in the winter.

Great Boot But Quick Wear Out

Great boot right out of the box! Always comfortable no break in time. I have previously purchased two pairs but unfortunately the boots only lasts me one summer/fall hiking season. I will be looking for a more durable boot for the up coming hiking season.

Very Comfy

I love this boot. It is very comfy and no break in was needed. They run a little big 1/2 - 1 whole size. I am getting a second pair!

Used To Be The Best Hiking Shoe..

I’ve been buying versions of this shoe for at least 10 years. It used to be made in a more durable and better looking leather version. Now they only make the cheaper synthetic version. Looking for a new brand of shoe now..

Very Pleased

Bought these boots to day hike. Very comfortable out of the box and no blisters. Lower ankle coverage than our other Salomon hiking boots but very pleased. Has a very aggressive tread and very comfortable.

Comfortable And Durable

I've had multiple pairs of these shoes and definitely put them through the wringer with my job. They've been extremely comfortable from day one and have hardly any break-in time. These don't last super long for me but I use them mainly as work shoes. These will last me anywhere between 6-8 months on the job through rigorous hosing, bleach, and a whole bunch of other chemicals so they definitely get their share of work. I switched to a different pair the last time I bought from here just to try something different but these will always be my go-to.

Too Big

I am usually a size 7 1/2 in US woman but not in these shoes! I tried on my size shoe and I felt like I had clown shoes on and made sure I didn't order the wrong size. Returned them and got a size 7 thinking that would be much better. Nope! Returned again and not sure if I want to risk a smaller size. I love this brand because of the quality and style shoe but somehow the sizing is way off on the mid hiking shoe.

Great Hiking Boots

I love these hiking boots! I’ve had them for years and they have held up so nicely. Also, my feet never hurt when breaking them in which is a huge plus.

Great Hiking Boots!!

I am really happy with these hiking boots. They are lightweight, comfortable and sturdy. I highly recommend them.

Run Huge

I’ve bought and returned these shoes twice now because these shoes run so big. As of now, I have a pair a size and a half smaller than my usual shoe size on its way. If these do not fit, I will be choosing another brand to buy from.

Waterproof Hiking Shoe

I was looking for a waterproof hiker so I ordered this shoe. It was too stiff and wide and didn’t have enough cushion. This shoe used to fit me better in the past. Not a good fit for me now. I wore the salomon x-ultra for many years that worked well. This is not the right shoe for me .

Perfect Hiking Shoe

Bought a 1/2 size up, have thick socks to wear. My running shoes are also a 1/2 size bigger. It was raining, lots of mud, slippery leaves, rocks and water. I did not slip, my feet are completely dry, no aches or blisters. The shoe performed perfectly. Perfered sock thickness is a factor to consider for size
