Salomon Men's X Ultra Pioneer Mid Climasalomon Waterproof Hiking Boot

Salomon are the most comfortable boots you can wear. I have worn them for 10 years and love them. I have noticed over the past few years that they wear out quicker than they should IMO. I use them a lot and in two years, they cracked at the sides where the ball of your foot flexes. In comes the water from the grass, rain. That said, I'm a fan and it's worth the cost.

I normally don’t write reviews, but these shoes are amazing! I am a big fan of Merrill shoe, but I thought I would give these Solomon shoes a try. I am glad I did.The sizing, comfort, weight, support and cushioning are top notch.The only question left is durability and even if they only last one year this purchase will be worth every penny!

Probably not fit for hardcore use, but my feet feel great even after working on my feet all day long, and using them for light hiking on the weekends as well.They don't last me any incredibly long time. After about a year they start wearing down a bit, but usually it's just the laces tearing and the sole losing some of its cushion. Overall pretty durable.As for weatherproofing and breathability, I wear them year round and they don't get TOO hot and sweaty on the summer, tho YMMV, and in the winter they're warm enough for casual New England hiking etc. Pretty good waterproofing, I walked through a flooded parking lot, maybe 3 inches of water, and came out just fine, even almost a year in on this pair.I think they might be discontinuing these so I'll grab a couple more and hope for the best in the future.

Ordered these hiking shoes for my upcoming elk hunt in Colorado. Arrived quickly and nicely packaged. I typical wear a 14 in tennis shoes and 14 in boots. I took the risk and purchased size 14Great looking hiking boot. Lined pretty well in the tongue to prevent water coming in. The size 14 fits well. I’ve yet to go on a hike and really test them out but from my experience with hiking boots, these are above par. For the sale price of less than 100, a great deal.Update- After a weekend of testing these boots out, I’m super happy with the purchase. Very comfortable and light weight boot. Ankle support is 5/10 but it’s much better than a regular tennis shoe and less than a bulky and heavy boot. The first trip was coyote hunting and it performed well.The second trip was fishing where I had a to get the boot submerged over a majority of the boot. Feet never got wet. 10/10.My feet do tend to sweat at times during warmer days. These boots must provide some airflow because it occurred less.

These shoes are great! This is my second pair of the mid ankle height and I’ve ordered the lower cut also in the past. They are light weight, pretty water resistant, very comfortable and most importantly they last quite a long time without loosing any stitching or coming apart.

Update after 6 months of use:The sole has stared separating from the upper after just 6 months of mild use. Did not expect such poor quality from Salomon. There is no warranty on these shoes in Amazon, so please use your discretion before buying.Review after 1 weekThe shoes look great and have excellent quality as expected from Salomon. The shoes were shipped in original packaging with all labels attached. The upper material is textile and full grain leather, not the lower-quality PU-coated leather.I have used the shoes for hiking short distances in tropical locations and they were comfortable with good grip on wet surfaces and provide very stable foothold and ankle support. There were no abrasive areas. Even in the hot weather, my feet did not feel hot or sweaty so the membrane seems to be breathable.The sole does not flex much, and the ankle area is fairly firm. Overall it provides good foot and ankle support without impacting ankle movement.The shoes require break-in. They are also snug around the toes so i suggest going for wide size shoes if your feet are wide.Overall very satisfied with the product, the seller, and the price. These shoes seem to be excellent value for money.

Poor Quality Boots & Terrible Return ExperienceReview:These boots are junk. They run extremely small and are uncomfortable right out of the box. While shipping was fast (they arrived in less than 24 hours and my card was charged immediately), everything after that has been a nightmare. I returned the boots over two weeks ago and the company still hasn’t received them. Now I have to wait another two weeks just to maybe get my money back. That’s over a month tied up for a pair of poorly made boots I can’t even wear. The return process and customer service are awful. I would not recommend buying these boots unless you’re 100% sure you’ll keep them.

I have worn Soloman's for years, but my last two pairs of hikers I bought were simply because I got them for an extremely low price. I am extremely satisfied to pay a little more for the superior quality, weight, fit, and comfort.
