Comments about Salomon XT Wings GTX Trail-Running Shoes - Men's:
I'm a runner who logs 30 miles a week during the summer and go hiking on a semi-regular basis up hikes such as Granite Mountain, Lake Serene, and Mount Dickerman. These shoes are great for hikes and provide the traction needed through mud, over rocks, and water. They keep your feet toasty warm and dry which is great. They could use a little more ventilation but it is expected with Gore-Tex and a trade off needed in the wet northwest.
I also run half marathons regularly and enjoy these shoes as a trail runner or on gravel/dirt trails that I run my dog on. These shoes aren't a 100% road shoe obviously but if you run back and forth from trails to side walks to roads... these may be the shoes for you. Completely versatile and provide the stability for a flat footed person and cushioning for a heavy runner. I give these shoes 4 stars and they would have had 5 if they were perfect for trails and roads... but those are two different capabilities that I want in one shoe.
