Purchased these shoes to climb one of the seven summits. They seem very comfortable from the get-go, no break-in required. Ample support and adequate sole stiffness. Almost perfect approach shoe. The trouble started after the first drizzle hit the trail. After only 5 minutes of walking, I have noticed dark spots around the connection between the upper and lower part of the shoe and after 10 minutes the entire GORE-TEX portion of the shoe was soaking wet with a noticeable decrease of the insulation properties as my feet started to get colder. These shoes are not waterproof they are not even water-resistant in my opinion. I would not recommend Salomon Cross Hike GTX Low Hiking shoes if there is any chance of rain in your hiking forecast.
I bought these for backpacking. On day two out on my first trip, my foot punched a hole through the Gortex upper of the toe box. I do have wide feet; but it seems like a pair of shoes should last more than 48 hours. I also found these shoes to be very heavy and not at all breathable. My feet were sweaty the whole trip, and I ended up with blisters. The tread on the bottoms is very good.
My other Salomon shoe is a size 9. With this model, size 9 felt a little bit crowded in the toe box so I went to a size 9.5 and that felt better. Love the aggressive treads for walking in winter. With the gore Tex the shoe can get hot while wearing indoors.
Great shoe, good traction, and secure footing. Light and very comfortable. Looks good, feels good.
Shoe was comfortable and great to wear at the start. After almost 8 months of usage, the inner sole now keeps slipping out. After a couple of months the shoe laces wore thin
Expensive and crap. Not to the standard Salomon sizing, uncomfortable. Worst Salomon shoe I've ever purchased (and I have had 10-15 pairs of Salomon shoes over many years)
Great shoes, this is tenth pair of Salomon’s they are indestructible, I wouldn’t buy anything else.
Awesome service quick delivery, shoe comfy as…very happy
