After only 2 months of light use, the shoelaces started to saw itself through the eyes. According to a salesman this is a recurring problem due to the material of the laces, which is very strong, but too abrasive.
Thank you for reaching out and for the feedback on the product. We are very sorry for the experience that you have had with us. A member of our team will contact you shortly to discuss your experience and help you further with the issue.
I found these to be really comfortable and great for every day wear. I think the Gore Tex hinders breathability in particularly hot weather but not to the point where they were uncomfortable. I was in love, until after having them for just 10 weeks in I noticed some of the fabric starting to tear away on both shoes. I’ve only used them for walking around cities, no running, no challenging weather conditions, so this was particularly disappointing. For the price point I’d appreciate a more durable shoe and will shop elsewhere for my next pair!

I bought these about a month ago. I bought an earlier version of this model about three years ago and have just about worn the soles smooth. I had no problems whatsoever. I’m sold on the lacing system which was new to me at the time. The Goretex held up well. They were great, and this latest rendition seems just as well made. The sizing on all the Solomons I’ve owned has been outstanding, very comfortable after a short break-in. (I hiked the Camino de Santiago in a pair of Salomon boots and was blister-free.) The sole grip is excellent. I trust Salomon.
I bought these sneakers as a gift for my boyfriend, and they turned out to be perfect. The sizing was spot-on, true to the fit, and he said they felt super comfortable and lightweight from the moment he put them on. I got them for him because he had an upcoming trip to do the Machu Picchu trek in Peru, and he told me they were absolutely the best shoes he could’ve taken. Against all odds—rain, sun, and tons of mud—his feet stayed dry and comfortable the entire time. He never experienced any pain or discomfort. Highly, highly recommend these sneakers!
I used the Ultra 4 for a couple years. They're not like any shoe I've ever owned. I travel all over the world and can wear a shoe to death. What I find most fascinating is the shoe grip... or maybe feel. It's like being barefoot with a shoe on. The grip is great. They're so light, it feels like the box is empty when they arrive. But after a while, it's hard to wear anything else. I bought a pair for my daughter and she's been a Salomon fan ever since. The only other Salomon product I've ever had were ski boots. Loved those too.
Comfortable, but more suitable for a stroll than a hike. By which I mean that they are quite trainer-like, the soles too soft and flexible to provide good support for an all-day walk on rough ground. And, while they look quite smart when new, a couple of outings walking in muddy conditions has a big impact on the appearance of those pale uppers. I bought these shoes ten months ago, have not walked more than a couple of hundred miles in them, yet they been letting in water for the last three months.

These look and feel narrow; I am UK 9 and found that 9.5 was still a bit too tight (length was fine). After 4 weeks in Central America I have come to the conclusion these are great shoes; they can be worn with the laces really loose if on say plane. Just lean down and pull them secure and they firm up across your foot width. I have a feeling that a bit more wearing in and they will become my favorite shoe. Just do not wear them straight away for a long walk; it will end in tears.
Comfortable, looks great, and decently waterproof. Why did I still rate this only 3 out of 5 stars? The shoes are sturdy and durable. However, the eyelets that secure the lacing are the weak link. I bought a pair in November 2024 and they’ve already failed me. These were my favorite pair of Salomon’s I’ve owned until this happened. Thought about buying a new pair thinking I might’ve gotten a bad pair until I saw other reviews saying they’ve run into the same problem as I have.
Comfortable supportive hiking shoe and the closest yet to my (very) old favorite, X ultras. Moderate use in urban and National Forest trails, so having the eyelet fail after less than a year (and rendering the lacing system useless) was a disappointment. beige color scheme showed dirt and since its a Gore-Tex shoe in Pacific Northwest, its going to be in the mud. Still looking for a current model as nice as the old X Ultra

Took a good week of wear to break in. The uppers were stiff and creased very uncomfortably for a good while, and are still less comfortable than the X-Ultra 4s. But the tongue design is much better than that found on the X-Ultra, showing you to slip on the shoe very easily - just like the old design. A bigger range of colours would have been ideal.
