I bought these 2 days before I hiked Ben Nevis, was hoping to break them in prior but stupidly didn’t make time. Dreading blisters and soreness I still wore them on the hike but to my surprise I made it back down with NO blisters, NO soreness and a smile on my face. Comfiest hiking boots I’ve ever owned. I bought my usual size and they fit perfect.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fantastic soooo nice 👌 best foot wear I’ve ever had love them
Great waterproof shoes, comfortable, good ankle support, grippy tread, and they look great!
Solid hiking shoes. Light, comfortable, stylish, good friction on rocks
The only reason I did not give these boots five ★'s is the collar ate a hole in my ankle through my socks. The last pair I had also did the same thing. I recommend wearing a good pair of thick hiking socks to pad the ankle until the boots are formed to your feet. This is my second pair of these shoes. Great fit, waterproofing is great, comfort once broken in is great. I will not return these because they keep my feet dry in wet weather and warm in cold weather.
After 600 plus miles on the Trailmaker 2.0 I came to the conclusion that it was a near perfect hiking shoe. So I decided to give Adidas another shot. But in typical gear company fashion, they discontinue something that works and fits great and replace it with whatever this is. The fit is nowhere near the same. Size 10 ALWAYS, in ANY shoe I’ve purchased in recent years. But this size 10? Length more like an 11, width more like a 9. I’m stunned by all of the reviews praising this shoe. I just did 10 miles in these and by mile 4 I was regretting my purchase. Stiff as a board, clunky and just does not fit like it was designed for hikers. Maybe hikers from another planet? Where their feet are long and skinny? I dunno. But these shoes are terrible in my opinion. Maybe nice for a fashion statement or the casual walker. But if you do big miles you don’t want these. Requesting a return.
I usually fit between a 12 to 12.5 and I'm glad I went with the larger size. It definitely gave me more room in the toe box. The style is solid and the boot is comfortable.
These are EXTREMELY comfortable!They are SOLID! They are VERY well made! I bought these to use on the weekends whike hiking, working at my home business, and going out in the rain, BUT, I also ended uo wearing these to work. These are so comfortable! They Gore Tex is the only way to go for waterproof footwear! Adidas knocked these out of the park!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Two issues. First the shoes are difficult to firmly tie around the ankle/ top of shoe. The other issue is my fault because these aree hiking shoes, not boots. I thought they would come up over my ankle a couple inches. I was confused with a hiking shoe being different from a hiking boot.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] TERREX Skychaser Mid GORE-TEX Hiking Shoes Super supportive and incredibly comfortable straight out of the box—no breaking-in needed. Perfect for long hikes and rough terrain, with great grip and weather protection. A solid choice if you want performance and comfort from day one.
