Had higher expectations for these runners, but unfortunately, they didnāt live up to expectations. The fit is quite tight and overall comfort was disappointing. While they do feel stable and secure for running, the lack of cushioning at the base of the foot becomes noticeable, especially on runs >4km, leading to irritation and discomfort. Build quality also doesnāt quite match the price point. Materials and finish feel a bit underwhelming, and I expected better from Salmon in that regard. The discomfort outweighs the benefit of the Gore-Tex finish.
Prior to this year I was an inconsistent runner, once I got serious I started purchasing running shoes that were popular amongst bloggers & writers . Salomonās werenāt highly recommended but Iāve been a fan of theirs for a while so decided to give these a chance & I havenāt ran in these too long but from my experience so far I am impressed how comfortable they are & how stable they feel when transitioning terrain. I love the look & Iāve worn them twice on rainy days & although it was heavy rain they held up better than I expected.
The shoes themselves are very comfortable but like others have said, the ankle cutout is not in the right spot and the front of my ankle bone rubs. Also the also the vortex outer is nice but retains a lot of heat. Overall I like the shoes a lot, theyād be perfect if they fixed these two things!
These are great. Bought them for Army ROTC PT and they are perfect, do a great job at keeping my feet warm and dry on cold early mornings. Very responsive midsole, very bouncy. Outsole has been good on every surface so far, including sprints on grass and asphalt.
I am absoluteky blown away by this shoe, a must have in the quiver. So comfy with great cushioning and yet so dynamic. I use them everyday as this model is certainly one of the best out there. Salomon, please don't change anything, it is just perfect as it is!
Love the look and how snappy and responsive the shoe feels. The only flaw, and I nearly returned them on account of this, was being cut a bit high at the front of the ankle, which has caused some discomfort and getting used to.
These are awesome for our typical Raincouver days. Salomon's been getting a lot better as a running brand lately - it's great to see the progress. Looking forward to seeing what they come up with next!
I like these and found them really comfortable for long wear but the foam material on the sides of the shoes gets damaged SUPER easily
These shoes are very comfortable. Wearing him for running, my feet won't hurt. Ivery like it.
Super comfortable and easy to put them on and off.
