A smart pair of Solomon trainers. I have owned 8 - 9 pairs of GTX trainers but these trainers do not fit as well as the others have. They seem to be a shallower fit on the feet meaning they rub my heal. Having worrn nothing but Solomon for the last 14 year these are not up to their usual fit. To get them the hug your feet you have to pull so hard on the quick laces I am scared I will break them.

The quicklace system / wire is very annoying. Once you pull them tight they are way too long and hit the ground when you walk along. You can't tuck them under the wire (too tight) so you have to tuck them in the shoe or have them flapping about.

The new form of one long cord lace are poorly designed. It's way too long and flaps about hitting the floor unless you tuck it in by your foot which is very uncomfortable. Would not recommend.

Now moving onto my 3rd pair of this particular style, a great shoe for my particular purpose and would be perfect save for the “manufacturing defect” suffered by both previous pairs after circa 6 months. How extremely disappointing that the failure to maintain the “waterproofness” lets this shoe down. The upside is how effective and efficient the warranty team are. 3rd pair ordered, but I will be applying the “3 strikes and you’re out” philosophy

These are might and comfortable as expected, but are a little too large in the toe area and make a flip-flop noise when walking. This could be due to my foot shape, but did not happen with other Salomon shoes I've owned. As with other Salomon shoes, I always go half a size up as they tend to be on the small side otherwise.
Been wearing the X Ultra range for years and always loved them, however this new style seems to come a bit small and my usual 12.5 rubs my toe / heel a bit. Shame as I love the color and design. Don’t want to go up another size, I have narrow feet so have to pull the laces very tight to keep my foot stable.
Not really worn for hiking yet. Will probably wait until winter. However, I have worn on a few short walks and they are very sturdy shoes. Very annoying clicking sound when walking though which I hope goes away with use
The thing i don't like, compared to my old Solomon shoes is, the Tongue is always slipping , and is too thick padding, Plus the feel of the sole and toe is more plastic, !!

A very comfortable hiking shoe with excellent grip on slippery ground. These shoes are sized correctly and have the continuous lacing system which makes adjustment easy.
My only concern is that the clever lacing system might not last as long as the rest of it. It doesn't look like an ordinary lace could be used instead.
