SalomonMen’s Quest Element Gore-Tex, Waterproof Neutral Leather Hiking Boots

Great fit. Very comfortable hardly any break in time excellent traction. I'm an exact 10.5 and there a perfect fit to size. Haven't found a down side put just over 10 miles on them with no blisters or issues.

I have put these boots through absolute hell and they're holding up fine. They've been from the highest point in West Virginia, down to Seneca Creek and back up again. They've been up Panther Mountain in New York. They've been through a multi-mile long trudge through shin-deep central Indiana bog. They've been through a ton of bush clearing and general yard chores. And they live in a house with a cat that attempts to eat literally everythingOther than some dirt, they still look pretty new, which is kind of amazing because usually I just absolutely DESTROY footwear, for some reason.They're about as comfortable as a boot gets for me, which isn't to say they're something I ENJOY wearing, but I don't dislike them as much as a lot of boots I've had in the past.They do their job and they do it well, can't say I've ever owned a boot as durable

I've had these for over a month now. These are worn daily at work as an arborist. They still look new. I can't attest to tge waterproof aspect yet,but gore tex should be good. I'll probably get another pair to replace these as I like them alot. Great traction on hilly terrain. They also are sort of hard on the sides which helps protect from jagged rocks on branches while walking. They're also very light,so they don't weigh you down. I definitely recommend these.

They fit true to size, and seem durable. I haven't had a chance to put them through the ringer yet but have done lots of standing for hours in them and some walking. I have flat feet and they didn't hurt *too* bad after. Tread and grip seem to be pretty decent on uneven and loose terrain.The ankle support style they have going is odd, they grip your ankles pretty firmly. I'm assuming over time it kind of stretches or loosens, but for now it is a bit uncomfortable.Breathability seems ok. I'm in Arizona but got these just as the triple digit weather ended, but I haven't felt like my feet were swimming. However the goretex is obvious as my feet were noticeably warm.Tldr, grippy, kinda warm, ankle support is incredibly smug, objectively breathable, also kind of funny color combo

Lightweight and comfortable. Durable and water resistant. Excellent quality for the money spent on them. Helpful to keep your grip on uneven surfaces. I have messed up feet and these are great boots.

I saw it had good reviews and a long life. Thought I would try them. They were delivered swiftly and without incident. I tried them on and instantly new this wasn't going well. Left foot felt fine, but my right foot had pain. It felt like something hard was being pushed against my inner ankle. I've worn them for just under 10 hrs, and the pain gets worse. It's weird with only one foot getting the pain. I will say the act of walking in them was nice. They also have plenty of foot room. I did like a lot of the shoes, but because of how much my ankle hurts, I can't say I will keep trying to wear these. I'm giving it a 1 star review because shoes shouldn't hurt your feet no matter how well built they are. If it wasn't for the pain, this would be a five star review. Now I will have to wait longer to replace my shoes again. Definitely recommend trying before purchasing.

Salomon strikes again...fantastic boot! Fits like a glove...grippy...stable and waterproof!

So, earlier this year I purchased some Salomon shoes (Speedcross 5s) and wow, were they comfortable. So I decided to take a chance on their hiking boots for more serious hikes, and I ordered these in the same size that fit in the Speedcrosses. You never know how things are going to fit until you try them on, so it was a bit of a chance. These being serious hiking boots, I needed them to have extra room in the toe area to accommodate thicker socks--and that area of the boot was indeed larger in the same size. More importantly, I could actually put on some incredibly thick socks and the lacing system would let the boot expand to fit them perfectly. In a word--could not be happier with the fit.I also really feel the ankle support up and down the boot, and if you're the kind of stumbling klutz I am after 6 hours on the trail, this is greatly appreciated. Solid ankle support has saved me multiple times from tears and sprains that I could ill afford on long hikes.Durability--I can't tell yet. Will update in a year or so if I remember.So yes, 5 stars, and they look good too!
