Awesome shoes just like all of the other pairs of Salomons I have had. These actually shipped from Australia and therefore took some time to arrive, I love them now that I have them.

    These type shoes are made to fit tight. Not length but around your foot. You need to tighten them down and they “lock” your foot in nicely and after a couple weeks they conformed to my foot. They feel very comfortable after what I assume was the break-in period. I hate tying my shoes so I appreciate the system to tighten the laces. For me they could have put something better to grab when tightening as the string is small and kinda cuts into your hand when you really put pressure to get them nice and tight. What they call I believe the “garage” (where you tuck the extra laces) was a little tricky for me but I do have very narrow feet so may be why there was a lot of excess string. I got the hang of it however I could tie a regular pair of shoes in the time it takes me to get them completely squared away where they are not visible. Now on to their intended use: Trail running..... they perform better than any other trail running shoes I’ve ever owned and I’ve owned many.... probably too many! The tightness I mentioned really comes in handy running over uneven ground like rocks, mud, up and down steep inclines. The times each step has to be precise or disastrous consequences would follow. The tread on the bottom is large and knobby it provided amazing traction on my recent run on a 4 mile trail during the last two miles it came a drenching downpour. I was amazed at the lack of slipping, sliding. I do wish the shoes were waterproof however I understand It would be impossible on this model without making them airtight and very hot for all but winter runs. They do have the same model except for gtx that are waterproof. The added gortex makes them waterproof but would only be useful (to me) in the winter because gortex will burn your feet up in temps over 75f or so in my experience. So I think the trade off is well worth it. Also I need to mention although they aren’t waterproof my feet didn’t get soaked like I expected and actually stayed dry until I was close to my truck digging for my keys and I stepped in a large puddle that I didn’t notice. While I was running and dodging most deep water my feet were completely dry. Overall I do have a couple things that would be nice if added or changed I can’t remove a star on a product that does exactly what it’s made to do. If they last like I expect them too I think the price although high is worth it. I will be doing many runs so if anything fails or my review changes for the worse I will update immediately. Thanks for reading and I hope it helps someone who is on the fence about these.

    I do a lot of trail running and hiking, and after going through several pairs of shoes, I've finally found the Salomon Speedcross series to be the best. Over the last couple of years I've gone through several pairs and about 2000 miles and they've remained my preferred shoe.

    First and foremost, sizing is on point but these fit narrow compared to a lot of shoes, even the wide version doesn't truly feel "wide." If you have a large/wide foot, you may want to try a pair on before you buy. However, with that said, that narrow fit usually translates to stability due to how snug around your feet they fit. Additionally, the tread on the shoes translates to the best grip I've encountered on a trail shoe which leads to a lot of confidence on the trails and hills whether it be rocky, smooth, slippery, or wet.

    The insoles are comfortable but in wetter conditions they can potentially curl up when descending steep hills. Additionally, I deal with a lot of foot pain, so for that they tend to run a little thin. I typically just replace the included soles with thicker, thermomoldable ones, which in my case, have consistently been the Viktos brand "Ruck Recovery" insoles but there are plenty of other options out there as well.

    Speaking of the tread, it's pretty durable. Through mostly dry, hard packed, southern California terrain, I'll average about 400-600 miles (or usually 4-6 months) per pair. With that said, at around 400 miles the tread around the ball of foot is usually worn down enough to consider replacing them just for the sake of potential slipping down less than stable (hard-packed with grainy pebbles/rocks and loose dirt) terrain. Also worth noting, it's not recommended to use these on pavement or asphalt, the lifespan of the tread will go down significantly if you do. So keep that in mind if you're using these in mixed terrain environments that may include paved roads.

    All that aside, I've yet to find a better all-around trail shoe.

    These things are great. They are comfortable, light, meshy so NOT waterproof but in temperate temperatures they dry fast and breath easy. The grip is bonkers good and the flex is nice for me, also reasonably light. The quick lace system has come a long way and allows for easy tightening that you can mold to your foot with a bit of practice. However I put a lot of rough miles on em and i hike and backpack with em as well as trail run. The mesh sides and plastic side supports are a common failure point for me. Now I've bough 4 of em so i think i get an appropriate amount of life out of them before they start to go but just know that's gonna go on you eventually. I have a question for all of you. THEY CHANGED THE SIDE SUPPORT MATERIAL! It looks like recycled plastic fiber...its feels like paper. I just got the new ones and am taking them out. Can anybody tell me how this new material holds up? Prefferably in my return window?

    I recently had the pleasure of acquiring a pair of Salomon shoes, and they have exceeded my expectations in every way. The level of craftsmanship is truly exceptional, showcasing meticulous attention to detail that speaks to the brand’s commitment to quality. The shoes effortlessly blend style and functionality, offering a sleek aesthetic that pairs well with both casual and active wear.

    Beyond their impressive appearance, these shoes deliver outstanding comfort and support, making them an ideal choice for long hours of wear. The materials feel both luxurious and durable, reinforcing the overall premium feel of the product. Salomon has masterfully crafted a pair of shoes that not only look remarkable but also perform to a high standard.

    A word of caution regarding sizing: I recommend opting for half a size larger than your typical shoe size. While I generally wear a slightly larger size, I found the fit to be more precise and comfortable after sizing up. This minor adjustment ensures a perfect fit, further enhancing the overall experience.

    In conclusion, Salomon shoes are a testament to exceptional quality and design. I highly recommend them for anyone seeking a refined, high-performance shoe—just be mindful of the sizing adjustment for the best fit.
