The Perfect Boot July 29, 2010
By Leauxra

It seems like you have a choice most of the time between lightweight boots that offer little in the way of support, or big clunky boots that take a year to break in, and are never very comfortable.

This boot is the best of both worlds.

Excellent grip and foot stability, without feeling like you're wearing a cast. The lateral support is the amazing thing about Salomon boots and trail runners. Even with the laces loose, your foot won't rock.

Out of the box, I took these on a long hike, then two consecutive backpack trips, and there was no break-in time. After walking 60+ miles, they still look new. The waterproofing is adequate, and even on hot days, my feet were dry as a bone in the evening, which says something about the breath-ability. I am also impressed with the large toe-box. My toes were never compressed together, and there was plenty of room to flex.

Another plus is that these boots are true to size (depending on the manufacturer, I can wear a 7 to an 8. These are a perfect 7.5).

I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a lightweight boot that doesn't want to compromise on support.

I've been searching and I've found my boots. These are winners. They seem to be unisex boots: Rugged, well-built, and wide enough, thank goodness, for non-dainty feet and two pair of socks. No breaking in necessary. I wear them with gaiters and Superfeet insoles. I've no problems with dirt or tiny pebbles. No worries on a 30-mile backpacking trip in the Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania. I didn't bring a second pair of shoes - not even Crocs. I wore the boots until tent time, three days in a row, and felt fine. Crossed streams and mud covering the books. Kept dry. They've passed the test, and I'm a happy camper. Thanks, Salomon, for getting me through the trip; I'm looking forward to the next one. Also, I like the look of these. Black, and fairly sleek. Nevertheless, they've got the space and traction that even clunky boots advertised for winter use don't deliver.

These are the first Salomon footwear I've ever bought. I do a fair bit of tramping/hiking here in NZ and have always used heavy, full-leather Scarpas. Why stomp around with heavy boots on, with no cushioning if you don't have to? I'm a slow learner ;-)
These boots are fantastic. Light weight, sturdy, good flex in the forefoot so you can walk properly. Still stable enough to carry a pack or go off track through steep, uneven terrain. Pretty supportive despite low-cut ankle.
The sizing does run big, though. I use the EU measurements and got a size 40 (US 8). Perfect!
Salomon - if you guys read these reviews, please don't stop making these boots!
Thanks Amazon - great price and service.
