One winter, we were lucky to be skiing in Canada and coming down some pretty steep mountains in temperatures of - 30° C. Of course, in such areas you need reliable gear that you can count on. Sadly, one woman had wandered up there with her two very small children neither of whom had hats or gloves. Closer to home, we often walk up the West Pennine Moors near the Winter Hill transmitter. You’d be surprised how many young women wander up there in flip-flops and high heels!Enter these fabulous walking/running all terrain trail shoes from Salomon. Just the name gives confidence as what this reliable and trusted brand does not know about unforgiving and adverse conditions and terrain is not worth knowing.

Size:10 Medium widthActual fit:Length wise, these are very much spot on for a 10. Width wise, they're definitely on the narrow side for a medium width, but not at all outside the range for medium.These are going to work best for someone who's been measured and is a spot on 10 and on the low to medium end of medium width.If you're more like a 10.25-10.5, don't buy the 10. If you're a 10 and on the upper end of a medium width, trending toward wide width, don't buy the 10 medium.It's really that simple.I chose these to review for my nephew. He wears a 10 medium and these fit him perfectly, but snuggly.I also have these in an 11.5 medium for myself. I'm a traditional 11.5 medium and they fit like a glove.In both cases,

Salomon are a French brand that are just bout making waves in the UK market. I've got some walking boots from the brand already, and the one thing that comes across is the use of technical materials but most of all - they're light. The robust design seems to last, but with minimal fatigue from the weight of the boots and shoes.I like the minimal branding, and neutral army green and black colour-way. They are functional as robust running shoes that are used often, and in adverse weather conditions. The whole shoe is Gore-Tex coated and keeps water out remarkably.Very slim, though there is good enough give in the sides to mold to fit. The rubberised sole comes up over the natural sole line,

Being that these are a newer brand to me, I was unsure of what to expect. That said, I am very impressed with the minimalistic design combined with some quality/lightweight materials. The grip is among the best I have experienced with non-cleat type shoes. The sole is seriously very good at preventing me from slipping and sliding...with an added bonus that they are not marking my flooring. I've worn these shoes outside and around a few times, running a couple, and I am happy with the way they fit but do wish they were the tiniest bit wider on the part of the foot where it gets wider...These seemed to have stretched out fairly quickly and were not uncomfortable to wear,

Solid and comfortable running shoe, these arrived in a Salomon branded simple lift top shoe box wrapped in the normal way with tissue paper. I do less running now and cycle more but still have a short run at least once a day in the morning to start the motor :)After taking them out of the box I gave them a really good look over checking all the finishing and stitching which I found to be almost flawless, the design is very nice without too much flash you can get on some running shoes although of course this is down to personal taste.They fit me very well and after putting them on I went out for a run, I would say these are more suitable for a runner that tends to heel strike more as they have about a 7 to 8 millimetre drop off from heel to toe.

I received these in a size 10 and while I wear a 9-10 size typically these didn't fit me at all. I do typically wear a wide size (9 Wide in some brands) and other brands fit fine without a wide designation. These shoes are more on the "thin" side.Fortunately one of my friends wears a 9-9.5 and he fit in them just fine.He has been wearing them the past 3 days nonstop basically and he really likes them. He said that the arch support is good; walking "offroad" in dirt and grass feels good in these shoes.The soles are thin as shown in the picture; but there is still alot of cushion in the step (likely due to the rubber on the bottom).

Shoes were delivered much ahead of promised date.Pros:The shoes look aggressive and well designed with great uphill as well downhill grips. I could run 10kms trail easily under 60min on the first wear and they are impressive. The inside of the shoes fits comfortably as explained (ortholite). I tried for a week of run on an average 4-5 kms daily and the shoes feel well fit and feet does not get warm or sweaty. Gortek works good on mild splashes and wet grass. They are light weight too.Cons:- the front part is narrow and it could be a problem for wide feet as there won’t be space for fingers to move or adjust.- 1 size big to actual fit is better- minimal protection on fingers portion if rocky or uneven trails- the beats on soal (especially on the heal side)

I took these out for a spin this morning in pouring rain. Ran 5 miles on a combination of road and trail, including through some almost lake-like standing water puddles. The GTX works! My feet came out dry except for the sweat that accumulated beneath the gore tex layer. Unfortunately the fit prevents this from being a perfect shoe. The last used to create the footbed is decidedly closer to B than D, and for anyone with an E or wider foot, you can expect that this will be snug in the same realm as nikes. I actually run closer to a 9 or 9.5 wide but am glad I had the 10s in these because even with the empty toe box (i used a lace lock to prevent heel slippage),

I have several generations of Salomon hiking boots, so when I got these I knew i'd have to order a half size large. These fit just like my older boots. That is, I measure out as a Men's 9.5 (US) and in the Salomon line I always need to get a Men's 10.0 (US). With that, these fit me super great. I appreciate:1. The built-in orthotic with arch support is excellent.2. These are "trail runner" shoes and are appropriately light as runners, and appropriately sturdy with lug soles for the trail.3. Look great - sturdy but modern looking.4. Tongue is continuous with the uppers to keep dirt out, but is made so that it is still easy to get my foot in and then cinch up the laces to close up.

Having some time away from running due to some service related injuries, I've been wanting to get back into some light workout.These were available for me to try so I thought it'd give them a go. Unfortunately, there's a few things that's going to make that not possible with these.The arch of the sole is almost non existence. It's way too narrow for my feet. My ankle rolls center just standing still in these. The lug pattern on the sole has huge voids. Great for clearing mud on the trailsI wear any where between a 9 and a 9.5. I got these in 10 based on the other reviews saying that they were a touch small. I think that they are closer to a 10 than they are small. The heel cup slide just a hair.That being said,

after a a few weeks wear they are very Comfortable I'm not a massive trainer fan but its always good to have a good quality pair for travelling, sports or just when the weathers not so good. I'm actually impressed with the quality and the design had to get one size up.Pros:+ Plenty of support from the soles+ No visible gaps where the sole is joint with the main body, everything has been glued well and coloured+ Very lightweight+ Removable insoles for easy washing or for replacing+ Nice design with the criss-cross fabric+ Goretex fabric (verified with the gortex label)+ Reinforced heel and back of the shoe+ Reinforced front so more protection for toes (even though it is a bit unsightly)+ Nice

I initially thought my son would like these, but they were slightly too small.Having a large foot myself I have opted to keep them for myself.I’ve never heard of this brand, but having read up on this brand they appear to be a solid brand.I don’t go running myself but I do take my dog for walks and these will be perfect.A very comfortable fit and they are well made and although they appear somewhat bulky they are surprisingly light in weight.If you are going to partake in activity more excitable than walking the dog I’d highly recommend these footwear for long distance walking, climbing and hiking.Some might say they are expensive, but as per my research they are solid,

I recently started running and my route is on an uneven country bridleway so I needed something that would cope with that and especially when Autumn/Winter sets in and it gets muddy. These got good reviews so I gave them a shot. They are comfy right out of the box and have plenty of tread, which makes me feel very secure running across the uneven ground. I have taken them out on a couple of mornings when it has been damp and they stayed nice and dry through the long grass, which was just what I wanted. They soak up the lumps and bumps well and are surprisingly light considering the size of the soles. Hopefully these will stand up to some abuse as I am very happy with them.

These shoes have a very good outer layer, with gripping cleats that are slip resistant, an outer layer that is water resistant but breathable, and a good insole. Normally, I would talk about getting a fit for orthotics, except that in this case, Salomon already provides not only a good standard insole, they add to that comfortable solution by adding a removable bespoke orthotics precut and fitted for these shoes! Trail hikers and runners can go with or without the removable orthotics, but I highly prize a good deep step to prevent foot pain. These shoes are a one-stop solution for rough use on a hike.
