I was a regular trail runner until an accident a couple of years ago which stopped me running for a while. I'd bought a pair of trail shoes from another well known sports brand without reading the specs and used them a couple of times before my accident. After that, I cleaned them and put them away.However, I decided recently to give the trail running a go again.Within 3 weeks of using my other trail shoes, I found out that they were for a pronator and not a supinator like me. This caused a few problems with my right soleus which threatened my pretty short return to trail running. I rarely got over 2k - 3k before the pain hit me. Lesson learned - research your product.I've always been a fan of Salomon footwear (I own walking boots,

I wear size 8.5 in almost all my shoes. I tried this on in a store before buying just to make sure. Previous reviews showed that about 80% of people stated that it was true to size. Initial fit feels very comfortable. There is some snugness around the midfoot. Toe box feels adequate with plenty of room. I would say that I have an average size/width foot. After walking around in them for a day or two, the heel feels slightly loose and overall, they feel slightly (minimally) on the larger side (only in the heel), however I don't think it will be an issue since feet may swell a little bit after racing. I don't think the looseness warrants going down in size though, so I'm glad that I stuck with the 8.5.

I run about 5 miles a day usually. I live in Seattle so i need something waterproof to run in. Doesn't look like there even is such thing as a just a waterproof jogging shoe, the only thing i could find are waterproof trail running shoes. I guess shoe makers think it only rains in the woods? I figured I'd give trail runners a try since half my run is street and the other half trail.On the street: Aweful, these are not a hybrid shoe. The hard sole adds a big increase in shock, was hard on my knees. On wet streets they can get slippery.On the trail: Wonderful, decreased the shock impact, good grip, good support on uneven terrainWaterproof: A true waterproof shoe, I ran in rain and hit a lot of puddles,

I was after a pair of running shoes that would help me during this years tough mudder and was recommended Solomon speedcross as a must by the nice chaps on the forum. I went for this pair as I liked the look and the orange pair was quite a bit cheaper as I didn't care for the look as they were expected to get filthy anyway.Turns out I really liked the look of the orange anyways, they fitted perfectly, I'm a 9 and they fitted me perfectly. I proceded to wear them in on a few 6k runs and a park run which was half concrete and half mud. They are a pleasure to run in, I even shaved 1 minute off my PB while doing a park run. Although not ideal for concrete (which they are not designed for)

5' 8"130 lbsNarrow foot all aroundSize 8 in Asics, went with size 8 in salomonFirst of all the fit of these on me are amazing. Received these just in time for an intense 14 mile out and back day trip with a 9200 elevation gain (loose dirt at the bottom, sharp rock in the middle and shale at the top) and these functioned fantastically. After I got home I inspected the bottoms for wear. They looked perfect with an exception to the inner side of the right shoe. It looks like there is a manufactoring defect in the foam of the shoe and the rubber sole doesnt cover the bottom completely.My knees hurt pretty bad by the time I got home and decided I needed to break them in more so I went on a 10 mile walk.

I finally wore out all of my Speedcross 3's and had to purchase a Speedcross 4. Pretty similar design, thank goodness. If you're a fan of the Speddcross 3, you'll recognize these 4's as an old friend.About the Speedcross series: Pros: Lightweight. I love the speed lace design. Excellent support. unbeatable traction. Good looks. Cons: they wear down fast when run on asphalt or concrete. They're TRAIL runners. Kind of like how aggressively treaded off-road tires wear faster than highway tires or non-DOT dirt bike tires wear down quickly when ridden on pavement. That's just the way things are.I personally run on both dirt trails and the road,

May say straight off, this is a beautiful shoe. This is my second pair in a different colour though. I however thought I was buying a gore tex running shoe. I later found that there are two models, Buyers beware, you must look for the symbol to the right hand side of the bullet point pictures to guarantee gore tex. If there is a tag then it is waterproof, however if there is not, then you got it, No it's not waterproof. I must say though size 8 must be in popular demand. In the gore tex version because I can't get them anywhere, In this colour that is, I must say though I think I will actually use these for casual ware & wait for the gore tex set come back.These are so good looking to trash on the hills & roads.

Absolutely LOVE these shoes. They’re are phenomenally grippy and afternoon researching them and now testing them out for a couple weeks I think I’ll get a few years out of them easily.Arch support is Very high compared to what I’m used to. Had to wear them around the house a few days, hours at a time. The first time I put them on just sitting on the couch with my feet proper up they made my feet start hurting and go numb a bit.Slowly worked into them, even tried the wide version of the same shoe (but different color) and those actually hurt worse (don’t know why). The cut of the insole insert that comes with them didn’t seem cut right to be especially on the left foot.Idk what it is about my

If you have worn Speedcross 4 before, then you won't be interested in other people's opinions as you know that they are superb. The only reason to check here is to see if you think these are real or fake items. The pair I received are genuine and of excellent build quality. 66 Sovs at the time of purchase is great too.This is my 5th pair and I justify my purchasing by saying that they are for my mountain biking; the Contragrip gives excellent grip on platform pedals and I have endurance raced three races with them with less than a handful of slashed shins from slipped pedals - all my fault - not the shoes. However, I wear these shoes on a daily basis for all ambulatory activities and cannot fault anything except that the sole lugs wear down faster than one may expect.

Like many indicated, if you are not use to these shoes they provide a bit of compression so they definitely feel tight the first time you put them on. But I bought these as performance shoes to play in an outdoor grass volleyball tournament and realized the value in the first game. While they are definitely a snug fit I had no issues of jamming my toes, blisters, etc. What I did get was insane traction and the ability to cover the entire court. I gained complete respect from our opponents with both congratulations and a strong desire from them to avoid placing a ball in my direction. I absolutely fell in love with these shoes for this function. I noticed some didn't like the added weight.

My very first pair and I am in love with these shoes. I bought these for softball and they are by far the best show I have ever played in over the past 24 years of playing the sport. They transition great from infield to outfield, dry to wet conditions and hard infield to a sand pit! Traction is phenomenal and stability is amazing. I have had multiple knee surgeries and suffer from severe shin splints and chronic back pain. Shoes are a huge contributing factor to how all of those ailments behave and I can 100% say it has not aggravated or activated any of those issues. My first wear was for two full days of tournament play....forgot I even had them on! My feet were in no pain at the end of each day.

Really like these shoes. I normally run on roads but have been visiting Cornwall recently (when lockdown allows) and running on coastal paths and fields.I run about 1km on road to get to the paths and the shoes are fine - feel a little odd as the grip moves on hard surfaces as they are quite “tall” but it is fine for shortish distances and the grip doesn’t seem to suffer for it.Once on fields and paths these shoes are brilliant even after a night of rain the grip is awesome, no sliding at all. I feel totally sure footed when running in them.The laces are great without the need to tie them and even without any warm up I didn’t get any blisters at all - first run in them was 11k and no pain or rubbing at all.

This is my first pair of Salomons, but they came highly recommended so when it was time for new trail-running shoes there wasn’t much debate in my head. That being said, I got very concerned when I came across dozens of not hundreds of one-stat reviews from people who obviously got counterfeit products. I was worried that I would Also get a counterfeit product. I watched several videos about how to differentiate the reals from the phonies so when the shoes came today I was relieved to see that these are most certainly genuine. I have taken them on a run and they fit and feel great. The tread is one of my favorite aspects of the shoe and I am surprised more trail shoes are not the same.

Pros- Use for mud runs and they give a quality grip- Solid quality overall as wellCons- The lace tightening mechanism is easy to use but if you're in the middle of a 10 mile mud run they can be gunked up with mud and debris, making them near impossible to slide for tightening/loosing.- As most reviews say, they run a bit tight and if you're in the mud for long runs you need a bit more space. I thought this was a fluke so I bought a size 12 and normally wear 12. While I have no issues completing a run in these, my toes do take a beating due to the pressure of the shoe once you get wet and your feet swell. I'm not sure how much bigger a 13 would be for me (could be too sloppy),

They are good...but the Speedcross 3's had better grip despite the slightly smaller lugs.I raced Snowdon with these in September and, whilst they were great for uphill, they're not so great on the way down. They didn't give me a huge amount of confidence coming down the mountain and they either slipped on wet surfaces or my feet gave way several times. Even on wet grass, I must have slipped 3 or 4 times which forced me to slow down and consider my placement a lot more that I'd have liked.They're not all bad though. I ran over 600km in these trainers and they held up really well. The soles are worn (as you'd expect) and I had to buy some orthotics to support my overpronation - the insole that comes with the trainer are really thin and the support just isn't there.
