SALOMONMen's X Ultra Pioneer Mid Gore-tex Outdoor

Very good boots, comfortable straight out the box.Waterproof but not particularly warm.I'm a UK 9 and needed to go up to a10 - enough room for thick socks if needed.Tried 9 1/2 but a little too tight.Only downside is insoles are rubbish so would suggest something better.Seem well made and the sole looks hard wearing based on a couple of weeks walking the dog.Got them with 40% off so very happy.

Good quality , Good all round. Maybe expensive even when getting a good deal but it’s worth saving up for and getting quality that lasts a long time and supports and protects you and your feet

The media could not be loaded. I recently tested this shoe, and it was absolutely brilliant. The waterproofing is outstanding—I stood and walked in a lake for 10-15 minutes, and my feet stayed completely dry. The material does a fantastic job of keeping water out while still being breathable and comfortable for long walks.It’s cost-effective and great value for my money. Since the design sits below the ankle, water can get in if it’s too deep, so it’s best for shallow streams, wet trails, and rainy conditions rather than full submersion.Overall, it’s a fantastic choice for hikers and outdoor lovers, combining reliable waterproofing, comfort, and affordability.

I love these Salomon Ortholite boots. They’re primarily used for the daily dog walk expeditions and have proved to be the best boots I’ve had in ages. The best thing is the lightweight quality but they have surprised me by the excellent waterproofing. For up to four hours of wet Welsh weather, they stay dry and comfortable very well. (I haven’t tested them beyond a four hour walk but they stand up to pretty soggy weather and deep puddles excellently). I’ve been wearing this pair for about two months and they show little sign of wear and tear. Hose the down after a muddy walk and they look as good as new.

Got these as a replacement for my 7 year old 2DX which started leaking a while back.Initial thoughts, the build quality is not as good, less rubber over the toe and overall feels more flimsy, but light weight and Goretex so should be fine.First day wore them for 7 hours of very light walking, bit of mud, no rain, just as comfy as I expected. Week later, 30 mins walking in wet grass and my the inside of my right foot from the big toe is soaked from underneath, water didn't get in from the top, it's coming from the side where it would flex for my toes. Obviously very disappointed, but I'm returning them and will get another pair as this is most likely just a defect.Other annoyance was I didn't wearing them 2nd time within the 30 day return window, so Amazon have offered a refund, not replacement, but they are now more expensive, so I have to make up the extra.

Bought these just before a couple of 16 mile walls and they performed brilliantly. Good grip, completely waterproof even walking through long wet grass and fully breathable. My socks were completely dry at the end of both days. I’m normally a size 11/12 but ordered these size 13.5UK and they fitted really well. Suggest you order in a bigger size. Highly recommended

I bought these boots in May 2023 and have walked about 20 miles a week in them since then - usually over hilly terrain and along grassy tracks.I’ve had good experience with Salomon trail running shoes in the past so was keen to try these. Build quality seemed excellent to begin with. Well made, good quality materials and finished well.Fit was quite tight for me (size 10, wide-ish foot) but overall they were comfortable for long hikes and I've never had any blisters wearing them.Initially the waterproofing seemed fine, and in the summer months I had few complaints. Recently, in wetter weather and through wet grass, the boots have leaked water pretty early on a hike and my feet have become quickly sodden.There’s clearly a problem with one of the boots because the left boot becomes sodden much faster than the right one. There’s no obvious crack or hole in the boot but water is coming in around the toes. Very disappointing for Gore-Tex boot.The grip on the boots is only average; again in muddier conditions they lose traction pretty easily and I’ve had a few too-many slips and slides in these boots.So, for me, these aren’t fit for purpose in winter or in wet conditions. They’re fine in summer months and on dry terrain where their comfort is a higher priority than their ability to keep water out or their grip in the mud.

Best hiking boots for me personally. Super comfortable and lightweight. Recommend to anyone.
