Reviews overview
Disadvantages
This is what customers from around the world say:
I hiked in Ireland in these shoes. The trails are boggy and often have to cross streams.
It's waterproof, breathable. Provides really good stability and support. Strongly recommend it.

I have used previous models of these boots for many years without issue, i have to say the latest model are uncomfortable causing both feet to ache after short distances , the sole split and a section broke away after very few hours of use , they seem like a vastly inferior product compared to others . therefore i would not recommend for commited hiking trips and will in future be looking for a different brand as these boots in my opinion are not fit for purpose.
I find these boots as comfortable as slippers when walking on rocky terrain. Surprisingly light for such a rugged boot. Great support for the ankles and protection for the soles of the feet. I found no need to break them in as they were fine on first wear.

... but Salomon changed the design from previous generation and there is a hard plastic piece on the side of the sole now what can be uncomfortable for some - while others does not notice it at all. it wasn't good for me, however I loved the previous generation.
