Salomon

Quest Element GTX Hiking Boot - Women's

Foot feels very stable

I have a pair of Salomon hiking boots that I bought over 10 years ago. They are still good but I’m travelling to the UK in October so I thought I’d buy a new pair. Wore them a few times to use them before long walks. quite confortable, very stable and solid feeling on the ground, very large compared to my old boots but I wear orthotics so it’s a good thing but could feel too loose for some people with a thin foot.Chaffed my ankle on one side, wore thicker socks hopefully that problem will resolve itself with time. real test will be hiking in the Scottish Highlands later this fall..

Comfy supportive and grippy

Bought in Oct 2022, loved them... super comfy, supportive, grippy and kept my feet dry through boggy areas. However, now at the end of my second walking holiday (with occasional use at home) and the soles of my feet ache, the soles have worn and no longer feel cushioned and can feel rocks through the sole. Bit disappointed as have previously used salomons due to the comfort and durability.

Great boot, great vomfort

I bought these for my wife, after explaining to her that Salomon’s is what I wore while in the military. She wore them to her job at a “range” that she is an instructor at , and she fell I. Love with the comfort and quality

Great! Waterproof (to a point)! But ouch

I love these boots in every way except how they hurt an inch to 2 inches above my ankle. I don't know what it is...tieing the boots looser helps but doesn't fix the issue. The boots left a red abrasion after a mile hike on very uneven ground (didn't bruise though). I will say, they are waterproof! I walked through low flow rivers (about an inch to 2 inches in depth) without an issue! As far as slipping goes, I've only slipped on a wet log so far (I caught myself). I have gone free bouldering and hiked through mud/rivers. Great experiences! I felt like I had great footholds even with the smooth granite rock. 8/10 would recommend with 2 points taken away for the upper ankle pain. I got an 8.5 and I'm normally an 8. My heels aren't slipping at all but I still have room for warm socks.

Amazing

Love the way these boots feel. Very supportive, grippy soles, generous toe box. I did need to break them in a bit, but it didn't take long. Colors match the photos and I found these to be true to size. 10/10

Truly excellent

Fourth pair of Salomon walking boots…… never disappointed!

Great Value Boot

A brilliant option to pick up a bargain. Comfortable, waterproof, grippy and supportive. A good looking shoe fit for all weather and terrains. True to size.

OUCH!

While these boots are sturdy and have a good grip, I agree with the other reviews that these boots HURT! I also have been a Salomon boots wearer for years. I backpack minimum of 150 miles per summer and usually have excellent experiences with Salomon boots. But these boots bruised both of my outer shins from being cut so high and stiff on my 22-mile Devil's Causeway Loop. In addition, as others have said, the bottom eyelet cut into the top of my right foot. Won't be wearing again...
