Quest Element Gore-Tex Men's Outdoor Shoes, Waterproof, All-terrain stability, and Outdoor essentials

Perfect for mountain walking. Tried them on pen y fan for about 5 hours, no discomfort at all.

Amazing quality of boots! A little toe heavy so if you’re not used to wearing a heavy boot I’d bare that in mind, other than that it has great support and surprisingly good waterproof capabilities!

As described

Salomon quality has simply nose-dived. My first pair lasted for around 3 years and were falling off my feet before I bought the next pair as they were so comfortable. Since then, these boots have not been built with the same care or quality as they barely last a year now before something goes wrong. Unfortunately, they are some of the most comfortable boots so we keep buying but they simply don’t last. This pair have lasted for 14 months before the sole is started to delaminate. They get used 2 to 3 times a day every day walking my dogs but not heavy trekking.They come with a 2-year warranty which the manufacturer won’t do anything about as this purchase is through Amazon rather than themselves. If anyone knows how to return these to Amazon and get repairs/replacement/refund it would be great as the system doesn’t give any simple way of doing this!

Excellent second pair comfortably on last pair 6.7 years wear Pentland Hills weakly west highland way three peaks John muir way average 12.16 miles a average

These boots feel narrow on my feet compared to others I have worn, I like the tightness since I have a problem with a protruding ankle bone that needs supported. Have similar soles on other Solomon shoes and I know they do not last long compared to others, but grip well whilst they still have tread.Wore then in the house for a couple of days before going out on the trails with them, they did not hurt my feet breaking them in.Have ordered another pair since I reckon after 200-300 miles of trail walking they will be worn out trail wise, yet I so like the lightness and waterproof levels of these boots.My sore ankle does not bother me much and certainly never worsens whilst I wear these.

Waited for a summer and winter before reviewing.These are excellent boots. Really well made and actually have coped with the rugged use.My only complaint is they aren’t available in black.Great boots, totally recommend them.

Straight out of the box I did a 12k cliff hike in rain at -1c. Warmest part of me was my feet (with decent merino socks). There really was no breaking in necessary. Result!The lower of my foot normally aches after a hike (even with other Salomon GTX) but not with these. Not sure why this is as they both have Ortholite insoles. Other reviews say the sole is too stiff but that hasn’t been my experience thus far. They are really light.If you have other Salomon boots, get the same size imo. For me it’s half a size up from shoes.Really easy to get the correct fit all over with the lace system. This is as something I find an issue with other brands like HH. You can get the perfect fit really.Really happy with this purchase even though the delivery time was longer than usual.As a plus they look fantastic.

If you are hiker , adventurous, go straight and have it , amazing

Very nice pair of shoes

the shoes need break-in time and also the traction is overall good but not as good as any Vibram sole.

These boots felt comfortable right out of the box, I hike with my dog in the forest almost every morning in Northern Ontario and they have held up great, no seam splitting or rubber delaminating. Great tread, ankle support and so far are water resistant (2 months old) There is a trick when unlacing them; the middle metal guide holds the laces as tight as you want but won’t let go, you have to pull them down to stretch it and then they come out perfectly.I have bought a lot of hiking boots in my 65 years these are about the best.

I used these boots for more than 18 hrs continuously. I used them while I climbed almost an elevation of 2500 ft and down.I also went through a reentrant and water. All this and I did not feel anything. Boots are totally waterproof, keeps feet warm and fits nicely.
