Comfortable and Sturdy
Great shoe for hiking and day-to-day wear. Haven't had them for long, but I've been enjoying them so far!

These are great!
While looking to buy these, I read some negative reviews that made me a bit hesitant...be sure to size up, not durable, they are ugly, the free floating tongue makes me mad, the lacing system is bad....I did see one guy whos eylet broke out, but Salomon covers that in their warranty so just send em back.... I have a pair of Salomon real deal hiking boots, which are impractical to wear to the office or around town, so unless I am hunting or on the trail I don't wear them. So I got these because I love the durability and the support that Salomon provides, I can step into the office or the woods with these and be perfectly fine. I have wide feet and these run true to size, so people who say order a size up, you might not know what your actual shoe size is. Patagonia stuff runs small, these do not, I ordered a half size larger simply because when I do take these to the mountains, my feet will swell and Ill have heavier socks on, but its not because they don't run true to size. These are great shoes in my opinion and I have thousands of miles under my feet all around the country that can verify I know a good shoe when I walk in it. These are great, if you're not a nitpicky baby about stuff, you won't be disappointed.

I love these shoes except…
I have bought two pair of these shoes. What I like: great comfort and stability when hiking. Also the goretex seems to last longer than the ultra 3. What I don’t like: the floating tongue make the shoe difficult to put on. Also the Achilles heal protector is too long and is not made out of durable material so I ended up with a hole in both feet. I hope the x ultra 5 fixes these two problems.

Good and durable
I like it. I use as everyday shoes (4 seasons) and it last for 1 year. This is my second pair and will use a third one for this year.

Disappointment
Bought these around a year ago, used mostly for walking. Fit is ok, it is not hot wearing them. The problem is though the inner lining at the heel, it lasted a year. I would expect a better quality for the price.

Once you go with these, you can't go back..
I used to hike with typical Danner military boots, all the time. But this pair of shoes are my very first hiking shoes. They are so comfortable and so lightweight, with so much ventilation. I doubt if I will ever go back to the conventional boots anymore. The grip is insane for both mud and dry rock, and the mid foot locks to the terrain with zero foot roll. It give me some much confidences. I took off one star because after 4 miles of mountain hiking, my right ankle bone hurts a lot due to constant pressing against the heel cup. I have a low ankle bone and got problems with shoes that have high heel-cups. So if you have low ankle bone like me, you might need some break-in.

huge downgrade from earlier version
I have had an original XUltra version of this shoe and it was fabulous. Lasted forever and only bought the v4 because I wanted a new looking pair. The Xultra 4 is a horrible step in the wrong direction. The laces have actually cut through the eyelets in 1 year and now the shoes are useless and I will get rid of them.
