Why We Like The X Ultra 4 GTX Hiking Shoe
The X Ultra 4 GTX Hiking Shoe promised us a fast, stable ride on the trail, and it delivers. Salomon's new chassis protects our ankles from excessive supination while still keeping us nimble on technical trails. Grippy lugs and a GORE-TEX membrane let us move carefree over wet terrain.

I’ve never had a problem when ordering a size 12 (us) shoe or boot from any manufacturer, or any style of footwear. I bought these for a trip I was leaving on the day after I got them so I had to take them. Luckily the trip was not hiking or a lot of walking! I had to cut off the outer edges of the insoles to keep my ankles and outsides of my feet from hurting. Even with the thinnest socks I could find my toes are jammed into the front of the shoes. Honestly, they feel like a 11-narrow instead of a 12-regular. Since I had to wear them I can’t return, but they are now throw-away/donate items and I’m back shopping again.

Comfortable but not Impressed
Bought my first pair of Salomon not knowing how comfortable they would be. They’re comfortable but at the same time they’re not either. They hit me in the arch of the right foot on the left side of my right foot and I’ve noticed there not really breaking in to make it more comfortable. Must be how the boot/ shoe is designed. Other than that they seem like a decent shoe and they look great. Just not to sure if I’d purchase again.

Solid, durable, lightweight, waterproof
They last well, are comfortable, lightweight and properly waterproof. They also look pretty good. However, they do tend to come loose after a few km and require regular re-tightening which can be frustrating.

Great shoe except for 2 problems
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.

Love these shoes

Wore them today for the first time around our property and while in Buena Vista, CO. These are great shoes. Not heavy. Fit well. Very stable. Love the quick lace system which saves me having to replace my laces with a system that doesn't loosen/tighten as well as these do. I'll be getting another pair.

X Ultra 4 GTX, comfortable when dry
I’ve worn these over a dozen times since buying them last month. Overall quite pleased; they are a good fit and comfortable. However, one of the reasons I chose these is their waterproof spec. Half an hour into my 3mile morning walk in persistent rain I could feel my feet getting wet. The uppers are made of Goretex yet they succumbed to heavy rain in 30mins.

Great shoes
I'm hard on shoes. For a pair of shoes to last me a year is impressive. Plus they are comfortable to boot.
