Why We Like The X Ultra 4 Mid GTX Hiking Shoe
The X Ultra 4 Mid Shoe ensures we get all the stable support we expect out of mid-height hikers, except Salomon designed it with a bit more agility than we expected. We like that Salomon's new Advanced Chassis protects sensitive articulations without inhibiting freedom of movement.

Looking forward to using these for their purpose.
Been working on getting these broken in. Think I am almost there but they still hurt my feet a bit.

Got a few hikes with them so far
I got these after talking to a product specialist at REI. I learned about my arched feet and listened some general pointers that made a whole lot of sense to me. Until then, I usually did my hiking and backpacking with sneakers. Fashion wise, these things look pretty cool, no doubt, however they are a bit flashy for my tastes. I’m pretty skinny too so when I wear shorts with these I feel like I’m wearing clown shoes. When I hit the trail with these, oh man, it was like night and day in terms of comfort, traction, and foot support (in no particular order). I no longer have to watch my footing to prevent slipping when ascending hills on trails. My feet feel well supported when walking over rocks. As a matter of fact, the sole tech feels like a biolayer that adjusts itself to the bends my feet do when going over uneven terrain. It’s just bananas! It’s quite comfortable too and my arches feel supported; not sure how beneficial it is biomechanically, especially as I am currently being sucked into the world of the zero drop/barefoot peeps, but it sure feels comfortable! The REI rep did mention that having good foot support helps with endurance on long distance hikes so that is something I will pay attention to on my next 10+ mile hike. As I learned that my right foot was slightly longer than my left, this could explain why a blister developed on my right foot around the back of the heel ball. I’m hoping that after a few more hikes this won’t happen anymore. I haven’t been able to test out the goretex with water yet (as soon as I do another hike with a running stream, these bad boys are going in), but they seem to breath well. I did a 5 mile ridge hike with them that included multiple cresting points when it was around 80 with no shade and my feet didn’t feel too hot after. And since I brought up the barefeet people, I just want to mention the 11mm drop does kind of bothers me. Maybe I’m focused on it more, but I feel like there is no space between my heel and the ground when I take a step on level ground; it also feels like my knees are taking the brunt of the impacts when I strike down. However, descending down slopes feels great! The shoe also feels pretty sturdy, however I am eyeing the crease where the shoe bends in the toe box during heel uplift. I intend to care for these shoes after use to see how long I can wear them since I hear a lot about how these types of shoes (trail runners, or a hybrid of one in this case) aren’t durable. Anyways, hope to write good things after a year of moderate to heavy use (which for me would be like 100-250 miles but hopefully more).

Finest boots I've ever owned!
These are by far the finest boots I've ever owned and I'm 67 years old! They are so sweet that I'm ordering an extra pair because I don't ever want to be without them. I found out about them from a YouTuber named Roboutdoorz. Check out his channel for more.

Comfortable
Second pair. Really comfortable. Great support and stability. Good traction. First pair the fabric on the toe box wore out prematurely and started to leak. We’re still serviceable for a while. Used for walking my dog and hiking

Premium Hiking Shoe X-Ultra Mids
This product is by far the most versatile, comfortable, and durable footwear I’ve ever used…. Read on for the story. I purchased these boots for an upcoming Search & Rescue mission in South Carolina/ WNC Mountains. These boots broke in quickly after wear, and were the absolute best experience I’ve ever wore during a mission. Let me say I wasn’t “trail hiking” for long, these boots took me to places I’ve never thought possible. From crossing boulders, walking up/across down trees and through water, from a first responders view, I won’t leave the house without them. They are true to size, easy to lace and comfortable. I could imagine if you installed insoles they would be even better but they are certainly not needed. If you’re questioning buying these, do it! You won’t regret it. -Chad
