Comfy hiking shoe
Comfy hiking shoe! I got lucky and found these in Maine on a trip to Acadia. They are comfy and cute! First pair of Salomon’s and I would definitely get another pair.

Very comfortable but run long
These are very comfortable from the get go. No rubbing, no anything! Shoes run long. I had to size down a half size. Only complaint is, even though these fit ,they "look" long on my feet. I don't have high volume feet either, so the loose fabric on to of the toe area "pops" as I walk. I hope this goes away.

Great traction, waterproof, comfortable!
Great shoe all around! I’ve worn these shoes hiking in the Rocky Mountains with slippery conditions. Great traction! I wear them day to day now as well because they are so comfortable with a supportive footbed. Slight chunky heel for fashionable day to day use but appreciative of this feature when hiking rough terrain. Fits true to size. Worn with hiking sock.

ElixirActiv
I usually buy Speedcross but these were on sale so I thought I’d give them a try. Wore them in the house and seemed fine. Unfortunately they do not work for me. These runners fit wide, clunky and hit my ankle bones. So disappointing.

Awesome Hiker shoe
From the moment I put the shoes on, they felt awesome. They are stable even though they are a lower cut shoe, which is perfect for the hiking on uneven ground. They do not feel stiff even though they are waterproof. I love these shoes and excited to take them on my trip to Oregon!

Trail Comfort Straight Out of the Box
While still a huge fan of Brooks Cascadia’s trail runners, the Salomon Elixir Activ has become my new favorite shoe for long backpacking days in the mountains, and my go to for 50 lb rucks on and off road. The Salomon Elixir Activ have been the most comfortable shoe I have ever warm straight out of the box. So much so, I wear them at my hospital job where I’m on my feet 14 hrs a night. These shoes went from the box to a road ruck with a 53 lb GoRuck pack, and eight miles. My feet never got sore, and there were no “hot spots” As an active person who is picky about their shoes, these shoes are a must have. I highly recommend the aforementioned product, and look forward to trying other products. I’m currently testing the new Salomon water shoes for hiking, as many of my multi-day hikes involve many water crossings.

Brilliant shoe
Extremely comfortable on the first wear, managing a 12 mile walk without any issues. Excellent comfort underfoot , no rubbing or discomfort anywhere on the foot. Went for a size 4 and they fit perfectly. The only issue I had was aching ankles - I normally wear boots and missed the ankle support. Good grip on dry grassy ground, coped well with stone track, flexible enough and foot stayed perfectly in the shoe. Loved the bounce of the sole, which kept me going. Very pleased with the shoe and happy with my choice!

LOVE my Elixir Activs!!!
After months and months of searching for all-day comfortable shoes, I finally found what I was looking for in the Elixir Activ!. I had worn Salomon X crests for years, maybe decades, but found the new pioneer version to be clunky and slow, and I was struggling with the quick lace systems, gender inclusive (too much volume for me) and two-fiber inner soles on the lastest hiking models! BUT FINALLY, after trying many brands, I realized Salomon made a women's lace up-and the are JUST PERFECT. Great for hikes, great on the pavement, can walk all day in a big city and hike on trails! I bought multiple pairs I loved them so much. Right amount of foam cushion in soles--stiff enough for stability, but soft on aging joints. Normal laces I can custom fit and tie. Wide wall stability stops pronation/supination. I just can't say enough good things about these shoes! Thank you Salomon! I hated the thought of having to give up on you and now i don't have to!

Good shoe minor issues
Had for a few weeks they are comfy but they make a weird noise around the toe box when walking. Wish they would make a whole shoe in this style that is has the top material in dark and the sole in dark colors because it is a trail shoe and it will get dirty light colors don’t work. Not women like girly colors and would appreciate non girly colors too that match all outfits like black and grey please make one in darker colors. Pressure points on sides of lower heal if worn for long hours walking hoping it will go away as they break in.
