Happy husband
Bought these boots for my husband for his birthday. He wore them straight away and had no problems doing a long walk up and down hill. He says they are comfortable and he likes how they look.

5 stars out of 5
I bought the x ultra 4 boots in 2020. I've done about 5-10 miles in them, six days a week for 5 years. That's 7.5 x 6 x 365 x 5 = 82,000 miles, in rain, sun and snow, on concrete, grass and woodland, hot and cold. I haven't even had to change the laces. The treads are worn down now and a small split has appeared near the front on the left, which allows water in when I stand in a puddle. Looking forward to another 5 years of use with these new x ultra 5. They came exactly as they look on the photo and are a comfortable fit right out the box.

Comfortable hiking foot wear
I have had the product for over a month . So far no issues. Walking on trails ( gravel to slightly complex and uneven ) . I was walking in wet grass , the boot got soaked but my feet stayed dry.

Pricey but soft and leak slightly
Spent time with a new pair of extra wide fit in the Scottish Munroes. Good boots with little to no breaking in needed. Crossed a few streams and discovered they leak a little, but less than other brands. Apart from that they're really comfortable and pretty cool. The wide fit is much appreciated

Super comfortable hiking boots
Salomon was not kidding when they said they have made significant improvements on the X ultra 5. The upper looks amazing and more durable, and the outsole is roughly an inch or so thicker than the previous model. I still recommend you switch the insoles for better support so you wonāt feel the rocks as much š

Wide is still way too narrow
My current pair of low-cut hiking shoes are the X Ultra GTX 2's in a size 10. I have a wide fore- and mid-foot with a fairly narrow heel, and those shoes fit me pretty well. However, even with the wide version of these in size 10, the midfoot is still way too narrow, and half my foot is extending beyond the sole at its narrowest point, meaning the midfoot is digging into my arch really uncomfortably. These are not truly a "wide" fit shoe; I've worn standard "D" width shoes that are wider than these (which are supposed to be "EE"). I really wanted to like these shoes, as I'm a fan of the quick lacing system, and the cushioning feels fantastic and my heel is cupped really well; however, the narrow midfoot section is a complete dealbreaker. Please consider revising your sole sizing measurements appropriately.

Very comfortable
Boots are light weight, waterproof, easy to lace up and very comfortable. I bought the 12 wide about 3 weeks ago and have hiked about 150 km in them. I find that you feel rocks more than with my Quest 4Ds but thatās to be expected with a light weight boot which is better suited to smoother terrain. Grip is very good. Hope durability is as good as my other Salomon boots.

Left Boot Eyelet Tore Out
Just unpacked, cut off labels, put on my feet and walked a couple hundred feet out side. Bent down to retire and the eyelet on my left boot popped out. Now I have spent 1 hour on the phone with 2 different agents and I'm waiting to hear if they will accept as a warrantee claim. Checked on line and they are all out of my size. These are my third or Forth pair of Salomon Boots different models. The last pair got holes in them on the top of the boot. However, I wear them for work every day. I like the fit and would like to continue to buy. Hopefully latest problem is not a common problem with the new model X Ultra 5 Mid Wide Gore-tex.

Very comfortable and well fitting
I had the X-Ultra shoes and theyāre also very comfy and a great fit. I needed the boots as well for the rougher, wetter outings and so far, they seem bang on. Looking forward to wearing them out and wearing them outā¦ if you know what I mean!
