Pros & Cons
Pros
New version uses salomon’s own waterproof membrane. If it lasts 500 miles it's a winner. Perfect for shopping, park, zoo, exploring the woods. It also is very waterproof.
Cons
Main complaint is the poor quality. It seems that salomon products are becoming low quality lately.
The tongue is too narrow and leaves a gap at the top. Constant hot spots trying to get snug around ankle without digging into my instep. The way they lace causes lace bite across the top of the foot. The toe is very narrow as others have indicated cau... Read More
I love salomons but this pair really saddened me. While the traction was commendable, these boots fail to justify their cost for serious hikers.
Highlights
Quality
The quality of the material is exceptional and should last for many years.
They have great traction, nice flexibility while giving support and not much break in needed.
We have returned our fair share of shoes because the arch wasn’t supportive or they weren’t a good fit.
Only downside is the lacing system leaves the boot very open to dirt and debris with a wide opening even when tied tightly.
Price
For the sale price of less than 100, a great deal.
And the price for me was incredible (~$80).
They have a good price point for the product.
Other than that i believe the product is worth asking price.
Shipping
Came in the mail today and i fit the shoes it was a great fit.
I sent it back and the price changed and was more than the original and was delayed again arriving late.
It was delayed due to weather, which is no one’s fault but it got here a week late and was the wrong size.
I walk 8-10 miles a day delivering mail, lately in very cold weather and snow.
Competitiveness
My last pair of x ultras got me up many 14ers, to the bottom of the grand canyon, and through many airports and cities around the world.
Very different cat when compared to my pair of gtx.
The pioneer version seems just as good as the last and with maybe even better comfort out of the box.
