Salomon Men’s Quest Element Gore-Tex, Waterproof Neutral Leather Hiking Boots

They fit true to size, and seem durable. I haven't had a chance to put them through the ringer yet but have done lots of standing for hours in them and some walking. I have flat feet and they didn't hurt *too* bad after. Tread and grip seem to be pretty decent on uneven and loose terrain.The ankle support style they have going is odd, they grip your ankles pretty firmly. I'm assuming over time it kind of stretches or loosens, but for now it is a bit uncomfortable.Breathability seems ok. I'm in Arizona but got these just as the triple digit weather ended, but I haven't felt like my feet were swimming. However the goretex is obvious as my feet were noticeably warm.Tldr, grippy, kinda warm, ankle support is incredibly smug, objectively breathable, also kind of funny color combo

A little big on fit. Not bad thought at all if you wear warm winter socks! The Gore Tex waterproofing and insulator, are as always, on point. No water leaks in snow or creek. Feet stayed warm, but not hot or sweaty. Perfect. They are by far the lightest hiking boots I’ve ever worn, and comfortable is an understatement! Definitely have recommended Solomon brand to family and friends. Great boots, and not as expensive as other “top shelf” winter hiking boots!

First impressions were that I could not believe how light these boots were. I have a pair of low top walking shoes that are comparable in weight. Despite how light they are all of the materials feel super tough.I've had them for a couple of weeks now and I often walk around 3 miles in them per day. I have to say that these are the easiest boots to break in that I've ever owned. First day, I walked 3 miles and was expecting blisters. Instead, my feet were fine. A little soreness around the area above my ankle but that's just from my legs not being used to a taller boot like this. Even then there was no raw spots, blisters, etc.The real test will be this winter as walking to work will test the gore-tex for sure. Normally I would have waited to review these but they've been such a pleasure to wear I wanted to go ahead and encourage everyone even remotely considering buying a pair to just do it.

I have not been impressed with Solomon boots recently (2023). The quality has been suspect on almost every boot I've tried. But with these, my faith has finally been somewhat restored. These are by far the heaviest Salomon boot I've tried, but they are secure and comfortable after you break them in (but they do take a while to break in -- depending on how much hiking per week you do).

I wanted a good hiking boot to look at on the floor by my door that I wont use enough :P These fit great and feel really good. Love the way they look as well.My only isue is one of the shoelaces is shorter than the other so its harder to tie that one. Over all I love them. I only gave a 4 on comfort as I havent broken them in fully yet and my feel do hurt after wearing them for a while. Im thinking once I get used to them and they conform to my feet that should get better

Love the way the interior of this boot feels. I've hiked about 30 miles this week in them and my feet feel great (=no blisters). I really like the lacing system; clever how the no-slip hooks work! Took them out for a "wet run" and mucked around in muddy hills for a dozen miles. They are totally waterproof. They're not the lightest of boots, but the weight is fine. Excellent tread grip. Yes, they're pricey; however, they seem like a great value because I am not worried about my feet during the upcoming hundred-mile hike in the Highlands of Scotland (WHW).

I've been wearing Salomon boots for several years. But I don't like these boots for multiple reasons.First off. They leak.....which sucks when your walking in central Africa, and feet in your boots really really sucks.....There is a strange plastic cup for the heal, that goes over your ankle. When Im going down something steep, the plastic jambs into the side of my ankle, which doesn't hurt......for the first 30 times, then it starts to really hurt.The 90° lace holders, which transition between the top of your foot, and going up your ankle. Are legitimately a pain to get the kaces out of. It's ripping the laces up, and only a matter of time before they snap.You know what else is hard to get, in a really rural area of central Africa...... Yup.... Boot laces......Ha inf these boots for two months, I shouldn't have the chunks ripped out of the soles like I do.... They just aren't very durable. My other Salomon boots just keep kicking, but these...... I dunno..... Theyre just failing for me in multiple ways.I gotta say, the stitching is holding well, and there's no obvious peeling of the soles from the boot. It the fact that BOTH boots are letting water in. Is really disappointing. I was just scooping some water out of a stream as well, was only in the water for a few moments.With it being both boots. It's less of an accident in my opinion, and more of a construction failure.

These boots are lightweight, they breathe, and they are very comfortable. I have some foot pain which has subsided since wearing them. These are my new favorite brand and boot. They're durable as well.

Demasiado bonitas y cómodas, me han servido mucho para trabajar en campo. Muy resistentes

9 meses desde que las compre, las uso todos los días muy cómodas, no les entraba el agua a pesar de que el nivel en ocasiones era por encima del tobillo, muy recomendables

Suuuuuuper cómodas, agarran perfectamente los tobillos y son muy ligeras, hasta mi novia se mando comprar unas, recomendadas, el número viene exacto

Excelente producto y servicio! Me salió más baratas que en la página oficial de la marca

Bon support, très léger et agréable à porter durant la journée. Très impressionné par son côté “waterproof”.Bonne adhérence sur différents terrain.
