I have another pair of Salomon's and have gone through a pair before that, I am just wondering is this a heavy shoe like those or is it a lighter show?

It's definitely a lighter shoe. The Hawks is the most versatile all terrain shoe Salomon has created so far. On the other hand, their lighweight makes them less protective and less durable for an heavy duty type of use. Our athletes love to use it even on technical rocky terrain, mostly for the weight benefit, but they are very skilled and don't need the extra stability or protection most trail runners need. The Hawks is the ideal shoe to make your first steps on easy trails if you're a recreational trail runner, or to attack the chrono if you're an advanced trail runner. I recommend it for runners below 170 pounds

Lighter. The pair of 8.5's I had came in at 11oz each.
