Salomon Explorer GTX Hiking Boot - Men's

By Ranked #582 - Men's Hiking Boots May 8, 2009

These boots were purchased 3 months ago.They are comfortable, and had no break in period, BUT. The rubber outsole is already coming separated from the softer foam rubber it is attached to. I only put thirty three trail miles on them- a 3 day camping/hiking trip on the Illinois River Trail. Far from rugged, super rocky terrain. I was planning to hike the Oregon section of the PCT with them (430 miles) next month, but unfortunately I feel these $154.95 boots are unworthy and would probably end up letting me down half way through my trip.
