Used these for my OTC bull elk hunt in Utah. Hunted for 8 days, the first 4 days was rain/sleet/snow. Feet never got wet. Overall, I climbed over 15,000 feet in mud and nasty brush. I’™ve been using Salomon boots and shoes for years, and these are my favorite light-weight boot from them. Don’t think twice about trying these out!

Bought these for fall hunting in Colorado and they worked perfectly except for the laces squeaking. Climbed up and down rocky mountain terrain and the shoes gripped wonderfully. Super sable seems like it would be impossible to roll your ankle in these. The only feature I didn't get to try out is the waterproofing.

They look amazing! Read the reviews, however I'm so glad I went local and tried a pair on. They have a weird tongue that puts pressure on ankle. Not sure how'd they would fare hiking up and down steep hills. Just didnt fit me in a comfortable way. Try a pair on! I went with Quest 4D much better feel. Get to try them out tomorrow.

Very comfortable out of the box. Take very little time to break in and provide a lot of cushion for your soles with little weight. Did a multi-day hike in Peru with these boots and my feet were blister-free after 15-20 mile days. Would recommend getting the Salomon Kevlar lace system though, the laces they come with aren’t very good.

I broke these boots in four times before I hiked to summit Granite Peak Montana. The boots performed beautifully on the trail, endless boulder fields and on the technical climbs to the highpoint. I will buy them again when these wear out.

I'm bummed. These looked very well constructed and durable, and very light weight. They are too narrow in the toe box area for my feet. I have wide feet (see title). Had to send them back. Will probably have to go back to Merrells.

I normally hike in running shoes, and normally not Gore-Tex lined (for breathability reasons) but picked these boots up. They are really comfortable and easy to break in. I brought them down to Patagonia for two weeks of trekking and hanging around town. They did an excellent job in the variable and often wet conditions and the rough trails. When I had no choice but to get them wet fording a river they dried reasonably quickly.

As a Salomon employee, the X Ultra 3 is my go-to everyday hiking boot. I prefer the mid for a bit more protection around the ankle, and some added stability. Watch the video below to learn more about the X Ultra!
