Customers Say

Customers find these hiking boots comfortable, with soft soles and no blisters reported, and appreciate their durability, with one customer noting they're the best made Salomon boots. They provide good ankle support and are very light, with plenty of room for wide feet and a true-to-size fit. The boots keep feet warm and dry, and one customer mentions they work well with insulated socks in the snow. However, the grip receives negative feedback from multiple customers.

I bought these Salomon quest element boots about 8months ago after previously buying cheaper makes that split after about 6 months. I liked the high cut and have a pair of Salomon trail running shoes that are a great fit (size 9) so thought these would be similar. Wore them couple of time walking the dog just to break them in and felt comfortable straight away, a bit rubbing at top of the boot but this was sorted by just slackening laces at top of boot. I like how the boot holds in place around the middle of the foot so plenty room in toe space and even on steep descents your foot doesn't slide forward so toes don't press against front of the boot. I have done a lot of hill walking over past 8months in all weather and feet have stayed dry even through boggy marsh and did a 3 day hike over 67 miles with 15kg pack without any problems or blisters. There is no sign of any splitting or sole coming away or burst stitching love the support they give your ankle and amazingly comfortable. Only issue I've found is grip not good on wet rocks and tread has worn down quite quickly on the heals ( see pics) would buy Salomon again but probably quest4 gtx to see if grip on wet rocks any better.

Very comfortable boot Roomy toe-box. Padded ankle - feels good on leg. Wish it could have a little more cushion inside - but still is comfortable/

I've tried a lot of boots, but the Quest series seems to work best for me. I buy them a size larger for long hikes, and they fit perfectly. I only wish they could be re-soled - the soles wear out way before the uppers.

Asolo (the leather ones seem to fit best. The synthetic ones seem to be a bit smaller.)

A bit clumsy and felt awkward at fiirst but needed to break them in. Now, after few hours of hiking they're very comfortamle and fit perfectly. Very light and supportive, feels like "ready for war" :)
