Customer Reviews Salomon XR Mission W

No substitutes! This is the greatest sneaker ever! Wish I was wearing these years ago I never would have injured my ankle!

I bought this shoe for trail running, went for a road run to test them out when they arrived and was immediately impressed with the comfort, support, and balance. It is also surprisingly lightweight, which only adds to why I adore this shoe. The lace design is different but I was able to snug them tight and had no issue with loosening or untied shoes, it is a nice feature. I usually run in Mizuno, Brooks, or Asics and run about 20+ miles a week. Trail running is the new training ground and I found a vast improvement in all comfort/ recovery areas after a 10 mile run in the dirt and rocks. Ladies in my running club have the Brooks Cascadia 8, this shoe is better, in my opinion.

These shoes are very comfortable when I am on my feet all day long. I had trouble with the laces due to the locking system at the end of the lace. I actually purchased new laces. I do not believe I will purchase these shoes again.

They run true to size. I wear size 7 1/2 and ordered down a size 7 (per the reviews), and should have ordered 7 1/2; however, I will keep the 7 and wear without socks. They are very light and comfortable, the green/fuchsia is vibrant and perfect. I hope this helps other viewers.

A fabulous shoe! My go-to shoe for running around the ER on my crazy long shifts. Only downside is that my feet can get hot - the shoe doesn't "breathe" well.

Lightweight and extremely comfortable. Great traction. Very colorful. I have wide feet so they fit really well, might fit wide for normal/slender feet. Love wearing them and get lots of compliments and inquiries.

Love these shoes. Ordered my regular size and a bit snug, length wise. May be the orthotic. Have ordered another pair and will try the next half size up. Wore them day hiking and got them wet and muddy. Easy clean up with Shout and a scrub brush in cold water. Have received lots of compliments on the fun colors too.

Bought these shoes to wear to real estate showings, so would not have to tie shoes. Have chronic pain condition and cannot wear dress shoes. They work great.

The Solomon XR Mission W is wonderful for me. Being in my 60's and starting walking and jog in Jan.2013,I must say this is a superb shoe for training. The traction and comfort and support on my legs is the best that I've experienced in other brand shoes. Everyone comments on how they like the colorful looks and comfort styling. My training is jogging and building up to long distance walking and hiking. There can not be a better shoe for older woman with high arches or any aged woman. After jogging 50 minutes 3 days a week and walking everywhere and hiking, I never have any foot pain or discomfort. This shoe the Solomon XR Mission W I recommend most highly.. The super in my building said that he really liked me Solomon XR Mission W.so I referred him to Zappos.com. Delighted Blushing Mary America.

I do a weekly 6 mile hike. And I was looking for some hiking shoes. But I didn't want something that was very heavy. I wanted something that felt more like a tennis shoe. So I read about the Salomon XR Mission being Trail Running Shoes. I decided to try and I am so happy with them. The footbed is wide allowing your feet to expand. They are also light like a tennis shoe, but has the traction of a hiking shoe. I really like these shoes and have been wearing them on my weekly hike for the last 3 months. I would highly recommend them. A friend who goes on the hike with me has gotten a pair and loves it too!

Awesome shoes! They are roomy, but true to size. I teach high impact classes and they are awesome for excellent heel support and arch support. Some of the very best shoes I've ever bought.

These Salomon running shoes are beautiful and comfortable. They tend to run a bit large but not so much I had to order a size down, they just feel quite roomy. They provide great support and are lighter and cooler than my XR Wing shoes. The color is gorgeous.

Great shoes! This is my second pair of the Salomon XR Mission. They feel like slippers on your feet but have great support and traction. I use them to kick around in but I bet they'd be great for trail running.

I absolutely love these shoes! This is my second pair, and if it were practical, I'd have them in every color. I wear them to work-out (semi cross fit style), and they're perfect. I have wide, flat feet and they feel very supportive without making my feet ache. Love 'em.

I bought these for the colors. What I got was color and awesome running shoes. Very comfortable. Stable. Good cushioning. Fun "lace-up."

Wore these right out of the box. So comfortable & super light. My second time wearing them i did a 5K. No problems. Really like the fact that you do not have to tie & untie.

Love these shoes! They are light and comfortable. I usually wear a lot of black but I really love these fun colors. I have worn Salomon's in the past-the Gortex waterproof in the winter and loved them. These are every bit as good for the summer!

Great for running/walking on trails. This is my first shoe from Salomon. I really love them. I have had trouble in the past with my 2nd toe (next to my big toe) losing toenails if I exercise too much. The toe box is very roomy, which I am not used to from other athletic shoes. I am finding that I like this and my toes are much happier. At times I wear a little thicker sock. Love the easy lace ups and on and off. Great colors! Will order again.

I have 2 pairs of the Salomon XR Mission shoes! They are, by far, the best performance shoe I have worn in a long time. They are made especially for women, have a wider toe box, (I have a narrow foot) wonderful support and very light! I am 59 yrs and these shoes offer everything I was looking for in a performance shoe. Awesome support for lunges, workout with weights, all around great support. I can't emphasize that enough, and light! Awesome colors! I wear a 7.5 shoe and these ran true to size for me!! I definitely recommend! I've worn top of line Asics, New Balance but Salomon has them beat in my opinion! Buy them NOW! :)

Great running shoe! I used to run in Asics. These are much lighter. I love the quick lace. I'm on my 3rd pair. With the Asics I bought a 1/2 size up for more toe room for marathon training. With the Salomon shoes, I bought my normal size. Plenty of toe room, but not oversized.

Love these shoes. Bought a second pair in different colors! Order a half size smaller than your usual size.

I normally wear a 5 1/2, but ordered a 5 after reading all the reviews. They fit perfectly! I have wide feet and high arches, and these sneakers are incredibly comfortable, particularly for their arch support. I bought them for dog agility, but wore them all day at an obedience trial (standing and walking around on concrete floors all day), and I couldn't be more pleased.
