Customer Reviews Salomon X Ultra 3

I have owned these shoes for 2 months and have enjoyed them. I was a bit hesitant due to the speed laces and not having traditional laces. I have a narrow foot and traditional laces seem to snug up better than previous use of the speed laces. But, I have adjusted and like them.

When I first received the X Ultra 3, I wasn't excited about the laces but after using them a few times I now love them. I replaced the footbed with an after market footbed which makes the shoe even more comfortable.

Super Produkt; Auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen; Wenn`s passt, dann passt`s!

good shoe i like them alot, comfy and good in most terrains, a tad lacking in snow, but come on they should be at least water resistant eater goes straight through the top of these

I am a fan of Salomon goods. These shoes meet all my requirements in a light hiker. They fit well, are light, great sole. My only complaint is the ridiculous lacing system. It's just a bad idea, period. Everyone knows how to tie a shoe, so there's no need to try and "fix" that. The quick lace system is simply inferior to a conventional lace system. With regular laces I can make adjustments to tightness and specific areas of the shoe. I can replace them easily when they break as well. Because these laces are in essence a draw string, they can only be tightened from the top. Furthermore, because these laces are fine like wire, they dig into the shoe more, specifically up top. So I can't have them tightened enough without hurting my foot. I need them tight enough for hiking. Additionally, I find the lacing garage itself to be a slight encumbrance. I can't say enough bad things about this lacing system. Solomon, I urge you to replace this lacing system with a conventional one. There is no downside to this as I am sure no one will drop the shoe because they missed the this backwards system. The plus side is you will gain more advocates of this shoe whose option of this shoe is high except for the lacing system. Unfortunately, these are going back.

For reference, I am 5' 11 160 LBS and wear a men's size 12 in Salomon shoes. Also, I am avid trail runner and and hiker. I live in Colorado and run and hike on CO's trails year-round. My preferred shoe for trail running is the Speedcross, as I have worn through many pairs over the years. For light hiking, I have mostly used the XA Pro 3D. Similarly, I have owned and worn through many pairs of the various versions of this shoe(XA Pro 3D) throughout the years. I recently purchased a pair of the X Ultra 3 in the Poseidon blue colourway and have gone on several hikes, ranging from four to seven miles, on both dry and snow packed trails. Since this shoes is included in Salomon's 'Hiking Shoe' category, as is the XA Pro 3D(Hiking & Trail Running), my review of this shoe will be in comparison to the XA Pro 3D, since I feel they are very similar. Fit: Compared to the XA Pro 3D, this shoe(X Ultra 3) has more length and width in the toe box area. This extra room is very much appreciated. I feel the current and previous couple versions of the XA Pro 3D are about 1/4 to a 1/2 size short in length in size 12. This is not the case with the X Ultra 3 -- plenty of room in the toe box area. Also, overall, this shoe doesn't feel as narrow as the XA Pro 3Ds. I would not characterize this shoe as wide, but it does have more room than the XA Pro 3Ds. Lastly, the heel area has more room as well. In street shoes, I wear 11.5 B(narrow). So for me, the heel pocket of the X Ultra 3 feels less secure. In other words, my heel doesn't feel as locked-down as it does in the XA Pro 3D. I do experience a little heel slippage with this shoe. Sole: The tread on the X Ultra 3 is superior to the XA Pro 3D. The lugs are deeper. As a result, the shoe grips better in all conditions - loose hard-packed dirt, wet snow, and hard-packed snow and ice. Also, the deeper lugs provide for a more cushioned feel to the shoe. I can hike more miles in this shoe and experience less foot fatigue and soreness. I suppose the deeper, beefier lug pattern also adds more weight to the shoe. This is not a concern for me, as I am willing to trade weight for the improved grip and cushion. Feel: The X Ultra 3 is a beefier shoe compared to the XA Pro 3D. I know that the XA Pro 3D is also marketed as a 'Trail Running' shoe, but I have found it to be too clunky for running. I use the Speedcross specifically for trail running. However, compared to the X Ultra 3, the XA Pro 3D feels more nimble, more maneuverable and smoother than the X Ultra 3. For this reason, in my opinion, the X Ultra 3 is best as a low-top hiking shoe or general purpose shoe. Overall, the X Ultra 3 hiking shoe is an excellent choice for day hikes or perhaps even through hiking. The extra room in the toe box, the aggressive lugs on the sole provides a sure grip in all conditions and added cushions for long days. Some may not appreciate extra room in the heel area and width in the last, especially if you have grown accustomed to the signature Salomon narrow performance feel of their other offerings. However, the X Ultra 3s is a solid, beefy, grippy, cushioned, stable, low-top hiking shoe that can handle any trail condition.
