Customer Reviews Salomon Outline Mid GTX

Although these shoes are very comfortable, light weight and breathable, they are NOT waterproof or even water resistant for that matter. I live in the Pacific NW. The first time I wore these outside, it was not raining but the ground was wet from previous rainfall. My feet were soaking wet when I returned. If you are hiking in dryer climate, then these will be great but do not even consider them if you will be experiencing rain or wet trails. Disappointed for sure.

I'm obsessed - I bought these in both colors! I most often wear size 6, but the 5.5 fit like a glove.

I’m usually a Merrell girl, but they were out of stock in my size. I took a chance on these and was pleasantly surprised. Comfy straight out of the box and had no pain or blister issues when I took them on their 8 mile maiden voyage. That hike had some shallow river crossings, and they are in no way waterproof, but they are fast drying. Would definitely repurchase.

The sizing on ZAPPOS is messed up - I ordered a womens size 9, wanting an EU 40. I got a mens size 9, EU 41.33. If only Zappos would permit ordering European shoes in European sizes, this problem would not occur. As the exchanges system uses the same misinformation, I will have to return and purchase elsewhere.

Put them on and what first seems to be a snug fit will change as these Salomon Outline Mid GTX mould to your feet. Glad I didn’t return them. They are super comfy as I hike in Utah’s Wasatch Mountains.

Just got these so I can’t review performance just yet. So far comfort: 5 stars; looks; 5 stars; sole/tread; 5 stars (I’m very particular about tread not being too smooth). I usually take 6 or 6.5 (older Ahnu hiking boots are 6.5; current ASICS running shoes are 6.5). Got these in 6 as it was “recommended” size, and 6.5 was unavailable. Nice that insole is removable, if desired. Fit seems very good so far with a thin sock, so I’d say they are a tiny bit on the large side. Not sure they are waterproof but I mostly hike in fair weather. The only slight negative so far is that the tongue doesn’t seem to be quite wide enough to seal the front of the boot. Bottom line; comfy, super light, good-looking casual hiker with excellent tread.

I’ve ordered a 1/2 size down. 9.5 feels too large. When looking at the label the Euro size is 42, definitely too large. Hoping the next 1/2 size down fits better...! Besides that, I like that they are light weight and am counting on them being waterproof! Will know only after I wear them in the rain.

Super lightweight and generally comfortable. Looks great too. I could not get the right balance of arch support with my inserts although the inserts fit in nicely. It would be a great light hiking shoe for people that don’t need quite as much arch support as I do.

Since there was NO lacing at the ankle, the shoes slipped on my heel--even though I don't have a narrow heel. The material pressed down uncomfortably on my toes. Therefor they were returned.

Wonderful light hiking boots. Comfortable immediately. Highly recommend.
