Customer Reviews Salomon Quest 4 GTX®

I have worn the Salomon 4d in the past, but it wore out too quickly. I then switch the the alp-x which I loved, but unfortunately they are no longer made. The last year I have tried the Lowa Renagade & La Sportiva Nucleuo, but they just didn't fit my foot well & wore down quickly. I do a lot of hiking off trail while hunting and scouting in the mountains year round & need a boot that will last many miles on rough rock terrain. I have high hopes that the new and improved Salomon 4D will have a bit more durability, but time will tell. I can say that only 40miles in & these boots are the most comfortable thing I have worn in awhile! I don't feel the rough terrain, my feet feel great after hiking all day & they seem to be holding up. Honestly, even if they only last a year I would buy again because I am hard on boots & my feet are finally not hurting after long days. My normal shoes size is 8.5 & in Salomon I am a 8.5 as well because they run a little big. My toes have plenty on room in the toe box while my heel fits well in the heel cup.

These are my go to boots when hillwalking or scrambling. The lace lock system allows me to have the top half of the boot looser or tighter if needed, whilst stopping the bottom coming loose. Comfy straight from the box and grippy on all terrain - highly recommended!

I've had these shoes for a year or so, and they do a few miles a week. They've also been on a couple of multi day hikes and I've found the comfort and support to be amazing. However, they've cracked in multiple places and are now unwearable. I wouldn't expect this from such an expensive pair of boots which have probably only done max 200-300miles, so I can't recommend these to anyone. I also know 2 other people who have had this exact problem, cracking in the same places. So, I'll be looking for some different shoes to replace these.

falling apart after 2 months: Rubber sheath around toe is peeling off on both sides of booth. Only used twice. 2nd Salomon boot that has fallen apart. Wondering about the quality in general now.

This is my 3rd pair of boots like these and my favourite part of them is the lace lock at the ankle, they hold your foot firmly in place when up and down hills - Salomon please do not do away with this feature

Slim feet = stubbed toes on steep descents as my feet slide forward. These use snowboarding boot tech to lock the laces at the top of the foot so the foot is held in place. The ankle laces can be looser to give more movement without the looseness working down to the foot. Brilliant. Bought for when my other pair wear out!

These are the third pair I've owned. Live in rural Minnesota. This is my daily winter walker and my year round hiking and back packing boot. Midwest to mountains. Good traction on ice, over snow, thru wet muck and grippy on rocks. Plenty of room for my orthotic. Nice wide toe box. Laces stay tight so need to and re-lace. Treads wear out faster the more walking on pavement I do. But softer tread means better traction. I've been hiking and back packing for over almost forty years. I appreciate the support and stability for my aging knees, hips and back. Excellent boot. Highly recommend.

I purchased these boots over 2 months ago to use as my winter walking boots. These have become my daily go to when I go almost everywhere. The width is perfect for me and almost feels like walking barefoot. The sole has enough give that it doesn't feel overly stiff and perfect for daily wear. They are warm even in temps of -20F and provide great support when using my snowshoes. I'm contemplating buying another pair before this model is gone.

The balance of stability, durability, lightweight, and comfort of this boot is the absolute best. This is my go-to for big rugged days or even when I need a full high waterproof boot on snowy trails. I even use them for hunting since often times bushwhacking in rough terrain comes into play. They provide incredible ankle support with a lacing system that is snug and doesn't loosen as you hike. The sole is grippy, I get zero hotspots because the fit is dialed, and these things will last years. When I need my most ruggedly capable hiking shoes, the Quest is what I reach for! They're the shoe ya wanna marry, ya know? Loyal, steadfast, full of adventure for the long haul. Love love love.

As it turns out, I *do* like hiking boots. I have been wearing trail runners or low-rise hiking shoes for the past 10+ years, and this is my first pair of tall hiking boots. I was mist stoked about the stability around the ankle without feeling too restrictive, as well as the roomy toe box. These boots are rugged, sturdy, and are without question the most stable-feeling steps I've taken over uneven terrain. I think there's a time and place for all different kinds of footwear, and considering how durable these are, I'm looking forward to stomping around the mountains with these for a long time to come!

They went well for 2 weeks then one got a toe crack. Wet grassed caused soggy feet. Expected much better performance for the price. Now have to purchase something that is better quality.

I have been wearing my Salomon Ultra 3s pretty much every day for walking and hiking and absolutely love them, decided to go for a boot and these seemed super comfy in store unfortunately the amount of dirt and leaves and stones it flicks down the back of the shoe is ridiculous. I have tried everything to stop this but as the back of the boot drops down even on a 3 mile walk I have to stop about 3 times to empty out all the rubbish. An expensive boot and now I'll be buying another pair of shoes!

I absolutely loved these boots! My last 2 pairs were the X Ultra 3 Mid GTX Hiking Boots, both of which failed after a year, but since I hike every weekend I assumed upgrading to these would be a good solution, but these lasted half as long. From May to November I confidently sloshed through streams and puddles, enjoying dry feet and great traction. That was until this past weekend. I felt a bit of a breeze as soon as I laced them up and my right foot was quite wet by the time I'd finished the hike. I rinsed them off to see what the problem was to find that the rubber sealing around both toe boxes was peeling off, and had opened a hole in my right boot for water to seep in. Three strikes and you're out.

These are the most comfortable hiking I've found, and the only ones that fit my little feet. The toe box room and shape are perfect. The only flaw is the upper forms a funnel for debris, but this does not happen when wearing long pants.

Great fit, stabilizes my foot and ankle especially on steep rocky hikes. keeps my feet dry on wet hikes. Sturdy! Have had them over a year and still great

I'm an avid hiker, backpacker and I volunteer with search and rescue and I love these boots. I've never had to break these shoes in. The waterproofing is excellent. I've spent hours crawling around damp forests while raining and my toes are dry. And that's even after the leather was scored by blackberry bushes. I love how the lace hooks are designed, I have very high arches and I can keep the laces over my instep loose while keeping my ankles tighter and more stable. Excellent traction. Generally the insoles are better and have better arch support than other boots, but because mine are so high I buy new insoles. Finally, nice roomy toe bed, never had an issue with my toes bumping when going downhill. Will absolutely buy again when I wear these ones out.

These hiking boots are amazing. They are comfortable, supportive and rugged. The treads make scrambled ng over rocks a breeze.

I really appreciate the support both for ankle and foot. Heel help with lower back support

Bought for Christmas, Excellent boots, robust and comfy as well as stable

I have a slightly wider forefoot that average and struggle with buying quality boots that are up to the job of serious hiking. Look no further, early days of ownership but these are very comfortable. However, I did have to go down a half size from my other footwear.

Very pleased with fit and quality. Comfortable wearing all day.
