Customer Reviews Salomon X Ultra Pioneer Mid CSWP

Easy to lace up and secure. Toe box more snug than I was used to, but not too tight. Excellent boot so far! Got it for hiking and hunting.

Excellent comfort and consistent fit right out of the box, as has been the case w/ all my Salomons.

Excellent and durable shoe. Very comfortable and plenty of support.

I bought these to use for tactical shooting classes and hiking. The first weekend after purchase they were put to the test in a two day tactical carbine class. It rained nonstop tropical storm level downpours. Our instructor was from the Pacific Northwest so we moved forward with the class. Shoes were comfortable for two 10 hour days and my feet stayed completely dry. Will be buying more in the future.

This is my second pair, wore out my first pair, having tons of fun.

I purchased my x ultra 4 mid kamel hiking boots they are SO comfythat I had to purchase these too!!! BEST hiking boots EVER!!! Always receive compliments

I love these Salomon hiking boots. They are sturdy, breathable, comfortable and very well made. The grip on the bottom is quite impressive. The boots really grip to rocks when I'm hiking and are great for preventing slipping. Invest in a good pair of boots like these and you won't be disappointed!

I recently bought my third pair of these shoes. Previously I bought them primarily as a lighter-weight alternative to heavier or less durable backpacking boot. I wore them on week long trips into the Eagle Cap Wilderness Area in eastern Oregon, always the first week of June with a group of high school students. The elevation was high enough that we frequently dealt with snow and always with wet and muddy trails. We crossed several snow-melt flooded creeks on downed trees, which are wet and mossy, or on rocks in the stream. I felt like I had generally had good traction. I never deliberately waded into the water with these shoes, but sometimes I might have had a missed step one foot immersion. I don't recall that this presented an unusual wet foot problem. Now I wear them to my job at an electrical supply distributor and on local day trips into the desert around Carlsbad NM. People say I should wear high leather boots because of rattlesnakes, but I personally haven't seen any yet. These shoes are light, comfortable, durable. I appreciate the more muted visual tones of this particular style since I don't just wear them in the woods.

I know that trail running shoes are all the rage these days but these boots are pretty light weight for what they are. The ly offer great ankle support for carrying heavy loads over rough terrain and are about as comfortable as a train runner once they break in.

The X ultra pioneer ClimaSalomon is without a doubt the most comfortable supportive boot I've ever owned. My pedometer count is about 25,000 steps a day at work I can't thank you enough for the design of these boots. customer for life.

Very pleased with the sho. I highly recommend them. Very comfortable and waterproof.

I bought these boots a number of years ago (6+ years) and have had a wonderful experience. I hike at over 800 miles last year and these boots still have more life left in them. I've worn them through rivers in Montana (kept my feet perfectly dry), on glaciers in Iceland, on slick rocks in Moab, up many peaks including Mt. Whitney, Grand Canyon rim to rim, etc etc. I will buy another pair if they ever wear out.

I purchased this product because of my previous experience with Salomon hiking shoes. Lightweight, rugged, constructed well. My hiking, usually solo, consists of all types of terrain, elevation and distance. The last thing I need is footwear that doesn't meet the challenge. Salomon does not disappoint.

I've tried too many hiking boots to count over the past month, and pretty much all the mid Salomon boots, and the Pioneer's came out on top. I've got about 30 miles in them already and they are so dang comfortable. For the first 5 or so miles the front/toe area was really cramped from the cushioning, but after they broke in, there is now wiggle room and feels great. They're a bit thicker on the sole, but not so much that you don't feel anything - Enough to help grip and feel the terrain. They grip great on climbs and rocks. I'm definitely happy with the purchase. Long hikes my feet feel great, and that's what it's all about.

I have had 3 pairs of the pioneer, the waterproofing and overall integrity of them last forever. They are very comfortable for hiking or everyday use. I even jog in them occasionally whenever I cannot find my running shoes. I am typically an 11.5, but the sizing seems to run a bit small, the 12' fits me better. I wish they still had the option without the pink highlights.

I bought these boots to hike the Arizona Trail. Many passages were extremely rocky and the boots stood up to the rough terrain without any issues. When other hikers were replacing their shoes, I was able to do the entire 800 miles with one pair of boots.

This is a great low boot to take early morning hikes in the dew. Keeps out the low weeds and of course waterproofing keeps the feet and lower ankles dry.

This pair I purchased, apparently I did not notice how the tongue design was on these shoes. I do not prefer it, I really enjoyed the last pair that I purchased

Still early so only thing I can comment on: Bought these bc they looked to be very similar to my other Salomons, but immediately noticed the very cheap insoles compared to the Salomons I bought two years ago. You will need quality replacement insoles immediately, so factor that into your price calculus.

I have never had in issue with footbed width on Salomon but these are so tight on one foot they are bruising the top of my toe. Otherwise they are a nice lightweight, well made boot.
