Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Sylan GTX

I've had the Sylan GTX for around 2 months now and I couldn't be happier with them. I have about 50 miles on them so far and they seem to be getting better with each run. They feel remarkably supportive and with an aggressive profile, they handle variable terrain with ease. The shoes have a bit of a high platform and very pronounced rocker which is has been great for performance but takes a bit of time to get used to. Out of the box, they'll feel pretty ridged but after a couple miles they'll ease up to the perfect fit. The GTX model has been nice far for wet, muddy days and I haven't had much issue with moisture build up in the shoe with it being Gore-Tex. I did notice that the heel felt a bit shallow and I was getting a lot of slippage but once I laced the shoes up to the top hole, it seemed to combat that issue. I would say on future models however, this would be worth looking into. Overall, I've been super stoked about the Sylan GTX and couldn't be happier with how they've performed. For what it's worth, my pace has improved since wearing these... could just be mental... could be the shoes.... could be that I've eaten way less ice cream lately... who can say really? Take it as you will. Great shoes and I'd highly recommend them.

Please make woman size 11 I really want these. Big foot so sad.

In addition to being visually aesthetic, the Sylan GTX Shoe is super comfortable and functional. I've already taken my Sylan's out for a mountain run and feel confident in their design. Really looking forward to more adventures in these shoes!

Purchased as a gift for a friend.they loved the feel & construction of the shoe. Breathability & traction were also a big selling point. Thanks for helping me score major points with this gift!

Super comfy and supportive for my high arches. I went with my regular size as I found it fits perfectly on my narrow foot. Durability so far so good on my local trails.

Used this shoe running by and it kept my feet warm and dry in the wet snow!! Game changer.

Excellent, durable and waterproof trail runners! Still going strong at 1000km of trails!

I tried the Sylan Gore-Tex for about ten runs and I appreciated the feel of the shoe from the very first use due to the propulsion effect you immediately feel thanks to the shoe's design. I really appreciated the foot support, which is particularly noticeable during downhill trail running

I have been using my Sylans for some time now, and I love them. At the beginning, the feel was a bit strange because they have rocker bottom soles, but once you get used to it, it feels normal. I used them for a hike where I really tested the waterproof functionality, and I was amazed at how well it worked. There was even some snow on the trail, and I wasn't slipping.

Shoe looked clunky on my size 9 foot. Much cuter online. Returned.

I love these shoes great grip and waterproofingThanks so much Arcteryx you win again

This was my first time using an Arc'teryx shoe for a run. I thoroughly enjoyed the rocker and felt the difference compared to a normal shoe. I couldn't believe how lightweight the shoe was as well which made a big difference for me. I had to size down for this shoe to fit the length of my feet but unfortunately the shoe felt a little narrow, I may have to do a half size bigger as I had a little pressure on my feet.

Love these. I sized up half a size but they're super comfy and very supportive especially for someone with a collapsed arch. The colour is gorgeous and I love the pocket in the tongue to hide the laces.

I bought these a couple of weeks ago. The Black and tan color is great. Super waterproof and grippy. The rocker feels great. I had a really hard time with how much my heel slips in these. The "sock" feels too short, or the heel is too short. I tried doing a lock lace and that didn't help much. I feel that after wearing them for more than a couple miles that I will get a heel blister from all of the movement and rubbing. Such a bummer, because everything else about these shoes is perfect for me. Hopefully they fix it in the next model. I usually wear a 7.5 or 8 and I did get a 7.5 in these.

I liked the waterproofing, weight and design of these shoes but Instantly they felt as if my feet were pronating and my knee is still hurting after wearing for 5 hrs. Strange!
