Customer Reviews Salomon X Ultra 360 Edge

I bought these shoes for a 9 month backpacking trip around Latin America as I needed a solid pair of shoes that would last me. These were absolutely not it! After just 3 months the inside heal of the shoes completely came away to reveal a sharp bit of plastic making these shoes completely unwearable. I'm going to have to throw them away and pay for a new pair which is annoying considering the high price tag of these shoes. It looks like others have had similar quality issues so avoid these if you plan on wearing them more than a few months... What's more annoying is because I'm now travelling I'm unable to sort a replacement pair from salomons warranty.. Not that I particularly trust in their quality now.

Great comfort, look good. but after a few wears around the house and in the yard, the eyelits snapped off after i was quite careful with tightening them. disappointing to say the least, as all other aspects of the shoe are quite good.

Got tears inside after less than 4 months of light usage couple of times a week.

It is an excellent hiking shoe with great grip and comfort. I just wish they would make other legacy models in a 14!!!

Hi there, Ive been using this shoe for a little over a month for hiking and walking uses. I love how grippy the shoe is and how good it looks. The speedlace is also an added bonus! While Ive owned many pairs of Salomon Shoes with speedlace, Ive never had a speed lace fail. Ive had 2 pairs of these shoes and both have broke within a month on the speed lace grommet. Salomon has warrantied my previous shoe but it is still annoying. Beware that your speedlace grommet might rip out in the first month!

I am a long time Salomon Shoe owner. I've hiked over 600 miles in the X Ultra 3's, hiked hundreds of miles in the X Ultra 3 Goretex Mid's, and run countless trail miles in several iterations of the Speedcross Goretex. When it was time to replace my X Ultra 3's for hiking sections of the AT, I tried the new X Ultra 4 but did not like the fit. This year I saw the X Ultra 360 Edge and I ordered them. I loved them...the fit was great, like my X Ultra 3's, but maybe a roomier toebox. I took them on my recent 130 mile AT Section hike. At mile 110, one of the laces cut through one of the eyelets, leaving me with a shoe that could not be tightened. When I got home I compared the eyelets on these shoes to my other Salmon shoes, and all of my other shoes, the eyelets are reinforced with plastic tubing...on the X Ultra 360 Edge, they are simply fabric. If you're not the type to put big miles on your hiking shoes, these may work for you, but for my needs it looks like I need to start looking for different alternatives.

So as someone with a long history of wearing XA pro and X Ultras for hiking 14ers in Colorado, I was excited to try out these new 360 edge. The good: comfortable upper with outstanding X ultra outsole. Definitely a bit more mid soul cushion, then traditional X ultra. Better overall feel then ex-ultra 4s. The So So: used to love speed lace system, but Im finding that it tends to come loose more so than in the past. Not awful, but not great. Could still used more width in forefoot and toe area. Doesnt need to be Altra wide but more than this, especially as perimeter rand doesnt stretch much on these. Would still like to see a softer more comfortable mid sole, something with nitrogen infused foam. Doesnt need to be super thick just bouncier. The Bad: Seriously Salomon, 99% of the people will use this for hiking and outdoor walking WHY such a high heel toe drop?? Having such an aggressive drop like so many Solomon shoes do, forces your foot forward, jamming toes into an already narrow toe box. No hiking shoe need more than a 4 mm drop. Listen to your reviews Solomon and stop the drop! Lastly, Solomon has started using cheaper Ortholite insoles versus the ones they previously did. These insoles are a lower quality and do not have the perimeter transition foam around the edges like the old ones. For shoes this expensive just use the good Ortholite insoles.

Deceptive return policy. "free returns" is untrue. You will pay for shipping

Only thing Im disappointed in is your thin insoles.
