I wanted these for casual street wear but the reviews were mostly from hard core trail runners, mudders and other people who can probably kick a grizzly bear's ass. Since I had no intention of running the Paris-Dakar Rally on foot I wasn't sure if these weren't "too much" shoe for me. I mean, look at that action figure lacing system, and my tires have less aggressive tread than this shoe, the little colored words on the sides made me think of sponsor labels on a top fuel dragster. I began to wonder if I was worthy of this shoe. Would real athletes call me out as an imposter? A Poser? Would normal people look at my feet and assume I was a dork? (really, my shoes are the least likely cause of this). So, still feeling inadequate for these shoes I placed my order. They arrived 3 days later (probably ran half of the trip on their own) and I got them out and tried them on. Ugh. Too tight! But only at first. After ten minutes they loosened to a snug fit. After two days they fit perfect. No kidding - perfect. I love the feel of them. They are comfortable as all get out. I almost climbed a hill in them just for the joy of it. They feel like they will last forever. It's almost like they are bulletproof. In fact, if a thug ever shoots me I hope he aims for my feet. I'm confident these shoes will protect me. The lace system seems odd at first but after a few times I figured it out so I can do it without taking my eyes off the TV. It's tricky at first but if that thug tries to take them off of you he will be stymied by the lace system long enough for you to run away up a nearby mountain... another plus. The style is fantastic. So many people like my feet now. I catch people looking at my feet, nodding at my feet while nudging their friends, smiling at my feet. These shoes made my feet more popular than my head. They do get hot. Not hot, but warm. I always went for mesh sided shoes before...light and airy. These are like armor compared to those and the trade off is a bit of trapped heat. Nothing too terrible but dark blue on a 90 degree day in the sun is a bit warm. I suppose if I wore them for what they were made for I could cool them by running across a glacier or alpine stream. Instead I prop them in front of my ac vents. But really, it's a minor thing since I live in Ohio and we only have weather that nice on accident. I'm sure I will appreciate that heat trapping during the other 320 or so odd days of usual cool and wet Ohio weather. (Ohio sucks by the way...unless you're a mudder) The description says water resistant. I think they are. I was on a soccer field after a rain (hosting a Jr. Olympics competition, not actually playing soccer) and the wet grass did not soak my feet. I got some very minor dampness towards the end but my last pair of shoes would have sloshing water bags after ten steps so these were great. Plus the snug collar kept the grass clippings from getting into my shoes and turning my socks into rattan mats by the end of the day. While the treads are excellent for quick cuts in turf or dirt they can be a bit slick on smooth wet surfaces. It's not banana peel type slick but just that little bit of slide that makes me think "whew! glad I was not running from that thug on this stuff). In the reviews people talk about the longevity of this shoe in terms of miles or, in some cases, races. Now I don't know how many miles I wear my shoes (or if races to the restroom count) but I fully expect these shoes to last much longer than my previous pairs of shoes. They seem like someone actually designed them to work and last rather than just adding pretty swooshes or springs of shocks on a mediocre pair of nylon/leather sacks and called them shoes. I think these were designed by someone who got fed up with the garbage the big names put out. I wore these to the zoo last week and climbed a pretty high hill in them. Granted, I was in a tram on the way up and on a wooden switchback walkway on the way down but I felt like I could outrun the other people if I had to. The important part was that my feet were comfortable. I did not think about them at all...except when other people stared or pointed at them. So, do these shoes work for a fit, non-racing ordinary 46 year old male like myself? Of course they do. They are comfortable, durable and, I am assuming, thug proof. Plus they have the added benefit of making me look like I am a crazy trail runner...a very careful and clean one, but maybe they will think I am on the way to my first race. Buy these shoes if you even remotely like them. Just don't look at them too many times on Amazon. I swear the prices go up after about 20 visits to the page.. ***** Next chapter***** Ok. I just recently ordered my second pair of these. My little toe wore a hole in the side of my first pair. To be fair, it took a full year for that little piggy to burrow through that material. And even so, he only got to see a little daylight, there was no full blown escape. The soles on that first pair were worn down and thin enough that if I stepped on a dime I could tell you the year. This is not a complaint. I did not take it easy on these shoes at all. I pushed them as hard as a semi-fit but active middle aged man could. ( dang, I just called myself middle aged and felt it was accurate.) I didn't run any races, I didn't climb any gravel quarry trails but I hit a lot of asphalt and concrete. These shoes held up beautifully. They even looked good enough to wear out in public right up until that piggy broke out. Now they will be my lawn mowing shoes, and probably car washing shoes, and also my kayaking shoes. (kayaking sounds pretty bada$$, right? please say yes.) The new pair is grey. Old pair was blue. They look great with jeans, And believe it or not, still draw envious looks from strangers. I was just at a resort in San Antonio Texas last week and the valets at the entrance checked them out as I walked in. Finally they asked what kind of shoe I was wearing. I had to model them for them right in the foyer. I would have climbed a pillar for them to show their awesome ability but didn't want to show off....and get kicked out at the same time. I got a lot of looks on Riverwalk downtown too...but that might have been because I was wearing shorts and showing my blindingly white Ohio winter skin. Again, I would recommend these shoes to anyone. They are the best shoe I ever wore. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Best for slush, mud, and forest trails. Very comfortable. *by N***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 28, 2016* Got these for the Mount Mitchell Challenge, which weather forced down to a trail marathon. There was a lot of slush, mud, and ice on various parts of the trail, along with loose rock on some of the dryer sections. The race starts and ends on a few miles of pavement. The shoes had only a few walking miles before wearing them in the race. Not usually advised but they worked just fine practically straight out of the box.I could actually feel a small loss of traction on the painted lines on the road early on, but the shoes were comfortable and noticably quiet. I worry that the tread would wear out quickly on pavement and do not recommend them for that surface.On the slush and mud and any non-smooth ice surface, they performed great. Glazed ice gave me problems, but there aren't many shoes that can handle this kind of ice. It seems the cleat-like tread digs down and nfinds traction in the softest and loosest surfaces.I am a huge fan of Salomon shoes and ever pair I have owned (Sense Mantra, XT Wings 3, CA Pro 3D GTX) has been comfortable and performed well. I especially like lacing system and the tongue flap to stuff the laces into so they don't flap around.I can't speak to longevity of this pair yet, but with my other Salomons, the tread goes first but the shoes have been nearly indestructible. I will try to update this review after a couple months of use but so far, I am extremely happy with them.Edited/Updated to note that I now have a couple hundred trail miles on the shoes now and they are still extremely comfortable. I have decided that the tread pattern is not great on smooth rocks, where a less aggressive pattern may do better--more contact with the rock face. But on anything "messy" these shoes shine.The tread has held up very well, but I have almost completely avoided paved surfaces. I plan on taking them to a 100 miler in VA in a couple months and have a number of upcoming training runs, so if they don't continue to perform as well as they have to date, I will be sure to update this again.2nd Update: My original pair, after MANY miles of trail, creek, rock, snow, mud, etc... has been retired to yardwork duty now. They are still comfortable, but the tread is pretty worn and the fabric is opening a little on the sides near the front of the shoe. I purchased an identical pair for the above-mentioned 100-miler and used both during the race. Since then, the new pair has become my current trail shoes. Now thatthere is a new model (Speedcross 4) out, the price on these has come down a little, making them even more attractive.One small warning. On my old pair, over time, the "laces" got longer (stretched out?) and once I wore them running without the laces tucked into the tongue flap. Somehow, the grips on the laces on my left and right shoes snagged each other mid-stride and nearly tripped me up. Just another reason to tuck them into the tongue. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Four Stars *by D***W on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 2, 2018* Great trainer. Breathable and grippy.
