Perfect Work Shoes — Comfortable, Tough, and Built to Last!
I use my Salomon Speedcross shoes for work, not trail running, and they’ve been absolutely outstanding. I’m on my feet all day, moving across different surfaces, and these shoes keep me comfortable and supported the entire time. The grip is incredible — no slipping on wet floors, grass, or gravel — and the lightweight design helps reduce fatigue during long shifts.The fit is snug but breathable, and the cushioning provides great comfort without feeling bulky. The quick-lace system is also a big plus — easy to adjust and never comes loose. After months of daily use, they’ve held up really well and still look sharp.

Very comfortable
Amazing product! I did a spartan run with them and they made all the difference. These shoes are a combination of comfort, ruggedness, and style all in one.

Fantastic Hiking Shoe
Ok, so this was a fairly quick purchase, was looking at the next lower level of these hiking shoes but realized they would arrive too late for my trip to Mt. Rainier for Labor Day weekend.Arrival time was as promised, and package was in tact. Always a good start.I received them on a Thursday,(we were headed out to Mt. Rainier on Friday) I picked them up as soon as I saw they had been delivered. I took them back to work, only a few minutes away. I put them on and was delighted they felt like butter!I was initially skeptical of the speed laces which proved to be unfounded over the next few days.Walking around the office and even through the parking lot at work I could tell how grippy they were going to be.First hike was a short walk around Paradise to Myrtle falls upon arrival at Mt Rainier. My feet felt well supported even with a large amount of the trail paved.Day two, we hiked the Skyline trail, which had more dynamic terrain where I became a fan of the speed laces, adjusting to better fit my foot.Day three we hiked the lower lake (Reflection Lake trail) each day I was impressed that I had no blistering no foot fatigue right out of the box, and it was a comfortable shoe to slip on.I felt really confident in the tread.I haven’t had a chance to get them in real weather yet but will soon as the Pacific Northwest promises each year.Over all very satisfied would buy them again!Happy Hiking

Best shoes ever!!
I LOOOOVE these shoes. They are super comfortable and the fit is perfect. Very well made and the soles thickness is amazing for my feet. I don’t hike but I love to walk and I feel like I’m floating. I sprained my ankle recently and my other shoes were not comfortable but these are supportive to my ankle and the compression sock I wear. Definitely buying more.

Excellent Trail Shoe With One Caveat
I've been using a version of this shoe since the Speedcross 3 back in 2015. Overall quality has been great and the fit/support/performance is excellent. And they look great. I just bought my 5th pair.About me: Size 13; 6' tall; 295 lbs (think ex-linebacker build - I could lose some weight but pretty solid)How I typically use them: fast moving hikes; 5 to 7 miles; 1 to 3 times per week; mixed gravel, dirt/muck, roots, rocks, plenty of slippery leavesThe Speedcross are very (VERY) grippy, which is nice considering the terrain I'm often on. I find the support is decent.Comfort level is very good but I will say on the rare occasions where I'm getting over 8 or 9 miles, I will start to feel it. That could be a factor of my weight as much as the shoe. Absolutely no comfort issues up to that point though.The lacing system is easy to figure out and works really well. I did break a lace on a pair a few years ago and was able to buy a replacement for it which lasted until the shoes wore out. No problemThe caveat? My experience is the soles wear out pretty quickly - especially on the SC6. And especially if you use on sand and/or pavement much - which I've learned to try to avoid. I think this is a direct effect of the grippiness of the soles which, again, is excellent. I've gone back to the SC5 this time (price) but both versions have this issue.Still.... recommended.

Great shoes
Excellent for police work, however the tread wears out after about 4 or 5 months of working. In need of a new pair now. Other than that great shoes, I highly recommend.

Wonderful shoes for the slightly above average active person!
I have had a pair of Solomon shoes for hiking that I bought about 4 years ago. They have always fit great, felt awesome all day, and really helped me get around on trails from gravel to rocks. I always have great grip! The way they look has always been a bit... Uh... Utilitarian. Not ugly by any means but not super stylish. They've held up amazing and I still use them all the time. Just recently hiked the whole grand canyon rim with these!When the time came to finally spend some money on everyday shoes, I was racking my head for brands I could trust. I was a fan of Puma sneakers but recently the quality has been kinda trash and I have to replace them like 3x a year.I was happy to see these in all black. They kinda have a Euro sporty look and the same lace-free design that I love about my hiking shoes.Since I have been more active these days I figured a more durable shoe would be better for my needs. They are good looking enough to wear every day but great for the occasional casual 4 mile evening walk. I look forward to many happy months (maybe years?) with these shoes.
