This is my second pair of Salomon shoes. I run Fellraisers all year round. Bought for hiking and hunting. But once I wear them, I also look forward to running in them. I live in the Pacific Northwest so we get a lot of rain. During my hunts this fall, my feet stayed dry and comfortable. Traction is premium and aggressive. The boot is lightweight and makes long hikes much easier. At the end of the day, the legs no longer felt heavy. I will update this review once I get more miles on it over the winter.
