Review on Vintage Men's Salomon Authentic Backpacking Chocolate Shoes: Exceptional Style for Outdoor Adventures by James Hess
Ideal for long or one-day hikes.
Fits well with size 13GB, usually wears 12.5GB, wide flat foot, no width issues, made well in Vietnam (but plastic hooks), good rubber heel tread thickness. For the price level you get pretty close to really high quality boots, good value for a good product (only tested about 1 mile out of the box, comfortable out of the box, durable, can't say waterproof) Not I'll say , but like all my nubuck and gortex boots use water repellents, use a Nikwax nubuck and suede protective film.
Pros
- The lightweight and breathable construction makes these boots comfortable for extended wear, while the GORE-TEX membrane ensures your feet stay dry and comfortable in all weather conditions.
Cons
- Boots may not be suitable for people with high insteps.
