Review on πŸƒ Conquer Trails with Salomon XA Elevate Running Shoe: Unleash Your Potential by Hector Sosa

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great shoes for medium feet. If you're high, come in!

Just received these size 11 shoes. Given some of the feedback on the slim fit, I agree. I have a medium foot and they fit well but are tolerable for me and my intended use. For those looking for a trail/alpine shoe these seem to tick the box. The outsole is stiff and stable as trail running shoes should be compared to road running shoes (I prefer the Brooks). I'll test them at the summit in Colorado next week. I'll see how they hold up and report any break-ins. I'm a Salomon fan and agree that they could have made this model a little wider in the toe compared to other models I've liked. Stay tuned!

Pros
  • Traction: The Contagrip outsole with excellent wet traction offers traction in all road conditions, while the climbing area around the forefoot offers more ground contact for traction on rocky terrain.
Cons
  • Clarity
