SALO X Ultra 4 MID G - L41624900 Quarry/Black/Legion Blue

I'd been after some lightweight mid-height walking boots for a while. Nothing too heavy but with additional ankle support. After a great experience with some Salomon Millstreams I thought these might do the trick and I'm pleased to say that I wasn't wrong. They're comfortable from the off (probably thanks to the cloud-like Ortholite insole) and I didn't find there was any breaking in time required. They also kept my feet dry whilst submerged in water at the beach. Contrary to some other reviews, I'd say my usual size was just right. I wear them with normal everyday thickness socks and found them to fit perfectly (I would agree though that they run fairly warm, so probably wouldn't wear them with thick socks unless in winter). There is ample room in the toe box as others have described (I'm personally a huge fan of that) but most importantly there's no movement in the ankle/heel resulting in happy feet with no blisters. The ankle support is great too and just what I needed. Thanks Salomon. I am a die hard fan and will keep returning all the time you're producing amazing footwear like this.
