 These shoes have carried me through a lot of Ultra marathons and they continue to carry me as a train up for the next one. I'm hoping Ultra does something about the tongue and the laces because if they do, these puppies might actually get a perfect freaking score. Now remember, shoes and gear and nutrition are so different for everyone. People's feet, bodies, biomechanics, their stomachs

 Now, I've heard a lot of people going back and forth about the durability of Ultras, but these Olympus fours are absolute beasts. I have well over 300 plus miles in this shoe or in this pair of shoes in this red pair of shoes, and they have no real bad significant damage. I've ran this pair of shoes into the freaking ground, through snow, rain, up mountains, on loose gravel roads, pretty much any condition that you could possibly think of. The tread, of course, has some wear and tear, especially in the middle of the foot, where it's a little bit squishier, but it doesn't seem to affect the performance that much

 That's when these little corks of this gear really become apparent. So let's dive right into it and let's look at the Olympus Fours from Ultra. These shoes have been out for quite a while now, but they did just release some new color schemes so it is safe to say that we have a couple more months until they release the 4.5 I personally have had two pairs of these shoes and I've worn them for a combined amount of over 500 plus miles total

 So durability. I'm gonna give our first five out of five. So there we have it. The Olympus forwards are coming in with a great score of 13

Altra's Olympus 4 In-Depth Review - After Ultramarathon Review - 500+ Mile Review

5 for about 600 miles before I got the Olympus. One can put in a 3/4 shoe insert to create the arches in the shoe that you want. I only have a 50 miles on the Olympus but I love their cushioning so far.

I use La Sportiva Wildcats, but I have a few complaints:

* By the end of a long day, the soles of my feet are quite sore.  There are no blisters or hot spots, they just feel as if they've been crushed.  My pack tends to be pretty light, so I don't think carrying too much weight is the issue.  I don't know if it's the shoes' fault; maybe I just need to toughen up my feet.
* They seem to dry pretty slowly, even though they're considered one of the fastest-drying La Sportiva models.
* I'd prefer a slightly wider toe box.

The first issue is the one I'm most keen to solve.  I'm seeking recommendations for a shoe that:

* Fits similarly to the Wildcats (but with a bit wider toe box, ideally)
* Is gentler on the soles for long days.  (Not sure what this requires -- more padding?  Less heel drop?)
* Dries as fast or faster

I've tried the following shoes:

* Salomon X Ultra 3 Low Aero: rubbed badly on my heels, causing severe blisters.
* Topo Ultraventure and Mtn Racer: fit pretty well, but I think a bit high-volume for my feet.  I got numb toes while wearing both of these, which may be because I had to tighten the laces too much (to compensate for high volume?).  They also felt awkward and "slappy" while running, particularly on downhills.  And they didn't seem to solve the issue with sore soles, although they might have been *slightly* better than the Wildcats in that respect.
* Altra Olympus 3.5: caused pain in my arches and felt somewhat awkward/unstable.

ISO shoes like Wildcats but gentler on the soles of the feet

 My problem was finding after market high arch orthotics that fit their shape. If I had size 11 or 12 ee maybe eee I would have bought Sole Pro Thin or Sole Karnizes size 14 wide's and cut them to shape.

I have very high arches. Like, top 5% of the population high haha. Any advice?

I have yet to buy a hiking trail runner, and was going to buy the Altra Lone Peak 5s because they're on sale and everyone loves them, but heard a few YouTubers say that they had to find something else because "the zero drop was too much on their high arches". Now I'm hesitating pulling the trigger.

Anyone had success with sticking with Altras, but throwing in some insoles? I hear the Superfeet Greens are good for high arches, but what about the Trailblazers?

The YouTuber I was watching switched to a pair of Topos and liked them, does anyone have any input?

Thanks so much in advance! Your advice could keep me going on my PCT thru coming up haha

If it ain't broke, don't fix it is the mantra Salomon lives by regarding the legendary Speedcross line. The newest iteration, the Salomon Speedcross 6, includes minor design tweaks that improve upon the already great platform without reinventing the wheel. Long known for its aggressive outsole and unrivaled traction, designers modified the rubber compound to improve performance in muddy conditions. They fine-tuned the sagittate lug pattern for an even better grip on mud, rock, and everything in between. This new version is slightly lighter than the previous model, updating the upper to include more mesh for improved breathability. But don't worry, the Speedcross 6 still offers a glove-like fit straight out of the box. We're fast approaching a decade of running in these shoes, and our heart only grows fonder for this beloved trail runner.
Despite our gushing, we still have a few criticisms of this specialty shoe. Our biggest carry-over complaint between the previous version and the Speedcross 6 is the overly-assertive and outdated drop design. With a thick heel counter and 10mm heel-to-toe drop, this shoe is particularly unstable when running downhill. Although the breathability has improved by tweaking the type of mesh over the instep and forefoot, the Speedcross is better deployed during the cold weather months or high-altitude runs through the mountains. On the flip side, with other, less supportive, and less comfortable shoes pushing into its weight class, we no longer complain about the heft of the Speedcross 6. There is no better option for those who like to run off-trail, over snowy mountains, through muddy river bottoms, and up steep, rocky crags.

  These shoes are amazing. love the laces and love the feel.  However, like knobby tires on a bike or car, these wear super fast on asphalt. As much as I like them, I feel reluctant to wear them on the street because they wear down so quickly

great but wear out quickly

  Another thing with the insole... you can walk without it, but don't try replacing it other insoles

 When wet, however, it is another matter.  Salomon. Please sell the insoles! It is a real issue.  Update II: I decided to do a serious test to see just what is up with these insoles

Best Shoes I've Ever Owned.

 This shoe, of course, shares many of the same characteristics as previous generations, counter-grip outsole, sensor-fit construction, energy cell midsole, compound and of course the famous quick-draw lacing system that has helped to make Salomon shoes so iconic. After all, if it's not broke, don't mess with it. Best suited to mixed terrain, especially soft and muddy ground, an updated outsole means that the Speedcross 6 sheds more mud more quickly than ever before. Plus, an improved lug pattern with 5mm lug depth means it delivers an even better grip on wet and muddy surfaces

 The Speedcross 6 is a neutral fit and has the same 10mm drop as its predecessor, with a height differential of 32mm at the heel to 22mm at the toe, which is slightly lower than the Speedcross 5 at 35 and 25mm. It's also a much lighter model, weighing in at 262g compared to the 320g for the Speedcross 5, making this a more appealing shoe for both training and racing. So here it is folks, the one we've all been waiting for, the new Salomon Speedcross 6, our go-to, all-round, super reliable, tried and tested trail running shoe.

 The Speedcross needs no introductions. Staying true to its legendary routes and trail status, this version is lighter with an even more powerful grippy connection to the ground and faster mud evacuation, featuring a revamped upper that's both functional and fiery and complete with the classic Speedcross comfort.

 In a world where we are used to our favourite running tubes being updated every year, three years without change is very unusual. So here we are to take a more in-depth look at the all-new Salomon Speedcross 6, the latest version of this iconic trail running franchise. The Speedcross needs no introductions.

Salomon Speedcross 6 Review - The Best Trail Running Shoe?

 Waterproofing looks good. The footbed is a bit narrower than I like for stability, but frankly if I were just to need a shoe for trail running on rugged trails, I'd run these for sure. Pretty good protection for toe/heel.

seems like a great pair of trail runners

These type shoes are made to fit tight. Not length but around your foot. You need to tighten them down and they “lock” your foot in nicely and after a couple weeks they conformed to my foot. They feel very comfortable after what I assume was the break-in period

... probably too many! The tightness I mentioned really comes in handy running over uneven ground like rocks, mud, up and down steep inclines

 If they last like I expect them too I think the price although high is worth it. I will be doing many runs so if anything fails or my review changes for the worse I will update immediately. Thanks for reading and I hope it helps someone who is on the fence about these.

Trail runners best friend

The shoes are excellent in all but one respect: the ridged soles slip on wet rocks. Great fit, cushioning, construction, quick tie laces. All good EXCEPT: if you need to walk on rocks that are even a little wet or mossy, watch out. You will land in the drink

Be Careful!
