Salomon X Ultra 4 Gore-Tex vs Arc'teryx Aerios FL GTX - Women's

We guess the reason behind that is the long period of abuse of the X Ultra 4 on the hard surfaces all the time, whereas the XA Pro 3D was being used on the road or sidewalk and has smaller lugs.We found that the Salomon XA Pro 3D is as heavy as hiking shoes. The X Ultra 4 and XA Pro 3D are almost at the same weight!The Salomon X Ultra 4 is more versatile, and it is a perfect hiking shoe.Bottom line for the Salomon X Ultra 4 GTX vs Salomon XA Pro 3d comparison: The Salomon X Ultra 4 is more Versatile and a perfect hiking shoe

Was extremely impressed with how lightweight these are as well. Overall, one of the best shoes I've owned.

The only issue that i have with the highness hiking will do, if i go backpacking here in arkansas, is because it can get pretty rocky. This does not h...

Overall, the base is wide enough that when you are hiking on rocky terrain, you've got enough of a base here to keep your foot from moving around too ...

Very narrow and the arch is in the wrong position. I have been using Salomon for years now. The new Quest 4 and Mid fit fine but something is fundamentally wrong with the new design of the shoes. I have now gone with Scarpa and Keen which are great replacements

Fit and design - one huge flaw for me, and why I will not be continuing to use these - is the lack of a 2nd eyelet at the top of the lacing. This makes it impossible to tighten down for any heel lift. As someone with slender feet, these shoes did not hold up backpacking (carried about 25#) as my heel kept moving around inside the shoe and I got a terrible blister on the inside heel. This is not a location I typically get blisters which helps me know it's the shoe

Those shoes are comfy, give good support and will stay on your feet very snugly. They are completely waterproof, but also breathable enough, and also ...

So if they get wet that the face fabric gets soaked, so once I'm done that they're gon na be ready to go back out, I will still wear those ones for qu...

5 is a perfect length fit but not wide enough. I would recommend but not to anyone with an average width size.

I've been wearing these pretty consistently the past week and a half, and I think these would be a slam dunk if I had the perfect size. I usually am a 7.5 in women's sizes, but felt that these run a little big. I would probably wear a 7 in these and it would solve most of the problems I have with the fit

On a positive note, these are great winter shoes. Good grip on ice, waterproof and keep my feet warm and dry.

I don’t have high hopes for them in the rain unless I spray them with waterproofing spray. I have goretex sneakers from another brand (not hiking ones) and I think I will stick to them on wetter days, as they have been performing great even on super rainy days in New York.
