Yves Salomon Gestrickter Schal mit Logo-Patch Nude | Salomon salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM review

Having tried and tested numerous hiking boots, we still believe that the Salomon S Lab XT-6 ADV low-top sneakers the GOAT in its category. We highly recommend investing in this boot if:

• you need an exceptionally supportive backpacking footwear for multi-day trips
• yves salomon army tie dyed bomber jacket item
• an extra hard-wearing boot for tough terrain

Given how much technology is packed into the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM, it could be too much of a good thing if you need a boot for moderate hikes. For smoother trails and less demanding adventures, we find the Características principales de las Salomon XA Pro 3D v8 Goretex more suitable. It is lighter, more pliable, cheaper, and yet has all the essentials for an enjoyable day hike.

Salomon XA PRO 3D ULTRA 2 GTX Hoka Kaha 2 GTX. A whopping 5 oz lighter, it is also softer, cushier, and more comfortable around the foot than the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM.

To help you cover long miles with a heavy pack on your back, the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM is equipped with plenty of underfoot cushioning.

In the heel, we found that the stack height comes in at 38 mm which is slightly above the average of day hiking boots.

In the forefoot, the boot's stack height lowers down to 20 mm. This, on the contrary, is a few millimeters thinner than the average.

We assume that it was made lower on purpose, to help the boot bend more easily in this area.

Based on our stack height measurements, we see a huge 18-mm difference in height between the heel and the toes. That's about 5 mm higher than the average and may feel too much for some hikers.

Personally, we never found the boot's drop to be troublesome as it gave our heels plenty of impact protection upon landings. And even though it mutes out the ground feel big time, it also minimizes foot fatigue at the end of the long day.

Salomon was never famous for soft cushioning and the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM is no exception. Pressing a durometer against the boot's primary foam, the tool showed 27 HA.

That's exactly the same as the average - neither too firm nor soft. Moderately firm is the best way to describe it.

Most likely you will be wearing this Salomon boot in lower temperatures and harsher climates. For that reason, we had to mimic cold weather conditions by placing the boot into the freezer for 20 minutes.

After that, we repeated the durometer measurement and found that the boot's midsole only firmed up to 32.9 HA, similar to the other hiking boots we tested.

Do expect the boot to feel a bit firmer compared to what it felt like at room temperature.

Measuring the difference in softness, we found that the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM firmed up by 21.7%. That is an average difference compared to the rest of our hiking boots.

Salomon went for a slightly thinner than average insole in the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM. Measuring its thickness in the heel, we got 5.3 mm.

For a medium-width backpacking boot, the Salomon salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM offers a good amount of breathing room in the forefoot. To check exactly how spacious it is, we filled its interiors with custom gel and created a one-to-one mold.

According to our caliper, the widest area of the boot's toebox (between the big toe and the pinkie) is indeed above-average at 98.3 mm. In fact, it puts the Quest 4 into the wide width category! Hikers with wide feet and/or bunions are likely to appreciate the extra space.

Measuring the toebox width around the big toe, we got a more standard reading of 72.1 mm. This implies that the boot doesn't get pointy or restricting towards the toes and has some wiggle room for swollen feet and thicker socks.

The only downside is that this Salomon boot doesn't come in multiple widths. And because its fit is more appropriate for medium-to-wide feet, slim-footed hikers may want to opt for the Salomon XA Pro V8 Trail Chaussures de course Homme or the LOWA Renegade GTX Mid instead.

Vertical space is not limited in the Salomon salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM either. The boot showed a standard toebox height of 27.1 mm on our caliper.

The lacing system is very well integrated into the boot's supportive features. Once we have it all cinched up, the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM braces the foot very firmly.

One of the locking eyelets is placed near the ankle bone. It helps to create a stronger lockdown around the ankle which helps with stability on steep slopes.

Stability is the Quest's second name. There aren't that many backpacking boots that could provide the same level of steadiness as this Salomon offering.

There are so many stabilizing components embedded into the boot but the absolute leader is the brand's proprietary ADV-C 4D Chassis. Wrapping around the heel and sides of the boot, this uber-stiff component clutches the heel and ankle very firmly in place.

As a result, this whole structure prevented our ankles from rolling or wobbling every time we took a step. Having so much stability not only made us feel more surefooted but also decreased foot fatigue significantly over the course of the long hike. That's because none of our energy was wasted trying to stabilize the foot on uneven terrain.

The Salomon S Lab XT-6 ADV low-top sneakers the quintessence of stiffness. Attempting to twist the boot in our hands was to no avail because of the boot's chassis, supportive overlays, and sturdy materials.

For that reason, we rated its torsional rigidity with a maximum of 5 out of 5. This hiking boot simply doesn't have ankle rolls in its vocabulary.

In addition to the stiff base, the Quest also comes with a super rigid and secure heel counter.

Assessing its stiffness in our manual test, we gave it a solid 5 out of 5. We never experienced heel slippage or anything even close to that while testing this Salomon boot.

The boot comes with a fairly wide base that doesn't go over the board.

Measuring the widest part of the sole in the forefoot, we got 116.5 mm. That's a few millimeters wider than average, making our steps more confident on mixed terrain.

Surprisingly, the widest part of the heel wasn't as wide as we expected. With a caliper measurement of 85.7 mm, it is half a centimeter narrower than average.

Actually, we didn't mind the narrower heel of the Salomon Quest because it proved to be much more maneuverable when navigating small rocks.

According to its product description, the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM "respects the natural flexion of your foot." But that just made us laugh because its ultra-stiff built seems to have no respect at all! That's one of the most rigid backpacking boots we've tested in our lab.

Our flexibility tesing machine instantly disproved that statement revealing this Salomon boot's very stiff nature. Its burly construction required as much as 65.7N of force to bend by 30 degrees and that's more than 100% more than it takes an average boot!

The Salomon S Lab XT-6 ADV low-top sneakers built like a tank for the trails and it screams heavy straight from the photo.

Thus, it was not surprising to see 23.4 oz (663g) on the scale when weighing the boot in a men's US size 9. While this is significantly heavier than hiking boots on average, it is an expected weight for a backpacking boot of this kind.

Forget about summer hikes if you intend to wear the Salomon salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM. With its top-notch waterproofing, high cut, and generous padding, there is no room for being breezy.

In our breathability test below, we use a machine to pump smoke through the uppers of both boots to see how easily it escapes through the fabric. As you can see, there is not even a hint of vapor in the Quest. Thus, we gave it the lowest breathability score of 1 out of 5.

As our follow-up transparency test shows, the boot has zero perforations or potential ventilation areas.

The rugged design of this Salomon boot kind of reminds us of a fortified castle with multiple layers of defense (and a moat with crocodiles).

In the upper, the Quest 4 uses a mix of Nubuck leather, sturdy Cordura-like textile, and additional rubberized overlays. As you can imagine, our attempt to put a dent in the boot's upper was unsuccessful, to say the least.

Drilling the toebox for a good 12 seconds with a Dremel, all we got was a minor scratch that didn't affect the boot's integrity at all.

For reference, here is what the same durability test did to a regular day hiking boot from Hoka.

We subjected another potentially frail part of the boot to our Dremel test - the heel padding.

Applying the tool for 4 seconds straight with a consistent speed (5K RPM) and force (3.2N), the result was just as stunning as in the toebox. The lining was nearly unscathed!

Based on how small the damage was, we rated the durability of the boot's heel padding with the highest rating of 5. No need to worry about chafing your tall socks against the boot.

Given how much is expected of a hiking boot of this caliber, Salomon did its best with the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM.

First of all, the brand used a nice and hard rubber compound to make up the outsole. Measuring it with our durometer, we got a reading of 88.3 HC. This puts the boot on the harder side of the spectrum which also means that it is harder to wear out.

We couldn't help but drill the outsole with our trusty Dremel too. After 22 seconds of torture at the highest speed of 10K RPM, we didn't even get through 1/3 of the lug!

According to our tread gauge measurement, the damage was only 1 mm deep.

Considering that the boot's outsole layer is 2.4 mm thick and the entire outsole (lugs included) is 7 mm thick, there is A LOT of rubber to go through before you can claim the pair to be worn out.

The salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM is covered with multiple protective overlays to enhance durability and protect the foot from various outdoor hazards.

Most notably, the boot has a beefy toe bumper. Putting it through its paces on rocky terrain and light scrambling, we were amazed at its ability to keep the toes safe and sound.

Based on our caliper measurement, the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM has a lug depth of 4.7 mm.

Salomon uses its proprietary Contagrip rubber which is not very soft and tacky (as we saw in our hardness test earlier) but we found it to be quite capable on challenging terrain.

In muddy areas, the boot's widely spaced lugs were really effective in shedding the dirt and preventing its build-up underfoot.

The tongue is very adequately padded in the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM. Measuring it with our caliper returned 10.7 mm, nearly the same as the average.

As expected from a waterproof hiking boot, the tongue is fully gusseted in the salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM. The attachments extend pretty high up the shin, allowing you to step into deeper puddles trouble-free.

If you prefer to swap insoles or need a custom orthotic, the boot's removable Ortholite insole allows for that.

In spite of all its ruggedness, the Salomon salomon cross over chukka gore tex botasdesenderismo OSCSM felt pretty comfortable from the inside. The padding, the Ortholite insole, the lining - these all work together perfectly to create a pleasant in-shoe experience. They help to make the break-in period in this boot feel less of a chore.
