Salomon Women's X Crest Hiking Shoes - Lightweight Waterproof Trail Running Shoes for Women - Perfect for Hiking, Backpacking & Outdoor Adventures

I bought these hiking shoes for a trip to Switzerland. I wore them everyday for 2 weeks and they were super comfortable and kept my feet down dry. I highly recommend them.This is the second pair of this shoe I’ve purchased. These feel like they run slightly smaller but still a great shoe and gives me good support on my walks over all different types of terrain ( pavement, dirt, gravel, hilly and flat)These shoes are the best hiking shoes ever, I walked for miles and had no issues with my feet. I would recommend these to everyone.My daughter was happy these are waterproof. No complaints about her shoes on the few hikes she has done in them. She has long narrow feet and her feet do not slide around in these.After having a pair of Columbia running shoes my wife needed a change. Mostly in arch support. There are a number of choices out there, but finding the arch support she wanted was difficult. The Columbia running shoes offered no support and were affecting how she was standing and walking. She has found these shoes to be a great fit with the arch support she needs. The closest size to her regular 9.5 was the 9 so she was a little worried that they would be too small, but the 9 was perfect. Her only complaint is that the laces are a little too short.I got them for a trip, so as soon as they arrived I wore them for a long walk. No issues were experienced, so I went back to Try Before You Buy and paid for them. Then, they served me well for miles of walking and sightseeing in Switzerland. I just wore them again for hike this past weekend. They work great for my feet which need arch support.I love Salomon but as my feet have widened with age these just weren’t wide enough and seemed a bit too stiff.Very comfortable. I have mild plantar fasciitis and they great support.Really light and comfortable .Updating my original review. After only a couple months of wear these shoes are no longer waterproof. Okay in very light rain but anything heavier seeps right through the top and sides. Super disappointed these didn't even get me through the season.Original review:The fit is pretty good but there is a lot of room in the toe area and it causes a slight fold / crease at the bottom lace loop when I step. This makes a bit of a flopping sound when stepping and could be a weak spot due to the continued folding.Aside from that they are very comfortable, waterproof (been out in heavy rain and walked through puddles), grippy and warm.They are a great shoe for cooler and wet wet weather. I've gone on 10km hikes and ran in them and I've not had any discomfort.I spend a ton of time on my feet, walking many kilometres every day. I replace these each year, and each year, i am glad i bought the same shoe again. They are durable, waterproof, and comfortable.These shoes seemed to be comfortable. I take a 6.5 and thy fit like 7.5They fit a bit big, but good with wool socks for winter. I usually have problems with my bunions, but these are very comfortable. Have hiked many miles in them. I bought ladies 11, which I usually wear.
