The go-to lightweight mid boot across Reddit hiking communities. Lighter and more flexible than the Quest line, with Gore-Tex waterproofing and a sole that bridges trail runner and full hiker.
If you want one boot that handles day hikes, backpacking approaches, and even city walking without feeling like you're wearing bricks, this is it. Reddit keeps recommending it unprompted, and that's the most honest endorsement there is.
“I have a pair of Gore-Tex Salomon X ultra mids that have been great. Nice middle ground between a full hiker and a trail runner.”
