Wirecutter's top hiking boot pick since 2018, offering ample toe and heel protection, solid traction, and a gusseted tongue. Consistently recommended across expert and community sources for all-day comfort and durability.
If you want one boot that does everything well and has stood the test of time, the Salomon Quest 4 GTX is it — nine years as Wirecutter's top pick isn't an accident.
“The Salomon Quest Gore-Tex Hiking Boots have been our top pick since we first began testing hiking boots, in 2018.”
