Description
Get ready to power through uphills and descents with this mid-cut GORE-TEX version of the updated X-ULTRA 4. It is as agile as a trail-running shoe but with all the stability, grip and waterproof protection you need to tackle technical terrain. Equipped with a new chassis, the shoe is even better at protecting sensitive articulations without compromising freedom of movement.
- Contagrip MA is built for the widest variety of surfaces. It balances both the geometry and the rubber compound to deliver confidence on wet, dry, hard or loose surfaces, and offer long-term durability.
- ADV-C Chassis: Protecting ankle articulations on the outer foot, this chassis provides extra stability while also keeping the front of the shoe flexible for a more fluid ride.
- Active Support: These mobile wings help hold the foot in place and accompany its movement, adapting to its shape and volume.
- Chevron lugs: Lug design with deep penetration and multi-directional grip, improving traction on soft surfaces like mud or loose dirt.
- EnergyCell: A high performance EVA foam that provides shock attenuation.
- PU coated leather: A polyurethane coated leather that protects it and makes it stronger to last longer.
- Water Repellent: A special treatment is applied to provide extra protection, ensuring that the fabric does not absorb water during light rain and showers.
- Mesh and textile lining: A soft, breathable lining for extreme comfort.
- Gusseted tongue: The tongue is connected to the upper on both sides, preventing debris from entering the shoe, and keeping the tongue centered.
- Protective toecap: A protective piece of rubber, leather or synthetic material over the toe area.
- SensiFit cradles the foot from the midsole to the lacing system, providing a secure, snug, and virtually customized fit all around the foot.
- Protective mudguard: A wrap of leather, synthetic or rubber around the base of the foot that protects the lateral and medial sides of the foot.
- Molded OrthoLite sockliner: provides superior cushioning, as well as breathability and durability, to upgrade the comfort and performance of our footwear.

Almost the perfect boot!
I absolutely LOVE these, so much that there is most likely another pair (and color) in my future. Only two small gripes: 1) I wish there was one more lace cleat or that the laces were just a little shorter. An easy fix with shorter laces, I just can't seem to find what I'm looking for as of yet. ...

Second try still garbage
My second try at this shoe . Literally opened the package , tried on shoe and sent back . Poor quality , the inner fabric on the sole was glue stitched into a hump . ?!? Don't believe the hype on this brand . !!

So far so good. Quality is great
I bought a pair of these and a pair of hokas. The hokas are a little more comfy but already getting holes and ripping. These shoes seem very durable and high quality. Gortex is the best. Both purchased about a month ago.
Great shoes as expected
It is not very comfortable as an everyday walking shoe, but it is worth it.
SURPRISE!!
Bought this for my husband…he loved it! Fits well .. no complaints, in fact, he looks forward to our Saturdays hiking.
Great product for all
Bought these for my Dads anniversary gift as he is hiking the West Highland Way in Scotland. He loves them and has nothing but good things to say.
Very light
Haven't taken them out in the back country yet. But I have been training in the with my pack. Very light very comfortable.
Color, style & quality
MY husband is on his third pair. Great colors to choose from, great style, and excellent quality.
Not bad, need more time to get to know them
Purchased on sale a few weeks ago. I've been stomping around for a bit. I have a pair of quest mids going strong 7 years. And they are awesome. These ultras run a little long. Maybe a half size or so by direct comparison with the other Salomon sneakers and boots I have. I don't know for sure until they are broken in and I log a long hike but they feel nice enough. I Always buy sale colors and these ones I would buy again over all black.
