I’ve spent many long days over the past few years wearing Salomon Quest 4D GTX and have been pleasantly surprised at their performance. Finding a boot that spans the needs of multiple activities in a variety of terrain can be challenging, but these are the best I have found thus far for a lightweight all around hiking boot.

Best boots I’ve ever owned.
I have the X Ultra 4 GTX.
Three months and 500km later and the goretex membrane on both shoes has a hole/tear on two different spots. Very very dissappointing.
And this just from hiking normal paths. Not alpine. No rough stuff.
600 miles is pretty damn good for modern hiking boots, and those treads don’t look anywhere near as bad as others with fewer miles.
I have had my first pair for years and just ordered a new pair. Seal Team 6 was using them I was told, thanks for review.
I have a chance to buy salomon quest 4D gore tex forces 2. Thoughts on making them my go to hiking boot in Utah year round?
The best sock system, at least according to most militaries, is a wool sock over a tight silk sock. It eliminates friction on your feet entirely by making the silk sock essentially a second skin layer.
Good review..
remove those hooks from the side and use the bullet holes to lace up 9 days ago i took a drip when they clamped to each other witht he other boot i was lucky i was at my house i posted what happen to me on utube to warn people of this called Dangerous hiking boots check it out my leg and ancle is in a hell of a state and i will now be off my feet for upto 4 weeks im glad i was not up the mountain when it got me or it would have been a difrent kettle of fish so please remove them hooks from all ur boots to be safe or if it does happen to ya u will rem this plea
Can you run micro spikes and crampons on these?
Mine fell apart after only 3 months use
They only last 600 miles?
Do you wear these during the summer or do you have a different pair for hotter weather?
I’ve had Salomon boots delaminate in a year, but my Columbias are still good after 3 years. What is going on? I think a hiker’s weight has something to do with it.
The older version of this boot was able to give me 1260 miles in 2020. The newer version has only last 134 to 150 miles before delaminating in the toe area. Thought is was a fluke and returned for another pair. Same thing. Really unfortunate because I have used nothing but this boot for several years!
I have used those boots for years, hiking and working in them. I am 75 and have hiked and backpacked all my life and these are the best boots I have ever owned, and I have owned some very expensive ones.
my laces are already stripping on that lace corner halfway up the boot where it grabs the lace, should I find kevlar laces or something stronger?
Great to see such a talented Southeast Idaho Native. You do great work Chase!
In the far past 40 years ago leather upper was stitched to the sole. Every pair of boots I have bought in last few decades have cheap glued soles that fall apart in a year. They are getting worse each pair I get. This solomon has all the pit falls of others , the actual sole is quite thin, glued to a foam section which is glued to a leather and fabric upper. I am amazed that sole lasted 600 miles. I expected the glue to give way on the sides as all boots do now. I might try these. But I am seriously disappointed in all boot brands. Shoe laces used to be leather and stay tied, now the laces are nylon and come untied so you have to double knot. Non of the boots today are made in america.
I’ve been back and forth across the US on foot, 7,000+/- miles in the Merrell Moab 2. $100, Not Gor Tex, but the basic model and they are a solid set of footwear for the journey. What journey? Any one you’re going on.
Gor Tex makes the feet sweat and stink. There’s no reason to spend the extra $$$ for boots that are going to hold the water in as well as out.
*This is my opinion. I am NOT a military ”operator” in the field, I’m not a Ultrarunner, or peak-bagger. I have however been homeless and someone who needs both daily footwear that will last, and boots that will allow me on a job site as day-labor. The Merrells qualify and will save you some cash for the bean burritos for 1.breakfast, 2.lunch and 3.dinner.
600 is not mutch at all. It is like going 3 miles every other day and your shoe will be done in one year?
Hello Chase, love your videos! Was wondering if there is a chance you can review the Salomon Quest Tracker GTX? (article ref. L47605500) I walked into a Salomon store and they seem to be heavily promoting this new (?) shoes but I can’t see reviews about it online. More support to your channel
Edging heh-he heh, while loaded heh-heh
Thanks for this review, really well made. Never heard about that trick to let shoelaces tied, I will use that from now on!
Hi there, would this boots be okay tu use in temperatures somewhere between 30 and 35° Celsius or will it roast my feet?
Many thanks
Man, my old black leather jump boots lasted me over 1000 miles. They were the best boots I’ve had. These modern boots just last.
600 miles sounds impressive but I’ve had 30 dollar walmart boots that I walked over 800 miles in.
Couple good tips
10/10 thanks alot
Is it possible to resole the soles?
Usage experiences from actual users are really helpful, this was really helpful cheers.
I have some on now. I have two pairs. Love them. I have used the ones I have on since 2017. Starting to get pretty worn. I save the good ones for when we go out to dinner or friends
A good boot for edging while you’re loaded is really nice
Great review how are they for resistance with impact. how much cushion do they give?
What’s the best water proof hiking boot .. I need them for work
Nice review. I’m also in Idaho and looking forward to seeing how my pair hold up.
you got a permit for those crampons?
Can I use those in the snow too?
I’ve got over 1000kms on mine and they’re still going strong, best hiking boots I’ve ever owned.
How about wearing them in the summer? 68 -86 F are those not to warm?
Would you the size you normally wear, or size up? I’ve read conflicting information about Salomon boots. Great review!
600 miles anbd look like chewed by dog… yeah thx ill stay with my lowa and aku pilgrim. 5 years, more than a thousand miles and still in one piece, not a single tear or hole.
salomon became shit company aprox 7 years ago. they customer service and warranty are a joke.
So you don’t really know a whole lot about boots, I can tell. You should not have a video on describing a pair of boots when you have no idea how to maintain and preserve them in the first place, my friend. I’m going to dislike this video for sure.
Why not carry spare laces?
Nearly killed me in the Scottish highlands a couple of times. Great for trail hikes but cross country on wet ground/grass you will slip.
These are the best boots I have ever used in the field. Period.
You should always put a leather protectant on your boots, no matter what. I can guarantee you you would not have had that split in your boots had you done so.
Edit: “Shoe-goo.” I used to skateboard a whole lot, use some on the side of that boot, and it will work fine.
Incredible boots! Just came off the AT with mine last week!
Wow! the boots need replacing after two years? and not Vibram soles – Not for me.
I thought boots were suppose to last longer than trail runners. These did not seem to go much longer than my Topo trail runners
I recently purchased this hiking boots. I am still breaking in to this shoes. Through out my previous my trekking, I was feeling pressure on top of my right toe. The toe is still numb from the trip. It was like the shoes wall pressed against the top of my toe. I had used a silicon insole as the pain increased, I removed that. The trail was a pretty easy terrain too. I had adjusted the lacing to reduce pressure on the bridge of the foot, and I used a surgeons knots to avoid heel lift. Would this go away as the shoes are broken in fully? Or should I try any different type of lacing by avoiding the forwards eyelets on the shoes? Any suggestions/recommendations would be helpful.
