Welcoming any advice on which colour to go with! I’m curious about how the beige goretex would hold up overtime compared to the dark brown that would hide stains.
Thanks in advance!
So, after more than three years (shoes bought 2023 January), I have decided to retire my white XT-6 expanses. They were my go to shoes, took them everywhere and survived a lot. Today I also bought a pair of XT-6, when I tried them, feeling wise they were 1:1 to the old ones so I was happy to take them as a replacement. However after coming home and comparing the shoes against each other, I find the old ones much more well constructed and rugged. Especially the old ones feel more durable and less plasticky. Can anyone tell me, what might be the difference between the shoes? I really loved the old ones because they survived more than 3 years and they were fantastic in any circumstance and I expect 3 years from the new ones, too. Any help is appreciated!
I saw these xt-6 for a reasonable price but I'm not familiar with Salomon's so can't tell if they're real or not
I got them in this week. I'm kinda iffy on this KITH collab. I like the silhouette but I'm not a fan of the yellow in person 😞. Gives me Lego vibes 😭.
Anyone have any idea if they are planning to bring back this colorway? My shoes are starting to wear through, so I’ll need to order a new pair soon. I’ve been holding out though in case this colorway drops
Are them practical to wear as a daily ? What do you think ?
Quite bizarre is this a qc issue? Left is longer than the right
Liking the Salomon Alpine Collection because I love the color. Recently saw a post here about the XA Pro of the collection and comments mentioned it's a bit tight, which somehow deinfluenced me because I do not like a snug fit on my toes.
What are your thoughts on the X-Alp? And if you have or had one, how is the sizing and feel on foot? Thank you so much!!!
I'm personally in the functionality camp. I have the XT-6's. I use them for trail running, and that's it, but I'm seeing more people wearing them around work or doing errands, etc. I've never found them necessarily stylish, but maybe that's just me.
Planning to use it as my daily shoes but from where I am, it always rains. I don't really run but want something comfortable for walks
Does anyone know if Salomon will be doing this in the near future?
I can’t wear the XT-6 because it’s too narrow right above the toes. I hear this midsole is wider in that area and no lugs is a big plus for everyday wear.
Thanks!
I am planning on buying a pair of X-alps (leather), I haven't had any before so I checked the size guide and measured my foot length.
I usually wear a UK women's size 7, 7.5 or 8 or an EU 41-42 depending on the brand, however my foot length + sock is 26.7cm, which corresponds to unisex 8.5 or 9. in the Salomon sizing chart.
I read the reviews of the latest X-alps and some people were saying that it runs very large while some were saying the exact opposite. I'm now confused and would be grateful for any suggestions on what size to buy.
