Salewa Women's Ultra Train Mountain Training Shoe

Good for: Experienced hikers and trail runners who value a light, non-waterproof shoe with aggressive, sticky tread, and whose feet and legs are conditioned not to need a lot of support.Not good for: Street running (a waste of tread), easy trail running (likewise), people who need the support of a stiffer sole or more than moderate cushioning, and people whose feet don't fit Salewa's lasts (which tend to be narrow).Discussion: The shoe is light, comfortable, flexible, and grippy. The flaw that made me send this shoe back: speed laces. Speed laces tighten the whole shoe the same amount. They can't be adjusted by eyelet. This means the fit isn't adjustable, either. I needed these shoes to be tighter over my (narrow) instep, but having them tight enough over the instep meant the rest of the shoe was too tight. You COULD cut the speed laces and use regular laces, but that would make the shoe unreturnable and wasn't a step I felt comfortable taking with shoes I couldn't properly test before modifying. But if you're in the right demographic and don't mind speed laces, this shoe has a lot going for it.Pros: Aggressive, sticky lugs, lightweight, highly flexible sole, reasonably tough upper.Cons: Toe bumper could be more substantial. I'd like to see a pull loop on the heel. And the previously mentioned speed laces.

I love these shoes. It took a couple days to get used to the arch and the stiffness, but once I did, I never wanted to take these shoes off (except, of course, feet need to breathe after 7 hours in the Grand Canyon). I feel solid trail running in these in addition to hiking; no slipping in the sandy or wet terrain. They fit perfectly for me, which means they might not for everyone else (?). I have a wider toe box, high arches, thin heels, so I can vary from 7.5 (in heels) to 8.5 (I like half sizing up in running shoes). I bought these in an 8. They do probably run a bit narrow, but I like the snugness--the pair of Salomons I had felt clunky and too wide.

These shoes have the best traction, even better than my hiking boots. I paid $86 and when I put my foot in there I knew I hhad found a gem.They have traction even on a suface with sand. I would love to buy another pair but now they cost $153. (Almost double!) and I am not paying that. I will keep looking. Great shoe, the Michelin bottom is fantastic!

I run a lot in the mountains usually in inclement weather and these have been Flawless in terms of performance. The only downside are the pull strings which the little flaps that hold them break very easily. I hope the manufacturer will consider reinforcements.

Great shoe and comfortable. Width is small in sizes.

Really comfortable walking shoes from day one!

Habe den Schuh jetzt ca. 1 Monat im Dauereinsatz. Versand war wie immer schnell. Fazit: Sohle hat tatsächlich besseren Grip als andere, auch bei feuchtem Boden. Jedoch ist negativ aufgefallen das die Schuhe leider nicht Wasserdicht sind. Also kann man da schon mal den einen oder anderen nassen Fuß bekommen. Eine Naht drückt auf den Zehenknochen der grossen Zehe! Also leider nicht 100% passgenau, aber nur der auf der rechten Seite, kann aber sehr unangnehm werden, wenn man den Schuh den ganzen Tag trägt. Hatte ich bei anderen Schuhen dort noch nie.Kaufen würde ich den Schuh nur wegen der Sohle nicht nochmal.Fazit nach 1/2 Jahr Dauereinsatz:Kaufe ich nie wieder. Sohle ist wie bei billigeren Schuhen genau so abgetragen und am meisten Ärgert mich das oben auf dem Schuh wo der Stoff an der Seite von der Lerdernaht anfängt, rechts der Schuh ein Loch hat und links der Schuh, der Stoff auch ziehmlich dünn geworden ist. Das ist mir selbst bei 20 € Schuhen noch nie Passiert.Also Kaufen tue ich diese nie wieder. Deshalb nur noch 2 Sterne.

Scarpe usate 3 volte per passeggiate su sentieri di campagna e montagna, suola che si stacca come potete vedere dalle foto. Le scarpe in sé sono molto comode ma non esiste che la suola si scolli dopo appena 3 utilizzi!!! Non consiglio assolutamente il prodotto, soldi mal spesi. Mi fa specie che Michelin collabori alla realizzazione di un prodotto così scadente. Comprate altro.

Super bequemer Schuhe zum Wandern. Robuste Sohle, auch auf steinigen Wegen. Perfekter Halt auch bei schmalen Füßen. Das Schnürsystem finde ich praktisch, weil es sich sehr fest binden lässt. Ist aber Geschmackssache, weil man den restlichen Teil der Kordel irgendwie unterbringen und in den Schuh „rein fummeln“ muss. (Das kostet Zeit, hält dann aber gut.)Allerdings hätte ich erwartet, dass es sich beim Material teilweise um Leder handelt und nicht um Plastik (bei diesem Preis). Das halt zur Folge, dass der Schuh nicht für wärmere Temperaturen geeignet ist. (Man schwitzt leicht). Daher 1 Stern Abzug.Optisch ist der Schuh top und entspricht von den Farben her der Abbildung.Für die passende Größe habe ich den Fuß gemessen. Auf der Salewa Homepage gibt es eine Größentabelle (inkl. Messanleitung), damit bin ich gut hingekommen!

E' la seconda volta che le compro, le precedenti le ho consumate in trekking in Islanda, Costa Rica, Vietnam e cammino di Santiago!Leggere e traspiranti, ma se piove non si bagnano (se entri in acqua sì, perché non sono in goretex), il chè le rende perfette per i paesi tropicali e i mesi caldi.Non scivoli nemmeno se ci provi, grazie alla suola Michelin, e sono davvero molto comode. Vesciche solo in condizioni estreme.
