Very comfortable for daily use, durability iffy
I previously wore the X Ultra 3 and loved them. Very comfortable and durable. However, the fit changed with the 4 and they now don't seem to offer an option without Goretex. I'm a sweaty guy and Goretex doesn't breathe like I need it to. I really like these as a replacement, but the soles seem to wear out faster than the X Ultra 3. Additionally I find my toes are more likely to touch the front of the shoe if I don't have the laces on tight. No big deal, but something to keep in mind if you're on hilly trails.

Used for 100k hiking trip
Bought these trainers for a 100k hike in the Canadian Rockies and they preformed perfectly, no blisters even with only getting 15k in them to break them in beforehand.

Fantastic for hiking long distances over days.
I bought these initially in the wrong size, and Salomon let me return them and order a different size. I have been hiking regularly for years, and I normally suffer very badly from blisters etc despite doing everything in my power to avoid them. With these I got none at all over a challenging 3 day hike. Would strongly recommend. I have narrow feet with a high arch and these are perfect.

Great fit with a catch
The lacing system makes these the best for fit. So that's 5 stars. However, durability is a one star, since I've had to purchase 8 pairs in the past 4-5 years. The fabric wears through, even on the gore tex version.

At least as good as the V8's
This is my 3rd pair of XA Pro 3D shoes. I saw some reviews stating they were not as comfortable or sizing changed. My experience is that I'm finding consistency in comfort and sizing. A USA size 12 is still fitting like the old 12 and comfort is not compromised. I will continue buying as long as the shoe quality and durability does not waiver.

Great Hiking Shoe For Everday Use
I recently purchased a pair of Salomon hiking shoes and couldn't be happier. They offer incredible comfort, excellent traction, and reliable support on all types of terrain. Whether I'm hiking rocky trails or walking through wet conditions, they perform flawlessly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for durable, high-performance footwear!

Doesn't change
One thing I love about the XA Pro 3D is that Salomon doesn't change it every year! Built on the same last for years. I've probably been hiking in this shoe for 25 years (not the same pair, obviously, I've owned at least 15 pairs at this point.) The perfect balance between stability and light weight, great for steep technical trails, peak bagging, etc. I use it for backpacking in the summer as well.

Comfortable and stylish
Love the pull tab to tighten instead of normal laces. It works really well. The shoe is very comfortable and is stylish enough to be worn to the office or on the trail.

Great shoes
This is probably my third pair of these that I've ordered, haven't had any reason to try another brand as no complaints over the past 5+ years I've had Salomon XA Pro 3d shoes
