I picked these up prior to taking a cave tour. Wet paths, boulders, serious inclines & declines etc. The Salomons were incredibly comfy. Warm, dry & very padded without becoming an overly tight fit. Throughout the day despite the very pronounced moisture of the cave, my Salomons never became wet inside (thank you Goretex!) and gripped the surfaces like a champ.
I think I should also mention that I have fallen arches. Although the shoes had a bit of an arch, the arches were supportive rather than intrusive. Soft rather than rigid. They never became uncomfortable during a 4+ hr cave hike. I do suggest getting a half size above as someone else suggested. If only I could find a pair of Salomons to wear to the gym, it seems that most of their shoes are trail runners..
Best off road shoes I have ever had.
