Narrow shoe.
"Narrow shoe."
Great cushioning
"Salomon are pretty much the only brand of walking shoe I use anymore but walking greater mileage on hard footpaths and tracks I was feeling achilles and heal soreness. The Elixers answered that. The rocker sole is a bit strange at first but the cushioning has allowed me to sustain and increase mileage"
Great wet weather shoe
"I find them a little sweaty for non wet-weather days but awesome for the rain. They’re comfortable and light and I felt 5h plus is no issue. Not the best looking footwear but certainly more practical. Have used in the gym, playing soccer with the kids and general movement, very comfortable."
Comfy, nice and grippy. Great
"Comfy, nice and grippy. Great all rounder!"
Great Value shoe.
"Value for money. Seem ok only walked 10ks in them so far."
Yep, great shoes.
"You can’t go wrong with Salomon’s. I’ve been buying their shoes for years. Another great pair, happy as Larry."
Comfortable ,good price, recommend them.
"Comfortable ,good price, recommend them."
Narrow fit
"Shoe size inaccuarate based on my experience. I usually fit UK size 8 in normal Gold Top socks so ordered size 8. 5 to allow room for thicker socks. Size 8. 5 too small even for lightweight socks and bought a size 9 UK which fit. Discrepancy possibly due to narrow fit of shoe. Cannot comment on durability as only just purchased."
Well made, feet don't get
"Well made, feet don't get hot when wearing. Recommend these"

Care instructions
- Cleaning: Use a soft cloth or brush to wipe away dirt and debris. After extended, rugged use, wash with mild soap and warm water. Be sure to rinse off all soap residue to avoid attracting more dirt
- Drying: Open footwear fully, remove the insole and laces and dry at room temperature. Do not expose footwear to direct heat sources (e.g a fireplace, heater or direct sunlight) as doing so can compromise adhesives and materials used in your footwear's construction
- Protect and condition: Use a protective spray designed for your shoe material to repel stains and liquids. Make sure to find a treatment that matches with the materials and construction of your footwear
- Storing: Find a cool, dry place to store your shoes, away from direct sunlight. Avoid stacking your footwear to prevent any damage
