Elixir Activ Gore-Tex Hiking Trainers

Just tested these this morning on my walk and they are extremely comfortable. I like the fact this brand comes in half sizes. Important when you need to wear a thicker walking sock

After months and months of searching for all-day comfortable shoes, I finally found what I was looking for in the Elixir Activ!. I had worn Salomon X crests for years, maybe decades, but found the new pioneer version to be clunky and slow, and I was struggling with the quick lace systems, gender inclusive (too much volume for me) and two-fiber inner soles on the lastest hiking models! BUT FINALLY, after trying many brands, I realized Salomon made a women's lace up-and the are JUST PERFECT. Great for hikes, great on the pavement, can walk all day in a big city and hike on trails! I bought multiple pairs I loved them so much. Right amount of foam cushion in soles--stiff enough for stability, but soft on aging joints. Normal laces I can custom fit and tie. Wide wall stability stops pronation/supination. I just can't say enough good things about these shoes! Thank you Salomon! I hated the thought of having to give up on you and now i don't have to!

Had for a few weeks they are comfy but they make a weird noise around the toe box when walking. Wish they would make a whole shoe in this style that is has the top material in dark and the sole in dark colors because it is a trail shoe and it will get dirty light colors don’t work. Not women like girly colors and would appreciate non girly colors too that match all outfits like black and grey please make one in darker colors. Pressure points on sides of lower heal if worn for long hours walking hoping it will go away as they break in.

Very comfortable after long walks and good traction on slippery stones. After reading reviews, I ordered my regular shoe size 7.5. Usually, in a running shoe I size up but decided not to and they fit perfect. There is plenty of room in the toe box and they hold my feet in place. Nice and sturdy.

Bought it for my mom. She likes the design, the look, and the feel.

Very comfortable after a VERY LONG shift. Very light weight. My feet did not hurt at all. The problem is it is not slip resistant. But I brought another pair still. Very good looking shoes

Very disappointed with these gore-tex shoes (mine are orange ones). Got in rain and my socks were wet and feet cold:( Though they are light and comfy, but the fact they are not waterproof ruins everything:(

From the minute I put them on they were extremely comfortable. I’ve done at least 50 K in the first week and not a sign of anywhere whatsoever. I have done all different types of trails are soft buggy and feet were still dry. Highly recommend.

Have had the shoes for just about a month and have used them mostly for walks with the dogs in the PNW where we are entering the rainy season. Have had zero wet or cold toes. Also using for soccer practice on the wet turf and grass. Excellent. Now that we are in the rainy season I am wearing them almost every day.

as usual, sizing is erroneously off and off-putting--why the inconsistency with this company? Hassle to return for improper consistency.

Love the shoes. Haven’t used them yet since they were purchased for a trip coming up soon

Unfortunately although these are waterproof, the colours are very light and so walking through wet and muddy fields/ paths will make them look awful quickly. I also felt the price was high for shoes, compared to the higher cut boots format.

Bought these as a replacement for my much loved Salomon Veyas now worn out. Bit sturdier, great speedy shoe.

Very comfortable for hiking and tail walking. Size is perfect.
