Hoka One Speed Goat 4 My wife and I love these shoes. They have a knobby Vibram sole, great traction. We get a couple years out of them.

Re: Hiking Boots
I've got a pair of size 12 Salewah Mountain Trainers that are just too damn narrow for my feet. If you are interested please DM me.

Re: Hiking Boots
Has anyone tried this newest variation of the Salomon X-Ultra series? They are intriguing, but was hoping to hear real feedback before I shell out $220

They look really pointy. Ouch. I like that Salomons run narrow, since I have narrow feet. Just wish they allowed toes to splay instead of squishing them together.

@azbackpackr
The pair I ordered arrived last night. They seem to have the same boot cut/shape as the regular X Ultra 4, which has a lot more toe space than the 3 had. The only real difference seems to be the tread pattern. I’m hoping they are better on wet rock, because the standard 4 does not have good wet grip.
