Salomon Exit Sport Hiking Shoes (For Women)

This light hiking shoe is perfect for quick outdoor jaunts; ie; walking the dog, easy hike, etc. The size was surprisingly big. I own other Salomon shoes which already run 1/2 size larger, however this pair ran a whole size larger than my regular shoe size.(Normally a 6.5 but ordered 5.5) A bit of a heel lift going on but if I lace up snug and with a bit of a break in, it should become a true favorite.....good price! :)

I would consider my feet as average. The shoes were extremely narrow and would be comfortable for someone with narrow feet.

I have a fairly wide size 7 foot but I usually don't have problems finding shoes that fit. These were the exception. I ordered 2 successively smaller sizes and they still were too big in the heel - every time I took a step my heel would lift out. I had to send them back. They looked like nice shoes and were attractive, but the fit was very strange.

The ball of the foot area inside the shoe had some roughness at the point where the insole attached to the side. Took my foot awhile to get used to it, but since the shoe has such an adequate toe box, there was room for my foot to adjust with a sock on.

I got these a few weeks ago and have used them on several hikes (all 6 miles or less). When I first got them, they were a bit stiff, but I wore them a few times before I first went hiking to break them in. I'm not sure if that's necessary, I just did it to be safe. But they are very comfortable and have great traction. The only thing I didn't like was the stiffness at the beginning and also that they felt a little awkward at first. But I think that's just because I wasn't used to them. But overall, I think these are a GREAT product and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a good hiking shoe!
