Salomon Quest 4D 3 GTX Boot

About

The Salomon Quest 4D 3 GTX Boot is a premium hiking boot designed for backpacking and long-distance treks. It features a Gore-Tex Performance Comfort waterproof membrane, ensuring dry feet in wet conditions. The boot's upper is made from Nubuck leather and nylon mesh, providing breathability and durability. The Contagrip sole offers excellent traction on various terrains, making it suitable for challenging hikes. The boot is moderately heavy, weighing 22.5 oz per shoe, which can be noticeable for those accustomed to lighter footwear. The Quest 4D 3 GTX offers a narrow fit, typical of Salomon boots, and includes a thoughtful lacing system with deep eyelets for secure ankle support. The boot features a dual-density EVA midsole for comfort and support, along with OrthoLite footbeds to absorb shock. Padded ankle collars and gusseted tongues enhance comfort and keep debris out. While the boots are not lightweight, they provide superior ankle support and stability, making them ideal for serious backpackers. The combination of waterproofing, traction, and support makes these boots a reliable choice for demanding outdoor adventures.
