Salomon Mega Trek 6 Light GTX Backpacking Boot - Men's

 Brand : Salomon
Item : SAL0530
The Salomon Mega Trek 6 Light GTX hiking boot is a performance driven rugged terrain hiker. The Mega Trek 6 is up for anything from technical day hikes to weekend backpacking trips. It's also the lightest boot in Salomon's Mega Trek line. Salomon's Advanced Chassis system stabilizes your feet over uneven terrain, without losing energy from your stride. The bootie-construction liner adds comfort. The Gore-Tex membrane keeps your feet dry from outside moisture (like the “small” river you just tromped through), while a thick PU midsole and beefy rubber toe cap keep your tootsies protected from rocks and abrasion. The high cuff protects and supports your ankles as you trot your way to the peak.

Salomon Mega Trek 6 Light GTX Backpacking Boot - Men's



Great boot ....
This is a great boot for day hiking and weekend backpacking. It is little stiff but after wearing it for a day around the house it loosens up and was ready. It has this advance chassis technology with it seem it really works, and beside all it looks nice too.


Salomon Mega Trek 6 Light GTX Day Hiking Boot - Men's
This must be my fifth or sixth order from this site, and they have come through again with timely delivery of the promised product. These boots are incredible—I had purchased the fantastic Salomon SM Lite boots a short time for mountaineering and liked them a lot, so when I needed the next step down for solid backpacking boots I could use off-trail, I decided to try Salomon again and these GTX boots are awesome! The fit is good, and they truly require minimal break-in. The randing is sufficient for toe protection, and the contragrip soles grip like crazy. And if you catch them on sale—what a deal!


Worth every penny!!
Well, I broke them in with a few two-hours hikes on some trails in northeast Ohio. Then I took them out to Colorado for a real test. I took a six-hour hike to the top of Grays Peak(14270ft). My feet felt like a million dollars. These boots were light and comfortable, (just don't forget some good socks). A great value.


Sweet boots
What has been said about "right out of the box" is absolutely true. I have owned them for about one month and they have been comfortable since day one. This past weekend I did 26+ miles in these boots with a 40lb backpack. My feet felt great during and after the trip. I have wide feet and these boots worked well. I have high arches, so I changed out the insoles for ones with more support, but I do that with all my shoes. I highly recommend these boots.


Uncomfortable boot
I spent 2 weeks breaking in my boots and the left boot pinched my foot right behind my toes. Hiked at the least a mile and a half every other day trying to break the boots in but they still bothered my feet.
