My son has these Salomon boots and he really likes them, finds them comfortable straight out of the box, but we struggle to get 2 years out of a pair - a lot of our hunting is on the west coast where they are wet pretty much all the time and this destroys boots.
I have some Meindl Himilaya’s, but they are very heavy when wet. Have just bought some Crispi Summit GTX. Only been for a couple of 8km walks around the road with my dog (only got them last Saturday), but they are very comfortable. Be interesting to see how they are on hills, but pretty happy so far. Rand is stitched on at the edges so hopefully will last better than the Meindl’s.
