Men's Salomon XR Crossmax Neutral

Ran 6.2 miles the first time out of the box going up and down mountains. No need to break in. These shoes are great. The tread on these shoes are awesome. No blisters. Joints didn't hurt even in the days to come. Can't go wrong with these shoes.

I've had quite a time finding a shoe that fits my feet well and doesn't leave me with weird shin/calve problems. Cue the Salomon Men's XR Crossma Neutral Training to the rescue! It is one of the lightest shoes I've purchased. I also really love the pull string/no tie shoe laces. The traction/tread is more than enough for normal training and I would say even above normal treks. Keep in mind this model comes in many different color combinations, so look for the combo that you like the best!

I ordered them and as soon as I got them was anxious to go trail-running. Very solid feel as you run through rocks, branches and mud. After 10-15 more occasions I have found them to be an excellent trail-running shoe, even if the Salomon shoe-lace system is a little bit tricky and couldn't do it right the first few runs, sometimes I ended up with them to tight and had to stop in the midst of a run to ease them of, at other times I had it the other way around and so on. Man, they should print a instruction manual on that subject... Now it seems to be under control and I can recommend this shoe.

I bought these one week before my first trail event. The Hyner Trail Challenge is a 16.5 mile event with over 1500 feet of elevation to climb. This year there was an added bonus of what can only be explained as a monsoon with freezing rain, sleet and high winds. The new shoes were definitely put to the test. These shoes gripped all of the mud laden surfaces both uphill and downhill giving me a immense feeling of stability and traction through the muddy and rocky trail. They also helped to stabilize my feet by keeping my ankles from rolling. I have tried other shoes, but these had no break in period, felt the best and have held up to additional trail runs since the Hyner Trail Challenge. I would highly recommend these to anyone considering a purchase.

I bought these to do skydiving and jogging as well, though I haven't had the opportunity to do much of either... But the shoes ROCK!!!!!

beautiful shoes, very lightweight, fantastic design and color, with very good support, sole very smooth, with good grip salomon rules in this segment of the market.

Good cushioning and support. Easy quick lace system. The kiwi green is just funky enough to add some fun to the shoes.

Shoes are great! bang for the buck, i love the color and the shoelace system. i cant wait to test it.

I've really just started running, but we get nasty weather in Calgary and I wanted something I could run through the winter with. I'd been using Saucony Men's Grid Trigon 3 Ride I bought a few years ago, and the shoes felt great but they're mesh, and the last thing you want to do is run with literally frozen feet. The Crossmax are incredible. Excellent grip on snow and ice, to the point where I often just take my crampons off and run without. I've run in -18C and stayed warm, comfortable and nimble. They genuinely are door-to-trail, and I run in mixed terrain, from ravines to sidewalks without a problem. My only problem is with the arch - I've had some twinges in the arch, and I have high arches, although I suspect that will lessen as I beat the shoes up more. Other than that, excellent shoes.
