I purchased these awesome, quality shoes when I was in Switzerland. I was having major feet issues and ended up not wearing them. Salomon is known for manufacturing Nordic ski equipment and is well versed in knowledge in this arena and now in footwear. If you are seeking a good quality hiking or walking shoe, then this is definitely one that will not disappoint. The traction is excellent and fit, and comfort is above average. They fit true to size in both length and width. These haven't been worn and come without the box. Great deal for an incredible walking / hiking shoe. Thank you for shopping with me 🛍. Everything is from a clean, non-smoking, no pet home. I ship same or next day except Holidays. Alyce 🌹
