Pulsar Trail Running Shoe (Men)

Bought these for a trip to Mexico where we went up a steep rocky mountain the real test was really coming down.... I was surprised on how well they grabbed especially on wet rock .... Don't know how durable they are .... but that one trip going up that mountain payed for themselves, kept me from getting hurt.... comfortable out of the box, no breaking in for me.... These made me a salamon fan...just bought some more.... Thank you Salomon....

"I had these shoes for no more than 1 1/2 months, using them for less than 3 miles twice a week. I had to walk or jog to the trail 0.6 miles on the pavement and run a short single 2-mile trail. What a surprise when I see the tread of the sole of the shoe gone. The design and cushioning are great, but the sole material is cheap or of bad quality. It's crazy that short runs wore off the sole of this shoe. Very disappointing."

Bought the shoes thinking they would make a great pair for moderate trails. Upper felt comfortable at first but by the 200km the lugs at the front right were almost completely gone and the shoes were slipping all over the trails. The left shoe seems to be wonky now (the sole) and rolls inwards on runs. The upper on the same shoe is also showing signs of abnormal wear. I persevered to 270km with the shoes including some hiking as I didn't feel comfortable running in them anymore but they are not even good for hiking now as there is zero grip and the inwards rolling of the shoe is very annoying. I've owned many pairs of Salomon shoes over the years and these are by far the worst! I find it unacceptable that a supposedly premium brand produced such a poor quality shoe. To make matters worse it seems that Salomon isn't even accepting that this quality isn't acceptable. I will be spending my money elsewhere.
