XT Pu.Re Advanced Sneaker (Men)

Bought these for working during my 12hour shifts at the hospital in the ICU. One of the most comfortable shoes I’ve warn and made my shifts a lot more bearable. Get compliments every time I wear them. Stain easy but I also am dealing with liquids that would stain most things. Just bought a new pair and will be more mindful to keep them clean- when I can lol. Salomon became a quick first choice for me after trying many of the other popular healthcare brands. Tried these after my first XT-6 pair and those were great too!

I did a lot of research for casual walking shoes and this was what I settled with. Very futuristic and amazing design language... It reminds me of a very sporty Lamborghini or Italian car of sorts. So design wise and features is a 5/5. Fit however... It does not fit the same as other Salomons I have tried...feels a bit too snug. So I would be your actual size. I ended settling with 0.5 size smaller than my actual size because I was under the impression it would be a looser fit due to the mesh and like other runners I ve tried in the past (Nike and Adidas)... Might slightly regret not buying my actual size. Despite 2 returns, I am not going to waste Customer Service time and just stick to this for now. Fit is 3/5 Quality wise... For the price, maybe it's just mine but started noticing a lot of glue bleeding over the edges. The foam as shown in pic was scratch out of box. Also the packaging it came in was heavily crushed. (Comparing to my past two returns, those shoes didn't have such issues). Few loose threads that I have cut off. Quality 2/5 I like it but buy at your own caution. I am still going to wear it since I paid a pretty penny for these.
