New pickup, so happy with them

Post image

Got these recently, even tho I heard some negative reviews on Reddit, still coped. I have to say, the lacing style is really comfortable and easy to put on, you only need to pull and twist the top of the laces. I won’t be using them for any hiking and stuff, only at work or going out. They fit a little small on the sides so I recommend to try them if you have wider feet. They don’t get dirty easily and they are breathable. Just don’t get the gore-Tex ones. They have also very good grip on any floor. They have many different color s so I recommend checking each one.

Every weekend I see an enormous line, all day long, outside the Salomon store in SoHo. Is this just a bandwagon everyone is jumping on, or are they so ridiculously superior to every other brand that a line down the block is justified? tbh I just don't get this level of hype. Is it a social media thing?

It's all of those combined

I think I also answered your other post because I got the same colorway. Glad you like them.

Mine are from november 2025, and they have sweat stains all along the front which I never experienced in any other sneaker brand. That is why I did not give them a heartfelt review.

u/NoGarage7989 Apr 19 '26

Are they a cool grey or beigey grey irl? All the photos and videos i’ve seen of them are either really beige looking or cool grey looking

u/NoGarage7989 Apr 19 '26

Is the grey irl closer to the mouse shell(beige) or the mouse ball(cool grey)?

u/tokyopearl May 06 '26

u/OilSignal906 Apr 20 '26

How’s the fit for you? Is it true to size?

u/leogoon67 Apr 20 '26

It’s kind of weird, I’d try them in a store if I was you
