Why are Salomon shoes so popular for shooters?

I just got a pair of their new Sense Ride shoes and I think they are well worth the cost. I wear them for everyday use but they are still plenty grippy for trails or whatever.

 

To me the insole is the best part. It feels like the harder I use them the better they support. Also love the way they lace up.

There is a Speedcross 4 now?  Do tell.

 

I have a pair and they are great.  I have also had the Speedcross 3.  Cant tell much difference between them other than color design.  They don't come untied.  They are the only shoes I wear for range/competition.

Tried the solomons a couple of times, but they were not for me.then tried the asics trail shoes and a new Saucony trail models and really liked them both. So there some really good alternatives to the solomons.ymmv.

Speedcross for competition shooting and the XA pro 3d GTX for everything else.  They are comfortable, light, perform well and fit my feet well and are very comfortable.

I subscribed to Saloman's web site and its not uncommon to get 30% discount offers making them very affordable.

30% got my attention! Great info!

Wife came across an online deal on Speed cross Pro for $75 and a pair of Solomon Ultra X low hikers. Took awhile to break in the Pro as they were narrow but now they are just unbelievable comfortable.

 

Both shoes have great grip, the Ultra X I wear about as much as the Speed cross Pro.

My fiance doesn't like how Salomons look, so I ended up with Adidas Terrex Agravics. I find them very light and comfortable, almost like cross training shoes mixed with trail shoes.

You should have just told her she didn't have to wear them.  Your setting a bad precedent.   :D

She let me put a down payment on an Atlas Open Gun so I will gladly wear the shoes she chooses :lol:
