The X Ultra Alpine Mid GTX is Salomon's mid-cut hiking boot for alpine terrain, here in a women's fit. It has a synthetic and textile upper, a GORE-TEX membrane with a textile lining, and a full-length cushioned EnergyCell midsole.
The trade-off of a stiffer, more protective mid-cut boot is that it is more boot than a light trail runner. That is what lets it handle loose rock, scrambles and wet, muddy trails with stable support.
It is for single-day routes and hiking in alpine terrain, from mixed, rocky ground to wet, muddy approaches. Salomon rates its foot protection as high.
Salomon pairs its stickiest rubber compound with lug geometry made for rock friction and traction in the mountains. It uses regular laces. Come in and try a pair on, and we will help you find the right size.
We love the X Ultra Alpine Mid for big days in the Green Mountains, steady on slick rock and dry from the first stream crossing to the summit.
