Salomon Trail Runners

[23soles]

I’ve heard of the brand previously but never owned any or seen them worn by anyone. But I recently saw these and really want a pair. Anyone own this model or others from Salomon? Any feedback on sizing/comfort? Any on-foot photos?

 

[crazy ebw]

No personal experience, but I do know more than a handful of people who really stand by this brand and their overall quality and comfort. If it’s your style, give them a shot.

The first pair looks like the Air Assassins that Flanders bought on the Simpsons. Nice.

I picked up the bottom colorway amonth or 2 back. Accidentally ordered .5 down (site only listed sizes in UK and I ****ed up) They fit, but pretty snug. Go TTS. I ended up copping another pair in my normal size from Need Supply when they had a 30% off code but still waiting on em. So I may have a worn once basically tried on for an hour size 9 for sale.
Wotherspoon has been seen in the top colorway recently.

 

[23soles]

Thanks for the sizing info. I’m having a hard time finding a US12.

I just found a couple photos of Wotherspoon in them. I like the top color a lot.

 

[thejacobsharp]

Yeah I guess my reason for mentioning that was that they're probably going to be selling out now, and since these are a ltd. pair I'd suggest scooping them soon. You can get a UK 11.5 which is a 12 on farfetch right now. The only USA-based seller I've sen is Need Supply and they're like $40 over EU retail there (and out of your size anyway)

Farfetch seems kinda weird but I've heard good things and that it's fully legit.

I found out about this particular model and the top colorway in particular from the organiclab.zip instagram account and now I'm obsessed.

 

[thejacobsharp]

I think these XT Quest ADV's are going to be my next pair unless I can find a a steal on the "Wotherspoons" lol

Kith just started stocking some of their stuff, and Rihanna was wearing some in her birthday pic a few months back. Definitely an upcoming brand for the high fashion set right now, and I've always heard good things performance wise.

 

[thejacobsharp]

Damn I had no idea they were blowing up like that.

Yeah I'm still kicking myself for not picking up the ones Rih's wearing when they were at Kith. They were already gone before she wore them and now they're nowhere on the whole internet lol

 

[23soles]

Thanks, I’m going to grab a US11.5 from farfetch. I know you said go true but I can’t find a 12 anywhere. I’m going to try my luck with these.

Also, farfetch is super legit. I’ve shopped with them a ton before. Thanks again.

Nah you're good cause it's listed in UK. 11.5 UK is a US 12 in these.

 

[23soles]

Really?? I thought US=UK+1

 

[thejacobsharp]

Really?? I thought US=UK+1

Yep that's what I thought and why I ended up with the wrong size. Ordered a UK 8.5 thinking it would be a 9.5 and it was a 9.
Box for reference.

Thanks, man! Just purchased.
Excited to get these in hand.

Yea they've been creeping into high fashion for a little over a year and boutiques are beginning to stock them. Recently spotted on Rihanna, Jeff Staple, and Wotherspoon so hypebeasts flocking

Lmfao I guess Kith has almost a full size run but you got the better price. Still cheaper from the EU sellers.

[23soles]

Ha, well look at that. All good.
I’d be pissed if they were cheaper.

 

[23soles]

Pair came in today. Good looking out on the sizing information thejacobsharp . Perfect fit.

 

[fentyenthusiast]

****in' hell

How’s sizing on the xt6? I’ve heard people go tts and .5 up.
