"Haven't yet broken these in, but I love them right out of the box."
"Both of us usually size up a 1/2 size when we buy trail shoes(New Balance for example) but we actually have to size down a 1/2 size with Salomon."
"Salomon has done such a good job with these that they are all I wear.....for running trails, road, in the gym at work."
"Good orthotics for heel and cushion support, the tread is nice and grippy and good for standing too like all day cooking in the kitchen, and they are so lightweight, it is like not having any shoes on at all."
"What a stunning colour... very confortable, very lightweight, took a few tries to work out the laces but theyre more secure than normal shoelaces."
"I have narrow feet so, since these shoes did not come in narrow, I ordered a half size down from my usual 9.5N."
"I'm the most loyal Salomon Speedcross 3 runner, but this stuff new shoe is a waste of money and causes injuries! Over the past several years, I've owned countless pairs of Salomon Speedcross 3 shoes for long-distance running on both the streets and the trails. It's the only shoe I run in, no matter the terrain or 90-degree running weather range here in Michigan. However, if you're a loyal Salomon Speedcross 3 wearer like myself or looking to try out some Speedcross shoes for the first time after a recommendation, BEWARE OF THIS SPEEDCROSS 4 VERSION! For the past few months, I've attempted to make these shoes work by running in them once per week to "wear them in," but I'm officially done! When I wear my old Speedcross 3s out running, I don't feel this pain in my heels or Achilles at all, but the one day per week I've been wearing the Speedcross 4s I've consistently experienced the new pain. My fiancée (who received a pair of the Speedcross 4 shoes as a Christmas gift before I figured out that these shoes were hopeless) is also quitting these shoes for good after just 6 weeks."

"A TRUE THING OF BEAUTY!!!"
"I use to buy new balance however the quality of the shoe went down hill and did not last very long."
"I have had a lot of trouble finding shoes I can walk in without foot and hip pain."
"My Jolt I bought fits perfect but these feel bigger for some reason."
"He works for FedEx and he says that when he's working he feels like he's "gliding" to every stop that's how good of a grip they have on his feet."
"I'm getting so used to superior service from Amazon and its partnerships that I actually expect five-star service--from quality of product to expediency of delivery."
"Good for low-priced running shoes."

I mean, look at that action figure lacing system, and my tires have less aggressive tread than this shoe, the little colored words on the sides made me think of sponsor labels on a top fuel dragster. The lace system seems odd at first but after a few times I figured it out so I can do it without taking my eyes off the TV. It's tricky at first but if that thug tries to take them off of you he will be stymied by the lace system long enough for you to run away up a nearby mountain... another plus. Nothing too terrible but dark blue on a 90 degree day in the sun is a bit warm. I suppose if I wore them for what they were made for I could cool them by running across a glacier or alpine stream. I'm sure I will appreciate that heat trapping during the other 320 or so odd days of usual cool and wet Ohio weather. I got some very minor dampness towards the end but my last pair of shoes would have sloshing water bags after ten steps so these were great. Plus the snug collar kept the grass clippings from getting into my shoes and turning my socks into rattan mats by the end of the day. While the treads are excellent for quick cuts in turf or dirt they can be a bit slick on smooth wet surfaces. In the reviews people talk about the longevity of this shoe in terms of miles or, in some cases, races. They seem like someone actually designed them to work and last rather than just adding pretty swooshes or springs of shocks on a mediocre pair of nylon/leather sacks and called them shoes. Granted, I was in a tram on the way up and on a wooden switchback walkway on the way down but I felt like I could outrun the other people if I had to. Plus they have the added benefit of making me look like I am a crazy trail runner...a very careful and clean one, but maybe they will think I am on the way to my first race. I didn't run any races, I didn't climb any gravel quarry trails but I hit a lot of asphalt and concrete. I was just at a resort in San Antonio Texas last week and the valets at the entrance checked them out as I walked in. I got a lot of looks on Riverwalk downtown too...but that might have been because I was wearing shorts and showing my blindingly white Ohio winter skin."
"The no-tie lacing system is very effective and does not slip loose; especially with The drawcinch tucked into the toungue pocket. As others stated, for the lugs to bite the terrain, they are softer than standard show soles."
"I also love the lace garage feature in the tongue of the shoe, its pretty genius and all shoes should have them."
"Looking for a 4th pair (and I try to get different colors each time) I could only find Speedcross 4's. Forgot to do this the other day and now have a silver dollar size chunk of skin gone off my right heel and a couple of blisters on toes."
"I have been wearing the new pair for about 2 months now and since then multiple knobs of the tread have turn off and seem to tear off if I step on a curb wrong. Yesterday I was walking through bed bath and beyond and the rubber tread pad sepperated from the shoe again just like the first pair."

"The one thing about ordering Adidas online is that you should probably try on the shoe in the store to see what size you really are. For some reason that translates to 7 1/2 in Men's Adidas and possibly 8 or 8 1/2 in Women's?"
"My daughter purchased these because she works retail and is on her feet all day."
"My preferred style of shoe for the last 10 years."
"I normally wear a 12 in all my shoes/boots but a 12 was really tight and had to return for larger size."
"He said they fit a bit snug but not worth changing a size."
"The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the tongue likes to slide to the side."
"I normally wear a straight up 14 in whatever shoe I buy but when I put these on they were buldging out at the sides a bit and it is not offered in any wide sizes."
