I think I’m finally done with Salomon

You could probably send those zamberlans to @svivian. Sounds like he could get a good couple of years out of them!

While @CorbLand is my rokslide twin brother I wear a size 14

I would need 11 bucks for shipping so I can send you a red squeak nose to go with those clown feet.

I could cut the toes off, it would solve the hole in the one...could make them like high top sandals.

He could combine the 2 and have 1 shoe that fits!

Ain't no wonder you into that spear fishing, you ain't got feet, but flippers.

@svivian can go duck hunting with me anytime. No worries of the boat motor breaking down and not making it back to the ramp.

@svivian I need you for some late season cow hunts. Having built in snow shoes really would help with the deep snow.

I got like 5 years of hard use out of my first pair of Solomon’s. I really don’t expect to get more then two years out of a light hiker though, and anymore if I have a heavy pack I always wear Asolo 520s. The weight of your body and a heavy pack puts a ton of strain on a light boot with lots of seams, not really surprising they don’t last a long time.

We love you buddy.

I stopped using Solomons a few years back, not from them falling apart, but they were wearing my feet out. That narrow ass toe box was killing me after a day in the woods. I went to a pair of Scarpa light hikers and haven’t had any issues, but I am trying a pair of Altra trail shoes and so far they are working out pretty well. They have a giant toe box and my feet aren’t nearly as worn out after a long day as they were in a pair of Solomon’s.

I don’t think boots of that quality and design(quest 4, lowa renegade, etc…) are really made to last more than a year or two of hard use.

I buy a pair every two years of whatever is on sale

Get the Camino GTX; fits like the Renegade w/ pretty much same flexibility/weight, but it's resoleable. I too got annoyed at having to replace my Renegades every season.

I’ll be up where you hunt anyways

I generally get about a year out of my crispy Colorado's before they turn into racing slicks but well worth the extra grip and how comfortable they are.

edit to I'm about 4 sets in and still running them. great boot for what i need.

How many miles are you doing per year? Are training on concrete?
My Colorado’s are three years old with over 300 miles on them and they are still fantastic. And by the way, still pass a 30 minute submerge test
