These were my 2017 Salomon Quest 4D GTX. They were without a doubt the best hiking shoes I have ever had. It is my understanding that ever since Anta Sports bought a controlling share of Salomon's parent company (Amer Sports) in 2019 the quality and durability of Salomon shoes has become markedly worse. This is too bad because these shoes made me a huge fan of Salomon. I have hiked all over the Eastern Sierras, Trinity Alps, Los Angeles Forest in these. I also have hiked all over Norway in these. They also joined me on a three day hike in Georgia 🇬🇪. I just recently completed a 4 day trek in the Slovenian Alps and it finally became clear it was time to retire them. This is after well over a thousand miles and lots of rough terrain. I left them in my hotel I stayed in after my trek. I am now at the airport reminiscing on all the great memories I made with them and decided to do this post in their honor.
