Experience the ultimate trail running with the X-Ultra 4 Gtx Mid shoe. It is equipped with a new frame for even better protection of sensitive joints without compromising freedom of movement. It features Gore-Tex technology for optimal waterproofing and SensiFit technology that cradles the foot from the midsole to the lacing system, providing a secure, comfortable, and almost customized fit across the entire foot. Additionally, it has a protective piece made of rubber, leather, and synthetic material over the toe area.

I don't have an opinion yet on rugged trails.
Let's see the basics. In everyday use, they are classic and beautiful, very lightweight with a solid, almost seamless tread that unfortunately has lower grip on wet surfaces compared to boots that cost 35 euros. Overall, the quality for the price of 145 euros is unacceptable compared to the equivalent model from 2021 that I had before. And I'll conclude with two issues that I noticed. The lacing cuts into your foot strongly if you make the mistake of tightening them well. And secondly (I believe it's the materials of the toe and mainly the design), they cause sweating in the toes. Conclusion: If I found them for under 90 euros, I would buy them again. Otherwise, they're not worth it.
P.S.: They really don't smell like SALOMON
I just got them so time will tell if they are durable. I have to say they are a bit narrow (and I don't have wide feet). Maybe they loosen up in time. I usually get 43 but purchased number 44 as I read a lot of reviews saying that you should get a bigger number and I can confirm that. Overall I think you should go and try on your feet if possible to see if they are comfortable for you and also for the proper size. That said I'm happy with the purchase.
In the photos, the X Ultra 4 Mid GTX is shown side by side with the X Ultra 3 Mid GTX. The previous model in the photo has undergone 560 km of abuse in the mountains.
I have the feeling that the plastic parts on the heel and toe were more reinforced in the old model, especially on the lower back, where the shoe encounters rocks as shown in the photo of the old model...
The sole is 95% the same.
The design is also the same with a slight difference in the tongue, which covers the Achilles tendon higher.
Also, the new model is more flexible in the front.
Update 06/2024. After about 100 km of "wood" with the new model, I hadn't decided if they suited me as much as the previous ones until I did a very difficult ascent-descent where I realized that the new model does exactly what we buy it for. It protects you fully when jumping from rock to rock for hours, and the soles of the feet look as if you haven't covered any km on rough terrain.
From the moment companies impose the trend of mobile phones, that is, constantly releasing the same model in a new version, at some point they would lose their character.
No relation to the older ones. Small stylistic differences every year brought poor quality materials to this model. The company could have stability in design and materials with minimal technological improvements.
Luckily, I have in good condition the boots I bought 5 years ago.
