Buy Salomon Women's XR Mission Running Shoe

Customer Ratings:

Another great shoe from Salomon! I have very high arches and usually have to use an strong carbon fiber orthotic in my Brooks running shoes (for years!). Over the past 12 months, I have been transitioning to all Salomon because to the level of comfort and support of the high arch works for me! No orthotic! I have the XR Mission this revew is for in the *awesome* celadon/papaya color combo, the XT Wings 2, and the XT Wings GTX for all weather hiking/trails/approach. They run large, you may have to go down a 1/2 size.

Got those shoes after I hurt my knees running on different shoes. Those shoes are great, offer great arch support and stabilize your foot.I am prone to hip and knee injuries if the shoes are not supportive enough. With these shoes, I haven't had a single injury. They are trail running shoes, but I run on them on a regular basis. I run on pavement,beach, grass, track, it holds up really good! If you need a lot of support, I recommend those shoes.

Best Deals on Salomon Women's XR Mission Running Shoe

I bought these because I'd heard great things about Salomon's as trail-running shoes. These shoes look great and seem like good hiking shoes, but the arches are too high for running (and I have high arches!). I had half-dollar sized blisters on the arches of both feet following a 4-mile run, and the next run just continued to aggravate the spot. I don't recommend them for running, and I'll stick with my Asics.

Honest reviews on Salomon Women's XR Mission Running Shoe

I purchased this shoe based on all the reveiws that pointed out the high arch, deep instep and wide toe box. For some, this is a problem. For me, this sounded like exactly what I needed. And, it was. However, despite these exaggerated features, it still runs large. I generally wear an 8.5 (women's) based on my need for extra width. But if a shoe is wide enough, I only need an 8 in length. I was surprised to discover that even the 8 was too big. It really is a great shoe, but I could have gone down to a 7.5, a full size under my other running/walking shoes. I didn't want to add a separate insole, as this one has the high arch that I need, and I didn't want to mess with that. I solved the problem simply by wearing a very thick athletic sock.

Size aside, I am pleased with the shoe. I am a power walker, averaging 100-120 miles/week, and I wanted a shoe with lots of support that could hold up under this level of workout. This shoe certainly fits that need. The first thing I noticed was how nicely the ventilated toe allows the air to go through the shoe. The extreme arch support is fantastic and the wide base really keeps my knees in line, saving me a lot of pre-taping. And, as you can see, the shoe is a "looker". I get lots of compliments whenever I wear them. All in all, I'm pleased with the shoe. I would just suggest that, unless you have really long toes, order a full size smaller than you usually wear. Definitely not recommended for a long, narrow foot.

I am not a runner; however, I spend most of my day on my feet and often "on the run", so I decided to try these. I love them! Often, I have a hard time manipulating the steps because my knees hurt, but for some reason, ever since I have had these shoes, I have not had a problem. I swear, these shoes make me feel like I can run and I want to. I find myself bouncing up the steps, sometimes 2 at a time. They are super comfortable, easy to put on, and I love the pull string systme in place of the ties. The great color combo is just a bonus as it is super cheery. I realize this review may sound exaggerated, but for someone who has bad knees and bunyons, to be able to stand all day and at the end of the day still go for a long walk with her kid, it's HUGE. So, I highly recommend these to anyone who is in search of great comfort, support, and quality. This shoe has it all.
