The picture does not do it justice. I got black, it fits true to 7.5 but if you use "thick socks" go up a half size. Otherwise i have a normal foot, but need to wear them to stretch a tiny bit. A half size more is too big for me. if you have a high arch, edema water swelling, or wide foot, go up a full size. I wore the Salomon Trail Runner shoe all day, no hurt feet and it is great gripper sole, Gortex, thin laces, cushioned height heal that is like walking on air. So comfortable. The sole is aggressive so it is anti-slip too. Like a gripper sole. Definitely not clunky. With the added sole heal height it is nice for the legs and back comfort too. I need a shoe horn to slide into the runner but no big deal. The tongue has a pull up tab but the heel needs a shoe horn, works better. Seniors need to sit down and use a shoe horn but they would love these too. They are not slip on kind of runner.
Now I recommend nurses, doctors, workers and retail persons, hikers, snow walkers and anyone who wants an aggressive raised slight heel and cushion sole for long hours of comfort to try these. I highly recommend them as inside support and soft ground connection with the Orthopedic heal height. You won't even notice it. One super great runner or mountain trail hiker. I think myself that i made a good decision to buy them and with no regrets. I can wear them to town with jeans and no winter boots. Bonus. Or go for a hike in the snow and no wet feet. I had them on 9 hours and no sore feet. i had a runner like this years back and it cost me over $300.00 then.

Excellent, Size down.
Somehow I lucked out and got them for $60! After reading reviews I sized a whole size down and glad I did. I purposely stepped in puddles and my feet were dry. And I tried them with thicker socks 🧦 to see how they work with an ankle cut shoe & it was very comfy. I think they offer great support for my feet as I can wear them for the entire day and my feet don’t feel tired afterwards. Great grip in the rain & mud. I haven’t worn them long enough to see any rips or problems with quality (1 month) but I’m taking them to the Rockies so will do another review after I put them through hell.

Product: I'm a fan of Salomon's equipment. These (epic) trail running shoes are: lightweight, great quality, water resistant and have proper grip. The tying mechanism is a nice touch too; keeps your shoes secured and it's time-efficient.
I ran in -25 weather, through the woods post-snowfall, and didn't feel the cold nor did I falter to the terrain. I recommend warm socks too though :)
Fit: Personally, it fits half a size too big compared to the norm. So if you're in-between size, scale down.
Shipping : expeditious and well packaged.
Photos: the running shot may be staged but the shoes are real!
