I have owned these shoes for 6 months, and I have put them through a lot, but that is what they are designed for. Unfortunately, the eyelet for the shoe lace that is closest to the toe broke along with the shoe lace. If you look closely at the eyelet near the toe, you will see that it is made of a nylon, not plastic, like the other eyelets. As a result, the eyelets on my shoes have worn down and one has blown out already. Once the eyelet breaks, the shoe is difficult to wear.

I have been buying products from Amazon for more than 10 years and this is the first time I have ever felt compelled to write a review. This is the second pair of Salomon trail runners that I have owned. Each pair has given me roughly 5 months of faithful service. They're extremely comfortable, sturdy and most importantly, waterproof. However, the lacing system is a nightmare. On my first pair, the friction from the laces rubbing against exterior lining on the toe created a gash that all but eliminated their ability to keep water out. You can't simply replace the laces either, as they are integrated into the shoe. However, I liked the shoes enough to buy another pair. Not surprisingly, roughly five months in, the friction from the laces rubbing against the outside of the toe had caused yet another gash that cut right through the gore-tex lining. However, I continued to wear them, as I wasn't about to give up on a pair of shoes that cost me $130. Shortly after the hole developed in the lining, one of the grommets that holds the laces in place broke, making the shoe virtually unwearable. I have now spent close to a month trying to get Salomon to replace the shoes and have found their customer service to be as ineffective as their lacing system. They refuse to give out a telephone number and have no e-mail contact. The tell you to go to an authorized dealer for all returns, but neglect to mention that the dealer can't be a big box store (Dicks, REI, etc.). I am now in the process of trying to find a dealer who will process the return for me. For $130+ dollars, I expect more from a shoe and the manufacturer.

True to size, especially in length. Waterproof, good looking, stable & comfortable, easy on & off. One of the best shoes I've ever owned and the most supportive & confidence inspiring low trail shoe I've owned.6-22-10 UPDATE> I've worn through the soles & I'm looking to buy another pair. People who stop using these because the laces break are being silly & wasteful. Mine broke & I just tied a small square knot at the break & put a small spot of waterproof glue on the knot to keep it secure. You can recenter the top clasp & pull tab easily. The repair is barely noticeable. They're still going strong after months of hard use. I did the same to the right shoelace because it was frayed in the same area. I cut & repaired it to avoid a break during a nightime jaunt with my dog.
