The Genesis Mid GTX is Salomon's cushioned mid-cut hiking shoe, built on a thick optiFOAM midsole with a GORE-TEX waterproof membrane and quickLACE. It sits at the plush end of Salomon's hiking line: maximal cushioning and a 39 mm heel stack favor comfort on long days and mixed terrain over the firm, precise feel of the X Ultra or the light speed of the Sense Ride. The mid collar adds ankle coverage for loaded packs and wet trails. Neutral support and a regular fit suit most hikers; the soft, tall stack gives up some ground feel and stability on rough, off-camber rock.

Owners treat the Genesis Mid GTX as a comfortable, weatherproof walking and light-hiking shoe. Praise centers on cushioning and the dry GORE-TEX upper; criticism lands on warmth, bulk and a soft ride that some find vague on rough terrain.
