Does the Salomon Toundra Pro CSWP really run small?

Yes, several owners say it fits about a size small, especially with thick socks. Many recommend going up one size from your normal boot size.

Is it warm enough for -40°F?

Salomon rates it to -40°F/-40°C with Aerogels insulation. Most owners find it very warm, but a few said it was not warm enough in deep snow, so pair it with wool socks in extreme cold.

Is it fully waterproof?

It uses a ClimaShield waterproof membrane and a gusseted tongue to keep snow and slush out. Most owners stay dry, but some reported leaks after a couple of weeks of use.

How does it compare with the Salomon Toundra GTX?

The CSWP uses Salomon's ClimaShield membrane rather than Gore-Tex. Both are cold-weather boots with Ice Grip outsoles; the CSWP is the more insulated, heavier-duty option for deep cold.

Is it good for everyday city wear?

It works, but it is bulky and stiff at first, and the aggressive Ice Grip sole is loud on hard floors. It makes more sense for snow, trails and outdoor work than for office days.

One pair of boots. Insoles are included; socks and care products are not.
