The X Ultra 5 Mid GTX is Salomon's mid-cut waterproof hiking shoe, built for fast day hikes and light backpacking. It pairs a Gore-Tex membrane with a foam EVA midsole, an 11 mm drop and Salomon's quick-pull lacing, and weighs about 16 oz per shoe. Owners like the secure fit and grip on mixed terrain; the trade-offs are a stiff break-in and a mid-cut that offers support but less ankle protection than a full boot. It sits between lighter trail runners and heavier leather boots, closer to a hiking shoe than a mountaineering boot.
