@JDelageAre Salomon’s really good for hiking?  I’ve read mixed reviews on their sneakers and have been hesitant on buying them for that reason.

So far so good. Some other people on our trip were just telling me they love theirs.

@mlwdp I have some trail running shoes and like 'em a lot for fit, grip and comfort - notably with great lacing system

You've been after an MA-1 style jacket for a while Paul, so how's the fit on that one? Sleeves look a bit long to me but it could be just the pic

I’ve got a 10+ yr old pair that has served me quite well. Granted, in that time I’ve logged most of my hiking miles in Merrell barefoot trail runners but still plenty on the Solomons. At this point they probably should be replaced sooner than later but they’re also still up for long days.

The sleeves are fine for me, I didn’t notice it.

the fit is boxy.

its a “fashion” ma1 , so unfortunately the inner pockets are not like on the military ones. If you turn it inside out , the pockets are useful .

im not going to. 
happy with it

^ I never really got into approach shoes. Always just wore trail runners for anything and everything on rough terrain, until I realized I really prefer more ankle support and don’t mind the extra weight

It looks very nice. The nylon seems to be a good quality. That can make a difference, I think.

With the sleeves, I think, they're that long on purpose to get these nice wrinkles. Sometimes the shape is also designed in a curved way to accentuate that.

“Approach shoes” 

They make more non-approach shoes than approach shoes though, right? I was wearing Altra/Topo for years but they never lasted very long. I bought a pair of La Sportiva Ultra Raptor's on clearance by chance and they've been excellent. 

Have lasted significantly longer than other trail runners I've owned and they are hella grippy after hundreds and hundreds of miles. Very sad that they discontinued them as I have problem feet and they worked very well from the jump.

I get out of bed and before my feet even touch the floor i pull on a pair of Yoko wool slippers, get dressed, change into Birks, pair of Redwings, walk to the car, driving loafers.. drive to the Peaks, change into hiking boots, fell runners, approach shoes, rock shoes, non-approach shoes.. into trail runners, pub shoes.. back into the driving loafers, Redwings,  Birks, Yoko's and back to bed..

With a routine like that 00 you're truly the embodiment of what everyone working in marketing / advertising dreams of.
