    Both of these are the sort of the new versions of the good old Salomon Quest 4D 3 GTX hiking boots.
    Both of these Salomon boots made it to the shelves and they already got a few online titles like best backpacking boots 2021, most comfortable hiking boots for men, best waterproof hiking boots for men, best hiking boots 2021, best hiking boots for men and a few more. Impressive!

    The Element has what Salomon calls a Mud Contagrip®sole. If you run your finger over it the rubber feels like a slightly softer gripper compound than the longer lasting 4D All Terrain Contagrip®

    Thanks for the great review as always. Do you think that the Element would be good for carrying the same weight in a pack as the Quest? Also, how do you find the element compares to the X Ultra 3 Mid and X Ultra 4 Mid? Be great to have a salomon shoot out! Cheers for your help, thanks

    Great channel, must watch here before you buy any boot. Im going to Iceland & Norway this summer, need a boot. Ill go with Salomon. Now Im going to try out the Pioneer mid soon, but what do you think is better for that terrain, still cold over there and wet. Ultra 4 GTX, Element GTX, or Quest 4 GTX? I don't usually hike, use boots in bad NY weather, rather not spend $230, but I could if its needed.

    Thanks for your time on reviewing the boots. I'm confused on why you would call them a "Survival Boot" and for "Survival Situations" they are surely nothing more than hiking boots and you would clearly have to remove them at the end of the day. I feel that having tested them for a few months would have been a fairer review of them.
    Thanks again for your time

    Hi mate I know they are very different boots but what would be your pick between the element and the lowa renegade you reviewed? I saw on the renegade review you seemed to like the quest 4 more but do the elements seem as durable as the renegades.

  • @papaspears5035
    @papaspears5035 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Lots of revies online saying the sizing of the elements are all wrong compared to other Solomans and that they leak. I'll be going for the gtx 4 i think.

    Which insoles would you reccomend for these boots? I have superfeet green on other footwear, but i find them surprisingly uncomfortable in these

  • @1maico1
    @1maico1 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I don't think the element has sold well. In Germany, the red ones are discounted down to 109 euros and the other colours 119 euro.
    Where I live in the UK the Quest 4 is popular selling at £139 GBP or £119 for the less popular tan colour with discount.

  • @aztlanahauc

    I looked at both boots but the bad reviews turn me off. I am very hard on boots and the fact that they cannot be resoled is a negative to me. I really like the Lowa Tibet GTX and the fact that it can be resoled and repaired by Lowa is a good thing. Hopefully you do a more in depth review on those.

    what is the best boot for Arizona 120 degree temps ??

    • @UltimateSurvivalGear
      @UltimateSurvivalGear  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Depends on what you are looking for. Personally, I would compromise protection and go with something super light and breathable, like a trail running shoe for a hot day in Arizona. Might want to go with something non-waterproof too, because it is more breathable. If rocky terrain involved, I'd go with something like an approach shoe, still light, but with stiffer outsole for better performance on rock.

    👎My Quest 4's front rubber tip, on toe box, started coming unglued on both boots during break-in period before even going on first hike. I've read many reviews stating that's common. But they are comfortable.
