Description
The Salomon Quest 5 GORE-TEX is a men's multi-day hiking boot that is tough as nails and waterproof. Salomon's 4D advancedCHASSIS gives stability and agility, and its light weight keeps you moving fluidly on and off the trail. A mix of nubuck leather, ripstop fabric and a GORE-TEX membrane keeps feet dry and holds up for years and miles. An All-Terrain Contagrip outsole grips wet, dry, hard or loose ground.
