About this product

Our take
Finding NOS boots can be a hit or miss, but these Salomon leather hiking boots from 2003 offer a chance at classic quality. The Contagrip soles are a big plus, known for their excellent traction on varied terrain, which is crucial for backpacking. Being new old stock, the leather might be a bit stiff and could require a good break-in period, and there's no mention of modern waterproofing membranes. The design is clearly geared towards robust, traditional hiking, so if you appreciate that rugged simplicity, these could be a good find, especially for the price.
