Reviews & Ratings for Adidas Terrex Swift R Hiking Shoe - Mens — 6 reviews — Page 1

A solid shoe that wears like a boot. It offers ample support where I want it and as a nice aggressive tread pattern for light and moderate climbing and should be good for anything class III and below. The only things I do not like about the shoe are the lack of stowage of extra cordage from the lacing system- it just kind of flops about when you tighten the system down and I do not like that. The small elastic loop at near the toe of the shoe is insufficient to keep the extra lace secure. Another thing that I do not care for is how heavy/thick the shoe fabric is. For a non-waterproof shoe, it seems unnecessarily heavy and restricts breathability considerably with the tradeoff perhaps making for a slightly more sturdy/resilient frame around your foot.

All in all what I expected from Adidas which I have actually come back to over many comparible Saloman shoes due to fit, price, and LONGEVITY- the Adidas Terrex and Rockadia series just seem to take a beating and keep going considerably longer than all my Salomans have.

This is my second pair. The old pair didn’t fall apart they just became my yard shoes. I like the fit and the support and they’re very comfortable in spite of the firm sole. I did switch to standard laces on the first pair but so far I’m sticking with the quick lace system on the new pair.

These shoes look a less trail worthy from the top than others. The tread gives great traction and holds well on every surface I have used them on. The problem is the lacing system prevents getting the shoe tight enough to get the support needed. I had had a shoe degloved when caught in rocks. They are more like hiking in slippers than real shoes. I'm not sure I could replace the laces with real ones to overcome this problem.
If you want a shoe with the convince of slippers and tracks stuff in on the tread like something rugged, this is your shoe.

Awesome shoes my husband love them, he said they fit great light weight, he loves the shoe laces, the only thing he had to get some new insoles, the ones in the shoes were to thin. He loves his shoes. 2 thumbs up, 5 stars. Thanks.

Great shoes at a great price and fast shipping. Great place to purchase from. I will be using them again in the future.

I became a fan of these shoes that first day that I put them on. There was no break in time. The quick laces have made it so I don't think that I can go back to regular shoe laces. Overall great shoe.
