NOTE: Salomon is quite small, so be sure to check the size chart* for the right size. In many cases you need a whole size larger than e.g. sports shoes.
(*A size chart is never a guarantee that the item is 100% correct in terms of size. (Since posture, foot shape, etc. have many variants. Trying on is the only way to be 100% sure about the size and fit)
