adidas Men's Terrex Ax4 Hiking

Good traction in soft material. Fits my wide feet. Wears a little fast for my liking.

I'm on my second pair of these. I walk about 5 miles per day, and my first pair lasted well over a year of everyday use. I did insert inexpensive arch supports, which my feet have required for many years. They shoes are reasonably light, and the understated black color without obvious markings make them passable as casual dress shoes. I've already bought a third pair for the future. Mine were made in Vietnam, which I prefer over sourcing from China. I found the price reasonable for what I got. Will definitely buy again.

I have worn Addidas Terrex AX series shoes for years for hiking and to work outside. They are sturdy, durable, comfortable, and have good traction. These newer AX4 shoes are a different design than the AX2s and are a little tighter in the toes. It was not enough to go to a bigger size, but it is noticeable.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I looked at these and thought a designer may have left another company and ended up at Adidas. True or not, these are great shoes. Tons of support. True to size. Incredible comfort.

I have the Terrex insulated boot, they are excellent, I bought them in a 7.5, I wear a women's 9.5 in sport type shoes. Those fit great. These lower shoe model seemed a little short. I wore them in the house a lot to make sure my toe wasn't going to hit the end. I did keep them and they'll be fine, I'm not walking down any steep hills, but if I was I would reconsider. Great features of this shoe: Super grippy sole, very important on icy sidewalks. Also lots of height in the toe box, really need that, really appreciate it. At first they hit me in the ankles and I was concerned, but I bent the ankle parts back and forth a little to loosen them up, wore them in the house, it stopped bothering me right away. Really love the padding around the heel. Love the all black color. Just what I needed to wear with heavy wool socks on the city streets.

Purchased for my older son . These sneakers look great with jeans and shorts .

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT hike anywhere that's going to be in a wet and slippery environment...you WILL NOT have grip in a wet and slippery environment, and you will slip and fall down. The are for 100% for dry environment ONLY. I don't care who made the grip for the sole, it's absolutely no good for anything other than dry environments. Please, take my word, or you'll find out the hard way. Would not recommend for rock climbing either, HIKING PATHS ONLY. The sole of the shoe is garbage. Other than that, it fits well, and they are comfortable.

This is a good shoe, but not a great one. I had to superglue parts of it, namely one of the Adidas stripes. When it came to replacing them, I went with something else.
