First impressions

I have a love-hate relationship with Salomon shoes. I generally love the look, feel and reliably category-leading design of the fleet-footed French running brand’s trail running shoes, but often the last used on their more performance-orientated models squeezes my forefoot and I find the toebox too tight.
