So my new Salomons arrived last week. I tried them on and they felt great. I was delighted, until I took them for a short walk no longer than 5 km. The top of the right shoe was rubbing just under my ankle bone. It didn't feel too bad so the next night I went again for another short walk. This time the rubbing was so bad it cut my ankle. The top of the shoe is padded so I don't understand why it's happening, and only on one foot. I talked to a friend who says to just wear them around for the next few weeks and the skin in that area will toughen up. Does anyone have any experience of this?
I am a fitness instructor and have had issues with any shoe that touches my ankle. I tried on many hiking shoes until I found the pair I just bought. It's the Soloman XAComp. It's basically a trail running shoe but it's not hitting my ankle. I tried on 2 though. One comes up higher than the one I bought and I bet you have that one. You do not want to keep a shoe annoying your ankle. It will actually end up bruising it and you'll be aware of it with every step. Get the XAComp 7. Awesome shoe. My daughter bought it also after trying on at least 12 others. And the first Soloman she tried was also the one that hits the ankle bone and she felt it right away. I've had cross trainers that do this and eventually my ankle would be so irritated that I could barely take a step much less try to teach a step class or run in them. This Soloman XAComp is also waterproof.So my new Salomons arrived last week. I tried them on and they felt great. I was delighted, until I took them for a short walk no longer than 5 km.
