## Description

The Mountain Trainer Mid GTX is a lightweight trekking shoe made of durable suede and abrasion-resistant textile material with a waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX lining. The shoe is designed to meet the rigorous demands of ascending and descending mixed and technical terrain. For this purpose, the Mountain Trainer Mid GTX is equipped with an innovative Bilight midsole. It is 2-layer, provides high cushioning and is ergonomically shaped for a secure fit in the shoe and reliable comfort even on long hikes. In the ankle area, the Flex Collar allows greater freedom of movement in the rear area and thus more comfort when descending, even with a heavy backpack. The lightweight and grippy Vibram Wrapping Thread Combi (WTC) outsole provides a stable yet natural walking feel. The patented SALEWA 3F system provides more flexibility, better heel hold and a blister-free fit from the first step. The GORE-TEX Performance Comfort lining provides optimal weather protection and climate comfort.

**Q: Are these suitable for a lot of pavement & road walking? 3/4 of my walking is on pavement 1/4 off road. Is the tread over the top for this?**
A: The Mountain Trainer Mid Gore-Tex is a lightweight men’s alpine trekking boot with a robust suede leather and fabric upper plus waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX® protection. Designed to provide extra flexibility and increased comfort on both ascents and descents during alpine trekking in mixed and technical terrain, the Mountain Trainer Mid Gore-Tex has a midsole with dual-density Bilight TPU Technology which is ergonomically shaped to cradle your foot and provide all-day comfort on longer hikes. Therefore, Salewa recommends that the shoes are suitable for roads and pavements.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant boots
*by D***D on 10 February 2025*

Arrived super fast. First impressions were that the boots felt a little stiff but they looked really well made and surprisingly light. I am a size 10 and had ordered a 10.5 and they were a snug fit. The soles are very grippy and a little stiff but I do prefer a stiff sole. The boot gives plenty of support to the ankles without rubbing. I put them on to do a 2 hour dog walk over the hills and moors and was very sceptical about the 100% blister free from the start claim. Well after 5 minutes I forgot that I had new boots on. No rubbing and no blisters. The boots are a joy to wear and 100% recommend them….

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comfy and durable and last well
*by J***D on 27 April 2023*

So this is an update on how the boots are going, I've had them for over a year now and I've done hundreds of miles over all sorts of terrain including the mountains in Scotland, Wales and loads in the Lakes. I usually wear Meindl's but the price of them has gone through the roof and I decided to take a punt on the Salewa Mountain Trainers.I'm glad I did, first of all I got lucky with the fit, they are awesome, I'm usually an 11 so I ordered an 11.5 (I think a 12 would have been ok too) and they are well fitting with a mid depth sock and snug (not too snug) with a big winter sock.They are waterproof, I've never had a problem with them and are robust, they have been kicked all over and the build quality seems fantastic. They were quite stiff at first but after a while they became very comfortable. The lacing is good and the system they have never lets your heel slip, in fact they have just the right amount of cushioning.The sole is quite aggressive looking with a fairly high drop but I always seem to have the right amount of feel/stiffness about them.Obviously they fit my feet well and I've got a second pair!Recommended by me and my feet!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love these boots.
*by R***R on 27 April 2025*

Love these boots. By far one of the better pair of walking boots i have owned. Salewa have a big range of walking boots to choose from so you should find what you need. . I used these for 5 weeks walking while on holiday in Europe. Most days i walked 10km, no sore feet or legs. I have not yet been hiking in them so i can't comment on how they go through rivers and the bush yet, but as a everyday walking boot i love them.
