The Salomon XT Wings are great shoes. I wanted something that I can use for trails and on the road (I had top-of-the-range Asics for the road before). I took them for its first spin and they behaved well. The heal landing on downhills is very soft and remarkable stable. I did feel some of the larger stones through the frontfoot, but shoes with protective plates to prevent this are much heavier (and squeek). The outer sole seem more durable than a road shoe but still has good grip, but not like sticky rubber. Don't see this as negative as my super grip sticky rubber shoes lasted only 2 months. So if you want a light trail shoe that works on the road too, this shoe will do.. and it looks great.
