Perfect for extreme lifestyles like rugged hiking to the grocery store and back to pick up some bread

I just got back from camping and they were excellent! It actually rained on the 1st day, but these were easy to get on and off into the tent. Really like these

Great review! Just picked these up and went a half a size down; so l’m glad you agree. The Addis store in NYC said they ran a bit big. I’m only using them for walking. I tried the Gortex Nike, Asics, and Hoka’s. Also picked up the Gortex Brooks. Which are fine. But these to me are by far the most stylish, comfortable, and most well built out of any of them. Purchased the black as well. More expensive but worth it!

From my experience most “hiking” shoes are a little wider/bigger, which is good in my opinion because it gives me the option to wear some thicker warmer socks and still have room in the shoe. Maybe that’s why the sizing seems a little off.

I have these and the Ultraboost 21 in the same size, I would say the fit is a bit bigger, but I would also counter with the types of socks you are wearing will be thicker if you are wearing there anyway. I think being able to wear thick socks is nice, but yeah could size one down but its a more rigid shoe than a regular sneaker so if its too tight I think it would be uncomfortable, I kinda like a more spacious sneaker/boot. The goretex version is a bit sweaty but is nice and warm and water proof. The tread is nice on wet surfaces and gives your confidence to walk normally.

Great alternative to the boots. Huge fan of the Terrex Free hiker GTX line. Might cop the lows because the weather in New England is going to get crazy come the Fall time.

Just picked these up for $90 and the regular Free Hiker 2.0 for $80. Love end of year clearance sales

Copped a pair from the adidas I work at. I went TTS, I found on regular gtx and Cold.Rdy versions I half sized up. But the low I went tts and they fit well.

Really hoping that these will hit the outlets at some point just like the highs did!

I just needed a pair of waterproof ultra boost, thanks for confirming the comfort ability

Just got mine and glad I went down half a size thanks hez

Perfect for the fall weather coming up! Can you do a review on the Nike Pegasus Trail 4 GORE-TEX soon and compare both?

I have a pair of the non Gore-Tex. While they are comfortable and rugged, after 4 months of wear they have a hole on each shoe. Kinda disappointed they only lasted 4 months, being worn 4 days a week.

I own these. They are absolutely fantastic comfort wise, but after one week of use the black coating on the boost material has started coming away showing the original white boost and they look horrible. I’ve restored to using a permanent black marker pen to hide the problem. 10/10 for comfort and water resistance but they won’t look good for long. A real shame.

This or the NB hierro goretex?

8.5 here, bought 9, exclusively for fall/winter with thick socks

Thanks for doing the review. I got this pair for my wife a few days ago to replace her old pair of SKYCHASER from 6 years ago but she found it too bulky for her liking so I ended up keeping for myself as we ware the same sizes because the midsole is much more comfortable over all the variants of V.1 models and so much easier to slip in & out over the boots versions even though I was saving up for the V.2 C.RDY (ID4226) and V.2 MWN (IG3333). ONE HUGE CONCERN on the new V2 is the quality of the black BOOST. my V.2 Triple Black BOOST is flaking off already after 6 months use and is showing some white BOOST through which has been reported in many Adidas reviews that Adidas would not honor the warranty for replacement. This has never happened to my other 10+ black/colored BOOST I currently own for 1~10 years. I hope Adidas will address this matter for the current owners and fix this on the newer releases for me to purchase more newer releases. Regarding of the size and fit, it felt just a "very little" bit longer with my summer wool socks (because "COTTON KILLS" when hiking!); however, when I ware the winter wool socks from Costco they fits just fine with just enough room for feet expansion. As V.2 GTX is much more padded and waterproofing is included all the way to the tong compare to the V.1 GTX's vented none waterproofing tong I am expecting my feet to heat/swallow up a bit faster. The extra space also accommodates either the Hefe Luxx Ultra Deluxe 2.0 Comfort Insoles in the summer for extra BOOST or All Bird wool insole perfectly to keep my sole with extra support, warm, dry and odor free!

How about your feet type ? I got wide feet and not sure to go down size as you said.

How squishy arr they really? I had Ultraboost ATR and switched to Hierro v6 when boost midsole fell apart. The upper in NB git torn quite quickly, especially on the toebox and collars. Now I need New waterproof max cushion shoes. For now Hoka challenger gtx is my pick, but I'm still looking. Too bad Pegasus Trail 3 has serious traction issues on wet surfaces.

How do they compare to the fresh foam hierro 7 gtx?

Which pair would you prefer this one or the hierro v7 GTX?

No doubts abt the comfort of these boots. What is stopping me from buying them is that the outsole will peel or get detached. The outsole rubber shrink/expands at a different rate from the boost midsole foam. Outsole separation is such a common issue with adidas shoes. I hate to buy an expensive pair of shoes but having to reglue the outsole after every wear

Are they actually breathable, my feet get so hot in gtx

all weather shoes with ultraboost comfort

would you recommend these or the nb hierro v7 gtx?

I really wish they'd kept the design of the V1, don't think I'll be picking up any with the V2 design, even though I've wanted a low top version

I wear a 1/2 to a full size smaller in every Adidas shoe I've tried.

Try new balance fresh foam x hierro gtx

just wondering, this adidas terrex free hiker 2 can handle winter temperature ?

These are fire 🔥 I also found them wide I’m a 9.5 should have got a 9

Fom me half size up for the boot?These? Is it really more spacious?

Thanks for the review

Hey, great video! Did you ever get a 9? I got a half size lower and it feels a bit tight

Hes, these or the UB Light Gore-Tex? These are $108 versus $220 for the UB Light Gore-Tex

Best sneaker boot imo is the Hoka Kaha Hi.

Adidas I need a triple black for LEO's

Need wider toe box

I just got them and I am so disappointed - I have to return them. The cushioning and ride seems basicalyy the same as in Hoka Speedgoat 5, which I also have, but the boost is more responsive. It doesn't necessarily mean one can go faster in Adidas, since they are noticeably heavier. Free Hikers also have more room for the toes. Hokas at the same size have quite narrow toebox and definitely worse lockdown, I would have to tighten the laces to uncomfortable level - very thin tongue doesn't help. Unfortunately Free Hikers have even bigger flaw - quite firm, protruding padding on the heel with exposed stiches. It just hurts my heels to the point I feel the blisters coming up. Neither Free Hiker Low nor Speedgoat is a match for my old Hierro v6 in terms of comfort. They may have more cushioning and isolation from terrain, but Hierros are just more plushy both in the ride and the upper. Having softer sole and not so agresive lugs, the Hierros are also more versatile for everyday use - walking, running, road, trail - everything comes easy in them. If only they had more durable upper, which after 6 just months became a mess.

Need a vid for free hiker 2 cold ready

is it good for playing around in winter snow?

Is this model longer than the mid-tops too or is it just wider in the toe box?

The boot one looks much better

how about soulstride flow gtx? Have you tried it out?

Fresh foam x hierro v7 gtx or these?

Hi, can this shoes go fo running?

The fit is perfect for normal size feet. Toe box has good room for a size 13 foot, and allows for swelling for longer wear. The boot version was absolutely too small and unbearable to wear, returned them.

My favorite boot and luckily I get 30% off

Did they make a mid/ high that wasn’t waterproof?

Got those Low version (as well as normal one) and must say that Adidas is year after year downgrading it's shoes/boots. Both normal and Low I got are soaking water via tip of toebox. Quality control in Adidas is lately on lowest bottoms since shoes look poorly made (for this price point). I had home few pairs of old Adidas Terrex Agravic Flow GTX (v.1) as well as Agravic Speed 3D GTX and both of those shoes are simply WAY BETTER in terms of quality and water protection. Recently Adidas is doing SUPERBLY BAD job in making shoes and pricing those. Shame Adidas. And BTW mate. Pouring some water from a glass on shoes is NOT a test - paper sandals wouldn't soak water in such way. Just put those into the water so that water be below ankle area and THEN check the water resistance - but best put some paper to it so that we can see the results. I mean I like the fact that you review some boots/shoes but do it properly. And if you review Free Hiker 2 Low then compare it to Skychaser 2. Then people would have some perspective. I honestly hate Adidas for teasing me with those shoes. In theory everything looks so great (and when you walk it really is because of the boost - and this apply both to normal and Low version) but water-resistance-wise those are SOOOOOOOOO BAD (both models).

And these are $240 in Canada 🤦‍♂️

They're big for thicker socks 😊

I like ❤😊

Nah the hightop has 0 ankle lockdown and its wobly , this should be better

Same with me. I usually get a size 9.5. Got mine today and will go for an exchange for a size 9. It's a really nice and comfy shoe!
