You’re gonna just have to try some and find those that *you* like that perform and last the way *you* want. I like Terrex Swift waterproof grip (Continental sole). Great support. Have had three pair. Adidas replaced one for free because the sole separated. But, in general, they didn’t last very long. I like Salomon Speedcross 5. Not great for wide feet though. Lasted longer than Terrex and lighter. If you toe drag, you’ll easily wear a hole. I may buy another pair if hit a sale. Nike Pegasus Gore-Tex Trail. Super light, great waterproof. Lasted well, especially for the super light feel. Not as much lateral support as some others. Toe tread eventually separated. Extended life via shoe-goo. Would definitely buy on sale.

Salomon Speedcross 5 or 6 are trail running, waterproof shoes that work nicely for DG. The fit tends to be somewhat slim, so best to try them on for proper sizing, which could be a number different than your norm.

I've had a pair of solomon speedcross 3 for about 10 years that I've been in love with. With a good pair of socks I think they're pretty good for the winter.

I've ran Spartan Sprint, Super, and Beast and Tough Mudder 10 km and 15 km with Salomon Speedcross 5. The traction was good. I don't have other shoes to compare them to, so not sure how they drain water comparatively, but I plan to keep using them.

Wide boi here - oddly enough the Salomon Speedcross 6 works really really well for me, and not even in the wide size that they do make - just half a size up. Something about the upper design is extremely accommodating. No other Salomon fits me. Maybe worth a try.

Salomon Speedcross GTX have never failed me, I thought the 6 series damaged a bit easily, but if you go direct with Salomon you have a 2 year warranty to fall back on

sme for me. Salomon Speedcross has been my go-to. THE speed cross 4 where the best. The toe box was far more durable - they wore out in my heel before toes and It been the 6 are falling apart in comparison. Looking at either a new pair already 4 months in and may settle for the bushnado as I heard they are more durable.

I have a pair of Salomon speedcross 6 too. Probably them too for the real easy hikes and go from there.
