FAQs

What type of surfaces are these trainers best suited for?

The Salomon Aero Flw Gvl Trainers are designed for a versatile range of surfaces including asphalt roads, gravel paths, and light, well-maintained trails. The outsole offers adaptable grip for these mixed conditions.

How does the QuickLACE system work?

The QuickLACE system is an intuitive lacing system that allows for a secure, one-pull tightening of the laces. Simply pull the toggle upwards to tighten and lift it to loosen. The excess lace can be tucked into a small pocket on the tongue.

Are these trainers suitable for hiking?

While they can handle light trails, they are primarily designed as running trainers. For extended or more technical hiking, a dedicated hiking boot or shoe with more robust support and protection would be more appropriate.

How do I clean my trainers?

Remove excess dirt with a brush or damp cloth. Wash with cool water and mild soap if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

What is the primary benefit of the Energy Foam midsole?

The Energy Foam midsole provides a combination of dynamic cushioning for comfort and a reactive bounce, which helps to propel you forward and reduce fatigue during your runs.

Can I replace the QuickLACE system if it gets damaged?

Yes, replacement QuickLACE systems are available from Salomon or authorized retailers. They are designed to be a direct replacement for the original system.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The Salomon Aero Flw Gvl Trainers are not designed to be waterproof. They are built for breathability and quick drying, making them suitable for most running conditions but not for deep water crossings.

Troubleshooting

QuickLACE system feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the tension by sliding the toggle up or down. Ensure the toggle is securely locked into place. If the laces are worn, consider replacing the QuickLACE system.

Discomfort on longer runs

Ensure the shoe size is correct and allows for adequate toe room. Break in the shoes gradually on shorter runs. Check that the QuickLACE system is providing even pressure distribution.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

The outsole is designed for versatile grip but may perform differently on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal tread performance. For very challenging wet conditions, consider a shoe with a more aggressive tread pattern.

Trainer feels stiff after cleaning

Ensure the trainers are not dried with direct heat. Allow them to air dry naturally. Once dry, wear them for a short period to help them regain flexibility.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning and energy return for a comfortable ride.
  • Lightweight construction reduces foot fatigue.
  • Quick and secure lacing system for convenience.
  • Adaptable grip suitable for mixed terrain.
  • Comfortable transition from road to gravel.

Cons

  • May not offer sufficient support for highly technical trails.
  • Durability on very rough terrain might be a concern for some users.
  • The QuickLACE system may require an adjustment period for those unfamiliar with it.
  • Designed primarily for running, may not be ideal for extended hiking without significant trail features.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the QuickLACE system is loosened.
  2. Slide your foot into the trainer.
  3. Pull the lace toggle upwards to tighten the laces to your desired snugness.
  4. Tuck the lace toggle into the lace garage on the tongue to secure it.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for running on asphalt, gravel paths, and light trails.
  • Designed for adult male foot anatomy.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the upper and outsole. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For the interior, use a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  • Laces: The QuickLACE system should not be removed or modified. If the laces become worn, replacement QuickLACE systems are available from Salomon.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
