Full details
The Salomon X Ultra 360 Leather Mid Gore-Tex is designed for serious hikers and outdoor enthusiasts who require a blend of traditional durability and modern agility. Built on the iconic X Ultra legacy, these boots provide exceptional all-terrain grip, waterproof protection, and lateral stability, making them an excellent choice for unpredictable trail conditions. While the rugged leather construction offers high-level protection and support, users should be aware that the mid-cut design requires a brief break-in period to achieve optimal comfort.

FAQs
Are these boots fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature a Gore-Tex membrane that provides a reliable waterproof and breathable barrier.
Can I use these boots for winter hiking?
While the boots offer protection and grip, they are designed as all-terrain hiking footwear and do not contain specialized insulation for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
How do I clean the mud off the leather?
Use a soft brush to remove dried mud, followed by a damp cloth. Never submerge the boots in water or use harsh detergents.
Do I need to break these boots in?
Yes, because the boots feature high-quality leather, they will soften and mold to your feet over several short hikes.
What is the primary benefit of the Advanced Chassis?
The chassis provides lateral stability and support, helping to prevent fatigue and ankle rolls on uneven terrain.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels slightly cramped inside
Try relacing the boots using a different lacing technique, or ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking hiking socks of the correct thickness.
Boots feel slippery on smooth surfaces
Clean the outsole with warm water and a brush to remove dried mud or debris stuck in the lugs, as the Contagrip pattern needs clear contact with the ground to function.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Salomon boots last for many seasons, proper maintenance is essential.
- Break-in: Wear your boots on short, flat walks before taking them on long-distance mountain treks to allow the leather to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: After muddy hikes, remove loose dirt using a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, wipe the leather with a damp cloth. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can dry out and crack the leather.
- Waterproofing: While the Gore-Tex handles internal waterproofing, you can treat the exterior leather with appropriate conditioning waxes to maintain its suppleness and water-repellency.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
