Drawing from the heritage of the XT-Wing lineage, this shoe delivers exceptional foot stability and comfort, making it an ideal choice for varied terrain and daily wear.

FAQs
Is the Salomon XT-QUEST waterproof?
The XT-QUEST is designed with breathable mesh materials. While it is durable, it is not officially rated as waterproof.
Are these suitable for heavy hiking?
These trainers are inspired by alpine expeditions and provide excellent stability, making them very capable for light to moderate hiking, though they are categorized as trainers.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dust and dirt. For stains, use lukewarm water and a very mild detergent, gently dabbing the area.
Should I size up for these shoes?
Salomon trainers generally fit true to size, but if you intend to wear thick hiking socks, some users prefer a half-size increase.
What is the primary function of the 4D Advanced Chassis?
The chassis is designed to provide lateral stability and protect the foot on uneven surfaces, reducing the risk of fatigue.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the OrthoLite sockliner is removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points around the midfoot
Loosen the lacing slightly, especially around the midfoot area, to allow the SensiFit system to accommodate your specific foot volume.
Outer sole traction is reduced
Check the tread for debris or dried mud. Clean the outsole thoroughly with a stiff brush to restore the effectiveness of the Contagrip lugs.
Moisture accumulation inside the shoe
Remove the OrthoLite sockliner and allow both the insole and the shoe to air dry completely in a ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Salomon XT-QUEST trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the SensiFit system is adjusted snugly but not overtightened; it should feel like a firm hug around the midfoot.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after outdoor use. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Do not submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine.
- Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or fireplaces, which can damage the synthetic materials and the adhesive bonds.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the foam components.
