FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
The Salomon XT-QUEST Trainers are designed with water-resistant materials but are not fully waterproof. They offer protection against light moisture but are not intended for submersion.
What is the main benefit of the 4D Advanced Chassis™?
The 4D Advanced Chassis™ provides enhanced support and stability for your foot, helping to prevent twisting and reducing fatigue, especially on uneven terrain.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping. Trying them on at the end of the day, when feet are typically slightly larger, is recommended.
Can these trainers be used for running?
While they offer good traction and support, they are primarily designed as trainers for hiking and mixed terrain use, rather than for high-impact running due to their robust construction.
How often should I clean my XT-QUEST trainers?
Clean your trainers after particularly dirty excursions or when they appear visibly soiled. Regular light brushing after use can also help maintain their condition.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The upper features a combination of quality leather for durability and classic style, alongside breathable mesh for ventilation.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Ensure the Contagrip® outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. For very worn outsoles, consider replacement.
Discomfort or pressure points
Adjust the lacing system for a more personalized fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the issue persists, the fit may not be suitable for your foot shape.
Upper material appears worn
Regular cleaning and conditioning of the leather can help maintain its appearance and durability. Address any loose threads or scuffs promptly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are ready to wear out of the box, requiring no initial setup. They are compatible with standard socks. To care for your XT-QUEST trainers:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can degrade the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
