FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for winter hiking?

Yes, the GORE-TEX membrane makes them effective for damp, cold conditions, though they are not insulated for sub-zero temperatures.

How do I maintain the leather upper?

Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid using heavy oils that might clog the pores of the GORE-TEX membrane.

Can I use custom insoles in these shoes?

Yes, the factory insoles are removable, allowing you to insert aftermarket orthotics if preferred.

Do these shoes need to be broken in?

Yes, because of the leather upper, it is recommended to wear them on short walks before heading out on a multi-day trek.

Are these considered waterproof?

They feature a GORE-TEX membrane, which provides a high level of waterproof protection against rain, mud, and shallow puddles.

Troubleshooting

Water leaking through the shoe

Check the interior for debris or small tears and re-treat the exterior leather with a quality waterproof spray.

Slipping on wet surfaces

Ensure the outsole lugs are free of mud or compacted debris, as trapped dirt can prevent the rubber from engaging with the ground.

Heel slippage while walking

Adjust your lacing pattern using the eyelet closer to the ankle to 'lock' your heel in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Salomon X Ultra 360s, proper care is essential.

  1. Initial Fit: Ensure the shoes are snug but not tight. Leather tends to conform to the foot shape after a few miles, so avoid sizing too large.
  2. Cleaning: After muddy hikes, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the GORE-TEX membrane.
  3. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, which can crack the leather.
  4. Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather-safe treatment to maintain the suppleness of the upper material and preserve the water-resistant properties.
