FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The XT-Quest is designed for durability and breathability; while they handle light moisture well, they are not strictly marketed as waterproof.
Can I use these for long-distance hiking?
They are suitable for light hiking and daily activity, though for technical, high-altitude trekking, Salomon offers specialized mountaineering models.
How do I determine the right size?
Salomon trainers typically fit true to size. We recommend measuring your foot at the end of the day when it is at its largest and comparing it to the size guide.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable if you need to insert your own custom orthotics for specialized support.
What is the best way to lace them for a secure fit?
Ensure you tension the laces evenly from the bottom up to lock the heel in place, preventing slippage during walking.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort during initial wear
The shoe features a supportive chassis that may require a short 'break-in' period of 3-5 days of light use to adapt to your foot shape.
Difficulty maintaining cleanliness
Treat the exterior with a water-repellent spray specifically designed for synthetic technical footwear to make future dirt removal easier.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after use. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging in water.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can damage the specialized bonding materials.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent material degradation over time.
