Product Information
Full details
The Salomon Speedcross Trainers are designed for active kids who enjoy outdoor exploration and rugged terrain. These shoes offer exceptional stability and traction, ensuring young adventurers stay secure on unpredictable paths. While they provide fantastic support for rough trails, parents should note that the aggressive tread pattern is optimized for dirt and mud, making them less ideal for extended use on hard, flat pavement.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
This specific model emphasizes breathability and traction. While durable, they are not marketed as fully waterproof.
Can children use these for gym class?
While they are comfortable, the aggressive tread is designed for trails. They may feel bulky on indoor gymnasium floors.
How should I clean the shoes?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap for the exterior. Air dry at room temperature; never tumble dry.
What is the benefit of the Quicklace system?
It provides a quick, secure fit that doesn't come undone like traditional shoelaces, which is ideal for active children.
Are these suitable for hiking?
Yes, they are excellent for hiking on dirt, gravel, and muddy trails due to their high-traction Contagrip outsoles.
How do I know if the size is correct?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between the end of the longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for growth and movement.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too loose during activity
Ensure the lace toggle is pushed all the way down toward the tongue and securely tucked into the lace garage.
Mud building up on the outsole
Use a stiff-bristled brush to clear out the gaps between the lugs once the mud has dried.
Difficulty getting the shoe on
Loosen the Quicklace system fully before attempting to put the shoe on; ensure the tongue is pulled forward to create a wide opening.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent grip on soft or uneven terrain
- Easy-to-use lacing system for kids
- Provides high levels of stability and foot support
- Durable construction suitable for active play
Cons
- Not optimized for long-distance pavement running
- Aggressive lugs may wear down faster on asphalt
- Limited size range for older teenagers
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance, ensure the Quicklace system is tightened enough to hold the foot firmly without creating pressure points. The lace toggle should be tucked into the designated lace pocket on the tongue to prevent snagging on branches or debris.
Care Instructions:
- After muddy adventures, allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
- Use a soft brush to remove dried mud from the lugged outsoles to maintain traction.
- Do not machine wash; clean by hand using a damp cloth and mild soap to preserve the structural integrity of the upper materials.
