FAQs
Are these shoes truly waterproof?
Yes, they feature a full GORE-TEX waterproof bootie that provides a high level of protection against external water.
Can I use these for road running?
While they can handle pavement, they are specifically optimized for trail running and may wear down faster on hard, abrasive road surfaces.
How do I clean my Salomon Speedcross trainers?
Wipe them down with a damp cloth or soft brush. Do not use bleach or a washing machine.
Is the cushioning suitable for long-distance hiking?
Yes, the Salomon Cushioning System is designed to provide sustained comfort for long day hikes.
Does the protective band cover the whole shoe?
The protective band is positioned around the base of the upper to shield your feet from sharp rocks and debris.
What size should I choose?
These follow standard sizing, but it is recommended to ensure you have a small amount of space in the toe box for descent comfort.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels too hot during use
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool socks rather than cotton.
Mud accumulation on sole
Use a stiff-bristled brush once the mud has dried slightly to clear the lug pattern for better grip.
Moisture buildup inside the shoe
Check that the ankle collar is not exposed to overflowing water and allow the shoes to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Salomon Speedcross trainers, proper care is essential. Since these shoes feature a waterproof GORE-TEX membrane, avoid machine washing, which can damage the waterproofing properties; instead, clean them with a soft brush and lukewarm water after muddy treks. Ensure the trainers are completely dry before storage to prevent odors. For compatibility, these are designed for standard trail running socks; avoid thick, cotton-heavy socks which may retain moisture and diminish the effectiveness of the waterproof liner.
