FAQs
What is the main advantage of the 4D Advanced Chassis™?
The 4D Advanced Chassis™ is engineered to provide enhanced stability and support, helping to reduce fatigue and improve your stride on uneven or challenging terrain.
Are these shoes suitable for heavy rain or snow?
While the Contagrip® outsole offers good traction, these trainers are primarily designed for trainers and light hiking. They offer some protection, but for prolonged exposure to heavy rain or snow, waterproof hiking boots may be more appropriate.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the Salomon sizing chart, paying close attention to measurements for UK/EUR sizes. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided guide. Trying them on if possible is always the best approach.
Can I wear these for everyday use?
Yes, the XT-QUEST trainers feature a hybrid design that makes them suitable for casual everyday wear, offering both style and comfort.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed with a combination of breathable mesh and durable leather overlays, including a hardy toe cap for added protection.
How should I clean the mesh parts of the trainers?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, gently wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Allow to air dry completely.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Ensure the Contagrip® outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. For persistent issues on very slick surfaces, consider alternative footwear designed for extreme conditions.
Discomfort or rubbing after initial wear
Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Ensure correct lacing technique for optimal support. If discomfort persists, double-check the sizing and consider socks that offer better cushioning.
Leather overlays appear dry or cracked
Apply a suitable leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear to moisturize the leather and restore its flexibility. Follow the conditioner's instructions carefully.
