FAQs
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX membrane designed to keep your feet dry in wet, rainy, or muddy conditions.
Can I use these for long-distance backpacking?
Yes, their stable chassis and durable leather construction make them suitable for backpacking, provided you have properly broken them in.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the leather or using harsh chemicals that could strip the finish.
Do these shoes come in wide sizes?
This specific model follows standard adult sizing. Check individual listings for width specifications if available.
Is the sole stiff or flexible?
The X Ultra 360 features a balance between stiffness for support on uneven ground and enough flexibility for comfortable walking.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels loose inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing system to ensure a snug fit across the midfoot, ensuring the tongue is centered.
Water entering the shoe
Ensure the shoe is laced tightly to the top. If water continues to enter, check the leather for deep scratches or wear that may have compromised the outer surface.
Excessive heat buildup
Wear moisture-wicking hiking socks to manage sweat, as the waterproof GORE-TEX membrane naturally limits breathability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Salomon X Ultra 360 shoes, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. After hikes in muddy conditions, remove surface dirt using a soft brush. If the interior gets wet, remove the insoles and let the shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the leather. To maintain the waterproof properties of the GORE-TEX membrane and the leather upper, periodically apply a leather-safe water-repellent treatment. Always ensure your laces are pulled evenly to engage the Advanced Chassis support effectively.
