Full details
The Salomon X ULTRA 360 Hiking Shoes are designed for adult male hikers seeking a blend of comfort and performance across varied terrains.

Troubleshooting
QuickLACE system feels too tight or loose
Adjust the tension by pulling or loosening the toggle. Ensure the excess lace is tucked securely into the lace garage to prevent it from loosening during activity.
Grip feels insufficient on very wet or muddy surfaces
While designed for varied grip, extremely slick conditions may require slower movement. Ensure the outsole is free of mud or debris that could impede traction.
Discomfort or rubbing after initial wear
This is common with new footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. If discomfort persists, check the fit and consider if a different size or width is needed.
Water ingress during wet conditions
These shoes offer some water resistance but are not fully waterproof. For prolonged exposure to water, consider waterproof hiking boots or gaiters. Ensure the tongue is properly seated to minimize water entry through the lacing area.
