FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
While comfortable and supportive, these shoes are specifically designed for trail running and outdoor activities, featuring aggressive tread for grip. They can be worn casually, but their primary purpose is performance on varied terrain.
How do I clean the Gore-Tex membrane?
The Gore-Tex membrane is integrated into the shoe lining. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is sufficient. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
What is the purpose of the reinforced toe cap and mudguard?
These features provide extra protection against impacts from rocks, roots, and other trail debris, enhancing durability and foot safety during rugged use.
How durable is the Contagrip technology?
Contagrip technology is known for its robust design and excellent wear resistance, providing long-lasting traction on a wide range of surfaces.
Can the Quicklace system be replaced?
Yes, Quicklace laces and systems are typically replaceable. Contact Salomon customer support or a specialized outdoor retailer for replacement parts and instructions.
Are these shoes true to size?
It is recommended to check the size guide and measure the child's foot for the most accurate fit. While generally true to size, individual foot shapes can vary.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the Quicklace system and adjust the fit, ensuring even tension. If still uncomfortable, check if the size is correct for the child's foot.
Water seeping into shoes
Ensure the Gore-Tex membrane is intact and not damaged. Check that the Quicklace system is properly tied to prevent water entry from the top. Allow shoes to dry completely before next use.
Traction issues on slippery surfaces
Clean the outsole lugs to remove mud and debris, which can impair grip. Ensure the shoes are appropriate for the specific surface conditions.

Compatibility: These trail running shoes are designed for outdoor activities on varied terrain. They are suitable for hiking, trail running, and general outdoor play.
Care: To clean, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For tougher dirt, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and membrane. Allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat sources.
