FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for everyday casual wear?
Yes, while designed for trail running, their technical aesthetic and comfort features make them suitable for casual outdoor wear.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt, then wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What is the main advantage of the Gore-Tex (Gtx) feature?
Gore-Tex provides waterproofing to keep your feet dry in wet conditions and breathability to manage moisture from sweat.
How durable is the Contagrip® sole?
The Contagrip® sole is designed for durability and excellent traction across a variety of terrains, engineered to withstand significant wear.
Can I replace the Quicklace™ system?
Yes, replacement Quicklace™ kits are available from SALOMON or authorized retailers.
What kind of socks are recommended for these trainers?
Athletic or hiking socks made from moisture-wicking materials are recommended for optimal comfort and performance.
How do I adjust the fit with the Quicklace™ system?
Pull the lace lock upwards to tighten and press the button on the lock to loosen. Tuck excess laces into the lace pocket.
Troubleshooting
Laces not tightening securely
Ensure the Quicklace™ cord is properly threaded through the lock mechanism. Check for any debris obstructing the lock. If the cord is frayed or damaged, it may need replacement.
Water seeping into shoes despite Gore-Tex
Inspect the shoes for any visible tears or damage to the Gore-Tex membrane or seams. Ensure the tongue is properly positioned to create a seal. Clean the shoes as water can degrade performance if not maintained.
Discomfort or rubbing during wear
Allow for a break-in period. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Adjust the Quicklace™ system for a more personalized fit. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation.
Traction feels reduced on certain surfaces
Clean the Contagrip® sole to remove embedded mud or debris. The specific tread pattern is optimized for various conditions; performance may vary on extremely smooth, wet surfaces.

Care:
- Cleaning the Exterior: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Wipe down the mesh and synthetic materials with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or solvents.
- Cleaning the Interior: If necessary, remove insoles and wash them separately by hand. Allow the shoes to air dry completely.
- Drying: Never use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers to dry the shoes, as this can damage the materials and adhesives. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
