Salomon X ULTRA 360 - Green - Hiking Shoes - UK 11

The X ULTRA 360 series generally offers a standard fit. While they provide a solid fit, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug. It's recommended to try them on if possible or consider socks that can aid in comfort.

Wear them for short walks around the house or on easy trails for a few days. Gradually increase the duration and difficulty of your walks. Pay attention to any pressure points and adjust lacing as needed.

While they offer good grip and stability, the X ULTRA 360 is primarily designed for hiking. For dedicated trail running, shoes with more flexibility and lighter construction might be preferable.

Contagrip soles are engineered for durability and wear resistance, providing reliable traction across various terrains and conditions over an extended period.

The advanced frame is integrated into the shoe to provide excellent stability and support, helping to protect your foot and ankle on challenging and uneven terrain.

Gore-Tex is designed to be waterproof yet breathable, which helps to manage moisture and sweat. However, in very high temperatures or during intense activity, some moisture buildup is possible.

Ensure laces are tied correctly and the tongue is sealed. Check for any damage to the Gore-Tex membrane or seams. Ensure socks are not saturated, which can transfer moisture.

Clean the Contagrip sole of any mud or debris. The tread may be worn down if the shoes are old; consider replacement if grip is significantly compromised.

The shoes may need a longer break-in period. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Check if the lacing is too tight or unevenly distributed.
