Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX membrane that provides complete waterproof protection while remaining breathable.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Salomon shoes generally follow standard sizing; however, since they are leather, they may feel snug at first before molding to your foot.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
How should I clean the leather exterior?
Use a damp cloth and a soft brush to remove dirt. Avoid soaking the leather or using a dryer.
Are these suitable for winter hiking?
They offer excellent protection for shoulder-season and mild winter conditions, though they are not insulated for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of discomfort or hot spots during break-in
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking hiking socks and try relacing the shoe to distribute pressure more evenly across the midfoot.
Reduced waterproof performance over time
Clean the exterior thoroughly to remove caked mud that can clog pores, and consider applying a spray-on DWR treatment specifically formulated for leather and waterproof membranes.
Slippage on dry rock surfaces
Ensure the outsoles are clear of dried mud or debris, as the tread design functions best when clean and in direct contact with the rock.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your X Ultra 360 shoes, begin by wearing them for short walks on flat surfaces to break in the leather. For cleaning, remove heavy dirt and mud with a soft brush after every hike. Do not machine wash or use harsh detergents, as these can damage the GORE-TEX membrane and dry out the leather. If the interior gets wet, remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture in a cool, ventilated area away from direct heat sources. To maintain the leather, apply a specialized leather conditioner periodically to prevent cracking and maintain water resistance.
