FAQs

Are these boots fully waterproof?

Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX membrane, which is designed to be completely waterproof while remaining breathable.

Can I use these for winter hiking?

While the boots offer excellent protection, they are primarily designed for all-terrain trekking. They provide good insulation, but are not specifically rated for extreme sub-zero temperatures.

How do I maintain the leather?

Clean dirt off after each use and use a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to prevent the material from drying out.

What is the benefit of the 'Mid' cut?

The mid-cut provides higher ankle coverage, offering increased stability and protection against debris and rock strikes compared to low-cut shoes.

Are these shoes heavy?

The X Ultra 360 is built to balance durability and weight, utilizing lightweight synthetic materials alongside protective leather to remain agile for long hikes.

Do I need to size up for hiking socks?

It is generally recommended to ensure your boots allow for a bit of room for thicker hiking socks, but many users find that sticking to their standard adult sizing is sufficient due to the design.

Troubleshooting

Foot slipping inside the boot

Adjust the lacing system to ensure a tighter fit across the instep and check that you are wearing appropriate hiking-specific socks.

Boots feel stiff initially

This is common with leather footwear. Wear them for short, 30-minute intervals around the house or on short walks until the leather flexes naturally.

Outer material showing dirt or stains

Gently clean the surface with a damp cloth or soft brush. Do not machine wash or use harsh chemical detergents.

Pros and Cons

  • Superior grip on wet and slippery terrain
  • Excellent waterproof protection
  • High level of lateral stability for uneven trails

  • Mid-cut design may feel restrictive to some users

  • Not suitable for extremely hot, non-technical environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Salomon X Ultra 360 boots, begin by wearing them for short walks on flat ground to allow the leather to conform to your foot shape. Ensure the laces are snug but not overly tight to maintain proper circulation. Compatibility is best with mid-to-heavyweight merino wool hiking socks, which wick moisture away efficiently. For care, keep the leather in optimal condition by cleaning off mud after every hike using a soft brush and lukewarm water. Avoid using direct heat sources, such as radiators, to dry the boots as this can cause the leather to crack; instead, air-dry them naturally at room temperature. Periodically re-treat the leather with recommended conditioners to maintain its waterproof qualities.
