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.
