FAQs
Is the Salomon Orava Advanced suitable for wide feet?
The shoe is built on a standard performance last; while it offers good support, individuals with significantly wide feet may find it snug.
Can I use these for running?
While highly supportive and durable, they are categorized as high-performance trainers designed for daily activities and light movement rather than dedicated long-distance running.
How do I ensure the correct size?
Salomon trainers generally follow standard UK sizing conventions. We recommend measuring your foot at the end of the day when it is at its largest.
What is the primary material used?
The Orava Advanced uses a mix of high-durability synthetic textiles and reinforced structural elements for optimal performance.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
They are designed for breathability and comfort in standard conditions; they are not marketed as waterproof.
How often should I clean the trainers?
Wiping them down after heavy use or exposure to mud will extend their life and maintain the look of the black/green aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight out of the box
The Orava Advanced features a performance fit; wear them for short durations indoors to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
Accumulation of dirt on the exterior
Use a soft brush and lukewarm water to gently scrub the affected areas, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Salomon Orava Advanced trainers, it is recommended to keep them clean by wiping away mud and surface debris with a soft, damp cloth after each use. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can compromise the material bonds and the structural foam. For storage, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation. If the shoes become wet, air dry them naturally; do not place them on a radiator or near direct heat sources, as this can warp the sole and affect the fit.
