Product Information
Full details
The Salomon Speedcross Peak hiking shoes are designed for female hikers and trail enthusiasts who prioritize reliable traction and a secure fit on challenging terrain. These shoes excel in providing stability on uneven surfaces through their aggressive lug design, making them a top choice for off-road performance. One important caveat is that this specific model does not feature integrated Gore-TEX technology, meaning they are best suited for dry or mixed conditions rather than heavy rainfall or deep puddles.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, this version of the Salomon Speedcross Peak does not include a waterproof Gore-TEX membrane.
How should I clean my Salomon hiking shoes?
Gently clean with a soft brush and water. Never put them in a washing machine or tumble dryer.
What is the primary use for the Speedcross lug design?
The aggressive lugs are designed specifically to provide maximum grip and traction on loose, soft, and uneven trail surfaces.
Can I replace the Quicklace system?
Yes, Salomon Quicklace kits are generally replaceable if the original lacing system wears out or snaps.
Are these suitable for road running?
They are designed for trails. Using them extensively on pavement or concrete will cause the soft rubber lugs to wear down very quickly.
Troubleshooting
Quicklace system feels loose during use
Check the lace-locker for small grit or pebbles; clear any debris that prevents the lock from snapping into place fully.
Foot slipping inside the shoe during descents
Re-tighten the Quicklace system and ensure the Sensifit wings are lying flat against the foot; ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking hiking socks.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent traction on loose terrain due to aggressive lugs
- Quicklace system enables rapid adjustments without stopping
- High level of foot security provided by the Sensifit design
- Durable protective caps prevent wear and injury from trail debris
Cons
- Lack of Gore-TEX membrane means they are not waterproof
- Aggressive lug design may feel less comfortable on paved surfaces
- Specific sizing (4.5 UK) might require precise fit testing
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, pull the Quicklace system evenly to ensure tension is distributed across the top of the foot. Once secured, tuck the loose lace into the pocket usually found on the tongue to prevent snagging on branches.
Care Instructions:
- After muddy hikes, allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
- Use a soft brush to remove dried mud from the Contagrip lugs to maintain peak traction.
- Avoid machine washing; instead, wipe the upper materials with a damp cloth if they become soiled.
- If the laces lose their grip over time, inspect the lace-locker for debris that might be preventing a tight seal.
