FAQs
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature Gore-Tex technology, which provides a highly effective waterproof and breathable barrier.
Can I use these for marathon running?
While durable and supportive, they are primarily designed for versatility, hiking, and lifestyle use rather than high-mileage road running.
Do these fit true to size?
Salomon trainers generally follow standard sizing, but it is recommended to reference the size guide to match your specific UK measurements.
How do I clean the Gore-Tex membrane?
Simply clean the exterior with a damp brush. Avoid harsh detergents or bleaching agents that can compromise the waterproof coating.
Are these suitable for winter wear?
Yes, their water resistance and stable grip make them suitable for wet and cool conditions, though they are not insulated for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff initially
Wear them for short periods on flat ground to break in the chassis before taking them on long or difficult hikes.
Moisture buildup inside during hot weather
While Gore-Tex is breathable, ensure you are wearing technical moisture-wicking socks to help manage internal humidity.
Outer fabric looks dull or dirty
Wipe with a damp cloth after each use to prevent dirt from setting into the fabric fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Salomon XT-4 Og GTX Trainers maintain their performance and longevity, follow these care guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the size allows for a thumb's width of space at the front to prevent toe compression during descents.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. For deep cleaning, use lukewarm water and a mild soap solution. Never machine wash or tumble dry.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can degrade the adhesive and Gore-Tex membrane.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mold growth on the fabric uppers.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the outsole for debris lodged in the lugs to maintain maximum traction.
