Salomon X ULTRA 360 LEATHER Gore-tex Waterproof Trail running Shoes - UK 6.5

While the Gore-tex provides waterproofing, these shoes are not insulated for extreme cold. They are best suited for three-season use or milder winter conditions.

Wear them around the house for short periods, gradually increasing the duration. Genuine leather requires a break-in period to mold to your foot shape for optimal comfort.

Yes, replacement Quicklace systems are available from Salomon or specialized outdoor retailers. They typically come with instructions for installation.

Clean shoes after each significant use. Treat the leather with a conditioner every few months, or more often if frequently exposed to wet conditions, to maintain its condition.

Contagrip provides aggressive traction with durable rubber compounds and a specific lug pattern designed to grip effectively on a wide variety of surfaces, from mud and rock to wet pavement.

The Sensifit system allows for adjustability, but the general fit tends to be medium. It is recommended to try them on if possible, especially if you have notably wide feet.

Adjust the Quicklace system. Pull laces tighter for a more secure fit or loosen them for more comfort. Ensure the "lace pocket" is used to tuck away excess lace.

Check the integrity of the Gore-tex membrane and seams. Ensure the tongue is properly positioned to prevent water entry. Reapply waterproofing treatment to the leather exterior if necessary.

Clean the outsole lugs of mud or debris. The Contagrip is designed for traction, but accumulated dirt can hinder performance. Inspect lugs for excessive wear.

Apply a leather conditioner or waterproofing treatment designed for hiking boots to restore moisture and flexibility to the leather.
