Product Information
Full details
The Salomon Speedcross Peak trainers are designed for adult female trail runners and hikers who demand rugged performance and superior grip on technical, uneven terrain. These trainers offer an exceptional balance of security and comfort through advanced lacing and protective reinforcements, making them a reliable choice for off-road excursions; however, users should note that the aggressive lug pattern is optimized for dirt and mud, which may cause premature wear if used primarily on hard pavement or concrete.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
This specific variant of the Speedcross Peak focuses on traction and breathability; check the model name for a 'Gore-Tex' designation if you require full waterproofing.
Can I use these for road running?
While you can, the aggressive lugs are designed for soft ground and will wear down rapidly on concrete and asphalt.
How do I store the Quicklace ends?
There is a small 'lace garage' or pocket located on the tongue of the shoe designed specifically to tuck away the excess lace and stopper.
How should I clean the exterior?
Wipe with a damp cloth or use a soft brush to remove dirt. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or machine washing.
Is the fit true to size?
Salomon footwear generally follows standard sizing, though the precise fit of the Sensifit technology might feel snug compared to casual trainers.
Troubleshooting
Quicklace system feels too loose
Ensure the lace lock is fully engaged and the lace is properly routed through the eyelets before pulling it tight.
Build-up of mud in the outsole lugs
Use a stiff brush to clear debris from the lug patterns after the mud has dried, or knock the shoes against each other to dislodge stubborn clumps.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Salomon trainers last through many seasons, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: Ensure the Quicklace is tightened evenly across the bridge of the foot. Use the small storage pocket on the tongue to stow the excess lace to avoid snagging.
- Break-in: While they feature a precise fit, take them on a few shorter walks before heading out on a long, arduous hike to allow the materials to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: After muddy outings, allow the mud to dry, then brush it off with a soft-bristled brush. Hand wash with warm water and mild soap if necessary.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Never place them directly on a radiator or in a dryer, as high heat can damage the adhesives and structural integrity of the shoe materials.
