FAQs
Is the Salomon XT-4 waterproof?
The leather upper provides some natural resistance to light moisture, but it is not explicitly marketed as waterproof.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No. The leather construction can be permanently damaged by machine washing. Always clean by hand.
Are these suitable for technical rock climbing?
No. The XT-4 is designed for hiking and daily wear, not as a specialized approach or climbing shoe.
Does the leather stretch?
Leather will soften and mold to your foot over time, but it does not stretch significantly in width like fabric uppers.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the provided insoles are removable and compatible with most aftermarket orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull or loses color
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner or neutral cream polish to restore moisture and luster.
Stiff feel during initial wear
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to naturally soften and contour to your foot shape.
Accumulated debris in tread
Use a soft-bristled brush to clear dirt from the outsole lugs to maintain optimal traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Salomon XT-4 shoes, consistent maintenance is required due to the leather construction. Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt after use. For deeper cleaning, utilize a leather-specific cleaner and conditioner to prevent the material from cracking or drying out. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the leather to stiffen.
When sizing, ensure a snug fit that allows for adequate toe room, as leather may not stretch as much as softer synthetics. If you intend to use custom orthotics, the factory insoles are removable to accommodate different arch support needs.
