FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The X ULTRA 360 series offers a standard fit. While the quickLACE system allows for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them less accommodating. Trying them on is recommended.
How durable is the quickLACE system?
The quickLACE system is designed for durability and convenience. However, like any lacing system, proper use and occasional inspection for wear are recommended.
Can I use these shoes for winter hiking?
While the GORE-TEX membrane offers waterproofing and some warmth, these shoes are primarily designed for three-season hiking. For deep snow or extreme cold, consider insulated winter boots.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a finger's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without excessive lift.
What is the primary advantage of the dual-rubber outsole?
The dual-rubber compound is engineered to provide superior traction in both wet and dry conditions, enhancing grip and stability on a variety of surfaces.
How often should I clean my hiking shoes?
It's best to clean your hiking shoes after each significant use, especially if they were exposed to mud or dirt, to maintain their performance and longevity.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping into shoes
Ensure the GORE-TEX membrane is intact and that laces are tightened properly. Check for any damage to the shoe's seams or sole. Clean the shoes to ensure optimal membrane function.
quickLACE system feels loose
Re-tighten the toggle and ensure the knot is secure. If the laces are worn, they may need replacement.
Discomfort or rubbing
Adjust the quickLACE system for a more personalized fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Break in the shoes gradually on shorter walks.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Clean the outsole to remove embedded dirt or debris. The rubber compounds may wear down over extended use, indicating it's time for a new pair.

Compatibility:
Designed for hiking and outdoor activities, these shoes are compatible with standard hiking socks. They are suitable for use with various types of outdoor gear.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose dirt with a brush. For deeper cleaning, use lukewarm water and a mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Waterproofing: Periodically check the GORE-TEX membrane's effectiveness. Clean the shoes regularly to maintain breathability and waterproofing. Consider using a specialized leather protector spray if the leather appears dry, following product instructions.
