FAQs
How do I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals. Use a leather cleaner and conditioner for best results.
Are these shoes suitable for all types of hiking?
They are ideal for various terrains but may not be the best choice for technical mountaineering. They excel on trails and moderate off-trail hiking.
How often should I treat the leather with a protectant?
Apply a leather protectant every few months, or more frequently if you hike in wet conditions often.
What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?
Use moisture-wicking hiking socks to enhance comfort and reduce the risk of blisters.
Can I use these shoes in winter?
Yes, but ensure your socks and the shoes can handle the cold and potential snow. Consider winter-specific hiking boots for extreme cold.
How long will the GORE-TEX membrane remain waterproof?
With proper care, the GORE-TEX membrane can last for many seasons. However, its effectiveness may decrease over time with wear and tear.
What is the warranty on these shoes?
Please refer to the Salomon warranty policy for specific details.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking into the shoe.
Check the GORE-TEX membrane for any damage. Ensure the laces are properly tied to prevent water from entering at the top. Consider applying a waterproofing treatment to the leather.
The shoes feel uncomfortable after a long hike.
Ensure the shoes fit properly and are the correct size. Try using different socks or insoles for better comfort. Allow your feet to rest and recover after long hikes.
