Product Information

Full details

The SALOMON ACS PRO Sneakers are designed for individuals seeking a blend of heritage trail design with modern performance technology. These sneakers excel in providing stability, comfort, and exceptional grip across varied terrains, making them ideal for light trail exploration, urban adventures, and everyday wear where technical aesthetics are appreciated. While their 'gorpcore' style is a key appeal, their technical features mean they are built for function first, potentially making them less suitable for purely formal or minimalist occasions.

FAQs

Are these sneakers waterproof?

The Synthetic Uppers provide good resistance to splashes and light rain, offering some protection. However, these sneakers are not designed to be fully waterproof. For heavy rain or submersion, additional waterproof protection would be needed.

How do I know my size?

Salomon sizing is generally consistent, but it's always recommended to measure your foot and compare it to a Salomon specific sizing chart. These particular sneakers are UK size 4.

Can I replace the Quicklace system?

Yes, replacement Quicklace kits are typically available from Salomon. Follow the instructions provided with the replacement kit for proper installation.

What is the benefit of the Molded OrthoLite Sockliner?

The Molded OrthoLite Sockliner provides superior cushioning, breathability, and moisture management. It conforms to your foot for personalized comfort and helps keep your feet cooler and drier during activity.

Are these suitable for running?

While the ACS PRO sneakers incorporate trail-running technology, they are generally optimized for stability, comfort, and grip during light hiking, walking, and urban exploration rather than high-performance running. For dedicated running, Salomon offers other models specifically designed for that purpose.

Troubleshooting

Quicklace system feels too tight or too loose.

To adjust, press the button on the Quicklace clip and slide it up or down the laces until the desired tension is achieved. Ensure even distribution of tension across your foot for comfort.

Foot slipping inside the shoe.

Ensure the Quicklace system is tightened securely. If the issue persists, consider trying thicker socks or insoles to improve the fit. Verify you have the correct size for your foot.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the Molded OrthoLite Sockliner, cleaning both the insole and the shoe's interior, and reinserting it. If the issue persists, a light dusting of talcum powder under the insole can help.

Decreased grip on specific terrain.

Ensure the All Terrain Contagrip outsole is clean and free of embedded debris (mud, small stones) that can reduce traction. While versatile, no outsole provides universal grip on all extreme surfaces.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Grip: All Terrain Contagrip ensures reliable traction on diverse surfaces.
  • Quick and Secure Fit: The Quicklace system allows for fast and precise adjustments.
  • Enhanced Stability: Agile Chassis System provides robust support and comfort, especially on uneven ground.
  • Durable Construction: Synthetic uppers and quality materials offer longevity and protection.
  • Modern Aesthetic: Blends trail functionality with a sought-after 'gorpcore' streetwear look.
  • All-day Comfort: Molded OrthoLite sockliner offers sustained cushioning and breathability.

Cons

  • Specific Style: The technical aesthetic might not suit all wardrobes or preferences.
  • Lacing System Maintenance: Quicklace system, while convenient, can sometimes require specific care if debris gets caught.
  • Ventilation: Synthetic uppers might offer less breathability compared to mesh-heavy alternatives in very hot conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Lacing: The Quicklace system is straightforward. Simply pull the loop to tighten. To loosen, press the button on the Quicklace clip and pull the clip away from the shoe. Ensure even tension across the foot for optimal comfort and security.
  2. Initial Fit: Wear the sneakers with your preferred hiking or athletic socks. Walk around to assess the fit. Your toes should not touch the front, and your heel should feel secure without excessive slipping.

Compatibility

  • Activities: Ideal for light hiking, trail walking, urban exploration, casual wear, and travel.
  • Terrain: Performs well on dry, wet, hard, and loose surfaces thanks to the All Terrain Contagrip outsole.
  • Socks: Compatible with various athletic and hiking socks, depending on preference and weather conditions.

Care

  1. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For stubborn dirt, wipe synthetic uppers with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure shoes are clean and dry before storing to prevent mildew or odor.
  4. Quicklace Maintenance: Periodically check the Quicklace system for any debris. If the clip mechanism feels stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied (avoid oil-based products).
