FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX membrane that provides a waterproof barrier.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The X Ultra 360 has a standard performance fit; however, due to the leather material, it may feel snug initially until it conforms to your foot shape.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the leather in water for long periods.
Can I use these for trail running?
While they provide great stability, they are engineered specifically for hiking and may feel heavier and stiffer than dedicated trail running shoes.
Does the Contagrip outsole work on ice?
Contagrip is designed for wet and loose terrain, but it is not a substitute for micro-spikes or crampons on solid ice.
How long should they last?
Longevity depends on terrain and frequency of use, but with proper maintenance, they are designed for long-term trail durability.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points during break-in
Adjust the lacing tension throughout the midfoot and ensure you are using proper hiking socks to reduce friction.
Water entering the shoe
Ensure the shoe is not submerged above the tongue gusset and check the upper for any debris that might have compromised the seal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes last, avoid wearing them as casual streetwear on pavement for long periods, as this will prematurely wear down the soft lugs of the outsole.
- Break-in: Wear them around the house or on short, flat walks before committing to a multi-day hike to allow the leather to soften.
- Cleaning: After muddy hikes, rinse with lukewarm water. Do not use harsh detergents.
- Drying: Air dry naturally. Never place them near direct heat sources like radiators or campfires, as this can crack the leather and damage the GORE-TEX lining.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
