Full details

FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

Yes, this version includes a GORE-TEX membrane that provides a waterproof barrier against rain and wet terrain.

Can I replace the laces?

The Quicklace system is proprietary; while you can replace them with official Salomon spare kits, standard round laces are not recommended.

Are these suitable for heavy hiking?

They are ideal for light to moderate trails and urban environments, though technical mountain climbing may require a stiffer boot.

How do I clean the exterior?

Use a soft brush to remove dried mud and a damp cloth with mild soap; do not submerge or use a washing machine.

What is the best way to store them?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the durability of the synthetic upper materials.

Troubleshooting

Quicklace system feels too loose

Ensure the lace locker is fully engaged and check that the lace ends are tucked into the tongue pocket properly.

Interior feels damp despite GORE-TEX

This is often due to moisture entering from the top collar or perspiration; ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks.

Difficulty adjusting fit

Loosen the laces fully by pressing the toggle button before sliding the shoe on to prevent tension buildup in the SensiFit system.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent weather protection with integrated GORE-TEX
  • Easy and quick lacing adjustment system
  • Superior underfoot comfort for long days
  • Versatile design suitable for trails and city streets

Cons

  • Not intended for high-speed technical trail racing
  • Heritage aesthetic may not suit all athletic styles
  • Quicklace system requires a learning curve for initial adjustment

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, pull the Quicklace system evenly to ensure the SensiFit overlays sit snugly against your midfoot. Ensure the lace locker is pushed fully down after tightening to prevent slipping. For care, avoid machine washing; instead, use a soft brush and mild soap to remove surface dirt. If the shoes become soaked, remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture, letting them air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the GORE-TEX membrane integrity.
