FAQs
Is the Salomon XT-Quest 2 waterproof?
The shoe features a leather construction which offers natural water resistance, but it is not explicitly rated as fully waterproof or Gore-Tex lined.
How do I determine the right size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing; ensure you have about a thumb's width of space at the front for optimal comfort during descent.
Are these suitable for long-distance trail running?
While highly capable, they are categorized more as an adventure and hiking shoe; they offer more support but less breathability than dedicated racing flats.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the provided insoles are removable and can be swapped for custom orthotics or aftermarket performance insoles.
How should I store the shoes?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out or the adhesive from degrading.
Are these shoes heavy?
Due to the leather construction and stability chassis, they are sturdier and heavier than ultra-lightweight speed shoes.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels too tight or restricted
Adjust the lace tension starting from the bottom eyelets upward; if the problem persists, consider thinner socks.
Leather showing scuffs or marks
Use a standard leather eraser or a soft-bristle brush to buff out minor surface marks; apply leather balm to restore the finish.
Loss of traction on smooth surfaces
Check the outsole lugs for trapped debris or mud; clean the bottom of the shoe with a brush and warm water to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Salomon XT-Quest 2, begin by ensuring you have the correct UK 10.5 fit. If using insoles, remove the factory footbed to prevent overcrowding. For leather maintenance, wipe away surface dirt with a soft brush after each outing. If the shoes become muddy, use a damp cloth and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking. To maintain the leather's appearance, apply a specialized leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and water-resistant.
