FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The trainers feature a standard fit. While the QuickLACE system allows for some adjustability, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug. It's recommended to try them on if possible.

Can I use these for hiking?

The Salomon Aero Flw Gvl trainers are designed for running on mixed terrain, including light trails. For dedicated hiking with significant elevation changes or rough terrain, footwear with more robust ankle support and aggressive traction might be more appropriate.

How do I clean the leather upper?

For the leather components, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by a conditioning product if needed. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the main benefit of the Energy Foam midsole?

The Energy Foam midsole is engineered to provide a balance of shock absorption for comfort and energy return for a more dynamic and responsive running experience.

How durable is the outsole grip?

The outsole is designed for durability and adaptable grip across various surfaces. Regular cleaning and avoiding excessive wear on abrasive surfaces will help maintain its effectiveness.

Is the QuickLACE system replaceable?

Yes, the QuickLACE system and its components are typically replaceable. You can find replacement kits online or through authorized Salomon retailers if the original system becomes worn or damaged.

Troubleshooting

Laces not staying tight

Ensure the QuickLACE toggle is fully engaged and the excess lace is securely tucked into the lace pocket. If the toggle seems loose, check for any damage or wear on the lacing system.

Discomfort or rubbing

Verify the fit is correct. Ensure the laces are evenly tightened and the heel is locked down. Try wearing different athletic socks, as sock thickness can affect fit and comfort.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

The outsole is designed for adaptability, but performance on very wet, smooth surfaces may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is clean of mud or debris, as this can impact grip.

Squeaking noise during stride

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the midsole. Try removing the insole, cleaning both surfaces, and reinserting it. Ensure the insole is fully seated.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile grip suitable for multiple surfaces.
  • Comfortable cushioning for long-distance running.
  • Quick and easy lacing system for on-the-go adjustments.
  • Lightweight construction reduces running fatigue.
  • Reactive bounce enhances running efficiency.

Cons

  • Grip may not be aggressive enough for extremely muddy or technical trails.
  • Leather material might require specific care in wet conditions.
  • Primarily designed for running, may not offer the ankle support of dedicated hiking boots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure a comfortable fit by adjusting the QuickLACE system. Pull the laces to tighten and use the small toggle to secure them at the desired tension. Tuck the excess lace into the pocket on the tongue to prevent it from snagging.

Compatibility: The Salomon Aero Flw Gvl trainers are designed for adult male runners. They are compatible with standard athletic socks. The adaptable grip is suited for asphalt, gravel paths, and light to moderate trails. Avoid use on extremely slippery or highly technical terrain where specialized footwear might be required.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and construction.
  2. Drying: Air dry the trainers naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
