Salomon Quest Element Gore-Tex - Ebony - UK 8

The Quest Element features a standard fit. For wide feet, it's recommended to try them on in person or consult sizing charts, as individual fit can vary.

Use a suede brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt. For tougher stains, a specialized nubuck cleaner can be used, followed by air drying.

The shoes have a drop of 10mm.

Each shoe weighs approximately 505 grams.

Yes, the Ortholite® sockliner is removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if needed, provided they are of a similar thickness.

The GORE-TEX® membrane provides waterproofing, but the shoe is not insulated for extreme cold. They are suitable for cold, wet conditions but may require additional thermal socks for very low temperatures.

Please refer to the retailer or Salomon's official website for specific warranty information, as it can vary by region and purchase date.

Ensure the tongue gussets are properly sealed and the laces are tied tightly. Check for any damage to the membrane. Moisture can also come from sweat if the shoe is not breathable enough for the conditions; consider wearing moisture-wicking socks.

Try a double knot, or consider replacing the laces with a more secure, textured pair designed for hiking boots.

While the Mud Contagrip® offers good traction, extreme conditions may still pose challenges. Ensure you are walking mindfully and distributing your weight appropriately. Clean the outsole regularly to remove packed mud.

Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly, not too tight around the ankle. The shoes may require a break-in period; wear them for shorter walks initially to allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot shape.
