Is the Salomon XT-4 OG true to size?

Many reviewers find it runs slightly narrow and recommend going half a size up, especially for wide feet. If you're between sizes, sizing up is often advised.

What is the difference between the regular and Gore-Tex versions?

The Gore-Tex version adds a waterproof, breathable membrane for wet conditions, while the regular version uses a more breathable mesh upper without waterproofing.

Can I use the XT-4 OG for hiking?

Yes, it works well for light hikes and mixed terrain thanks to its grippy outsole and durable build. However, the firm cushioning may not suit long, rugged hikes.

Does the XT-4 OG have good arch support?

It has a neutral arch and an Ortholite insole that provides some support, but those needing extra arch support may want to add aftermarket insoles.

How do I clean the Salomon XT-4 OG?

Use a soft brush and mild soap with water to clean the upper, and air dry away from direct heat. The Gore-Tex version should be cleaned with products suitable for waterproof membranes.
