How Do You Tie Salomon Hiking Boots?

Tying your Salomon hiking boots correctly is essential to ensure they provide you with the greatest level of comfort and support. Salomon boots are designed to be lightweight, yet still provide the necessary protection for your feet on a hike. Tying them correctly will also help to prevent blisters and other foot issues.

When tying a pair of Salomon hiking boots, first make sure that both laces are of equal length. If not, adjust them so that the laces are even on both sides.

Then insert each lace into the eyelets, starting from the bottom and working your way up.

Once you reach the top eyelets, tie an overhand knot in both laces together by crossing one lace over the other. Then tuck both ends of the laces into the loop created by crossing them over each other and pull tight.

Next, create loops with each lace by pulling them through two opposite eyelets that are adjacent to one another. Cross each side of the laces over one another again, creating an X shape. Then, take one side of the lace and pull it through the front loop while taking the other end of the lace and pulling it through behind it.

Finally, tie a double knot at the top of your boots by crossing each side of your lace over one another once more and pulling tight. If you want extra security, you can add a second double knot.

Conclusion:

Tying your Salomon hiking boots correctly is essential for providing yourself with maximum comfort and protection when out on a hike. The process is quite simple; adjust your laces to be even in length, create an overhand knot at the top of your boots, create loops with each lace next to two adjacent eyelets, then pull one side through while taking the other behind it before finally tying a double knot at the top for extra security if desired.
