To care for the Quest 4 GTX backpacking boots, Salomon recommends removing the insoles after each hike and washing the insoles and shoes with water. To dry the boots, leave the insoles out, and do not place them in the sun or other heat sources. A safe way to speed up the drying process is to put newspaper in the shoes. Make sure to allow enough time for the shoes to fully dry, and try an anti-odor or disinfectant spray if smell becomes an issue.
The Gore-Tex membrane can be maintained with waterproofing sprays or activators. Salomon discourages washing their boots in washing machines as this can cause damage to the shoes.
