Hi all
A few weeks ago I bought a pair of Salomon X Ultra Gore-Tex Trail shoes with a quick lace system.
However, after a short time of wearing them (15 minutes) of light walking the laces on both shoes tend to loosen.
I have checked each shoe thoroughly to see if there are any defects, or if the quick lace mechanism is visibly faulty, but I cannot see any issues.
Having searched for answers online and also You Tube to no avail, I emailed Salomon customer care who suggested that I go back to the retailer.
The retailer told me to pop in one evening with the shoes to see what the issue is. They even suggested that one of the reasons was the laces not being installed properly (no idea what they meant by that), or that im not tightening them properly (really?).
Question is; have any of you experienced this similar issue happening?
If so what was the issue/ fix?
Thank you
