Questions answered
FAQ
What is the Salomon Advanced line?
Salomon Advanced is the brand's fashion-forward sub-label, sold through premium boutiques and designer retailers. It takes Salomon's trail technologies and recontextualizes them with elevated materials and design for the fashion market.
Can you hike in the Tepiaz Advanced?
Yes, it has genuine hiking capability. The water-repellent leather, protective toe cap, and All Terrain Contagrip outsole handle mixed terrain and light weather well. The mid-height offers more ankle support than low-cut Salomon lifestyle shoes.
How does the Tepiaz compare to other Salomon Advanced models?
It's one of the more functional pieces in the Advanced line, with genuine outdoor capability versus purely lifestyle models like the Neuva Advanced. The mid-height and leather construction give it a different character from low-cut trail adaptations.
Is the Tepiaz Advanced waterproof?
The leather upper is water-repellent but not fully waterproof like Gore-Tex models. It handles light rain and wet conditions well but isn't designed for stream crossings or heavy downpours.
