Product Information
Full details
The Salomon XT-Whisper trainers are designed for active adults who need a versatile shoe that transitions seamlessly from rugged trails to urban environments. Featuring advanced cushioning technology and a durable, high-traction design, they provide exceptional support for daily wear. One notable caveat is that while they excel in various conditions, they are optimized for performance-focused versatility rather than specialized high-intensity mountain climbing.

FAQs
Are the Salomon XT-Whisper trainers waterproof?
The trainers feature a breathable mesh upper designed for airflow, which means they are not fully waterproof and are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions.
How should I clean the shoes?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains. Always air dry them away from direct heat.
Can these be used for heavy-duty hiking?
They are designed for versatile use including light trails, but for extreme, technical, or multi-day alpine trekking, dedicated mountain boots are recommended.
What is the benefit of the OrthoLite sockliner?
The OrthoLite sockliner provides superior cushioning, high breathability, and moisture-wicking properties, which help keep your feet dry and odor-free.
How does the sizing run?
Salomon trainers generally follow standard athletic sizing, but it is always recommended to check your measurement against a size chart, especially if you plan to wear thick hiking socks.
What is the purpose of the QuickLACE system?
The QuickLACE system provides a secure, consistent fit that is easier to adjust than traditional laces and eliminates the risk of laces coming undone while walking.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose or slip during activity
Ensure the QuickLACE toggle is fully engaged and the locking mechanism is clean of grit or mud.
Difficulty putting on the shoe due to tight fit
Fully extend the lace system before inserting your foot to maximize the opening width.
Accumulated dirt in the outsole tread
Use a stiff-bristled brush to dislodge dried mud or debris from the contaGRIP lugs after your outing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Salomon XT-Whisper trainers last, proper care is essential. When first putting them on, use the QuickLACE toggle to find your ideal tension; ensure the lace excess is tucked securely into the lace pocket often found on the tongue to prevent snagging.
For cleaning, avoid submerging them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the specialized foams. Instead, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the mesh using a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry them in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the synthetic overlays and foam midsoles.
