FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The Salomon XT-6 generally fits true to size, but the technical shape may feel narrower in the midfoot compared to lifestyle-only sneakers.

Can I use these for marathon running?

While originally designed for trail runners, they function well for distance; however, they are categorized as a lifestyle trainer and may not offer the same specific gait-correction features as dedicated modern racing footwear.

How do I replace the laces?

The Quicklace system is integrated into the shoe design. If the lace breaks, it is recommended to visit an authorized repair center or contact Salomon support for replacement guidance.

Are these waterproof?

The standard XT-6 model is designed for breathability. While the materials are durable, they are not waterproof.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the OrthoLite sockliner is removable if you need to air it out or replace it with custom orthotics.

Troubleshooting

Quicklace system feels difficult to tighten

Ensure the lace path is free of debris or grit, and check that the lace is not twisted within the eyelets.

Foot feels unstable inside the shoe

Re-adjust the Quicklace system to ensure even tension across the entire lacing zone, and ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks.

Outsole losing traction

Clean the lugs thoroughly with a stiff-bristle brush to remove impacted dirt or small rocks that prevent the rubber from contacting the ground.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Proven durability inherited from elite trail-running heritage
  • Excellent energy return and impact absorption
  • Reliable, high-grip traction on varied surfaces
  • Fast and convenient lacing system for a consistent fit

Cons

  • May require a short break-in period to reach peak comfort
  • Technical aesthetic may not suit formal environments
  • Limited water resistance compared to Gore-Tex models

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the most out of your Salomon XT-6, start by pulling the Quicklace toggle until the fit feels secure across the instep without cutting off circulation. Tuck the excess lace into the dedicated storage pocket on the tongue for a clean look and to prevent snagging.

Care Instructions:

  1. Remove loose dirt or mud with a soft brush after every outing.
  2. Clean the outsoles using a damp cloth and mild soap if they become caked with debris.
  3. Remove the OrthoLite sockliner occasionally to allow it to air dry thoroughly.
  4. Never machine wash or machine dry your trainers, as high heat can degrade the adhesives and foam properties.
  5. Air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators.
