FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Salomon XT-Evo generally follows standard sizing, though the durable build may feel more snug than thinner fabric trainers.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
While these trainers offer support, they are primarily designed for everyday wear and general fitness. Dedicated long-distance runners may prefer specialized racing models.
How do I clean the black fabric?
Use a soft brush to remove dust and a damp, lint-free cloth to spot-clean any markings. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Are they waterproof?
The XT-Evo is not marketed as waterproof, though the robust construction offers more protection than lightweight mesh alternatives.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if required for additional support.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Adjust the lacing system to distribute pressure more evenly and wear the shoes for short periods to allow the materials to stretch naturally.
Sole grip feels slippery on wet surfaces
Ensure the treads are free of embedded debris or dried mud, which can inhibit the rubber's ability to maintain contact with the ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Salomon XT-Evo trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Fit: When first using the trainers, lace them snugly but avoid overtightening to allow the upper materials to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid submerging them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the structural adhesives.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the materials to stiffen or warp.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup inside the lining.
