Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Getting started with your Salomon XT-6 is straightforward. The Quicklace™ Lacing System allows for fast and easy adjustment:
- Slide: Simply slide the plastic toggle down the laces towards the tongue of the shoe.
- Pull: Pull the excess lace through the toggle until the desired snugness is achieved.
- Secure: Tuck the excess lace and toggle into the lace pocket on the tongue to keep it tidy and prevent snagging.
Ensure a comfortable, secure fit that allows for natural foot movement without excessive pressure points.

Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your XT-6 shoes:
- Cleaning: After use, especially in muddy conditions, gently brush off loose dirt. You can clean the synthetic and textile upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Insole Care: The OrthoLite® insoles can typically be removed and hand-washed separately if needed. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
- Refer to Product Label: Always check the specific care instructions on the product label for the most accurate guidelines.
