FAQs

Are these shoes truly waterproof?

Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX ePE membrane that is designed to be fully waterproof while allowing moisture vapor to escape.

Can I use these for marathon running?

The XT-6 is designed for stability and durability on trails, though it can certainly be used for long-distance activities depending on your preference for stability over maximal cushioning.

How should I store them if they are wet?

Remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with newspaper or a dry cloth to absorb moisture from the inside while they air dry.

What is the function of the OrthoLite sockliner?

The OrthoLite sockliner provides anatomical support, moisture management, and additional long-term cushioning.

Does the Quicklace system allow for easy replacement?

Replacement lacing kits are available from Salomon, and the design allows for user installation if the original lace eventually wears out.

Troubleshooting

Laces feeling too loose or tight after use

Re-adjust the Quicklace tension; ensure the lace lock is pushed fully down and seated correctly in the pocket.

Visible dirt accumulation in the mesh

Use a soft brush to gently remove debris; avoid harsh chemicals that might strip the waterproof coating.

Sensation of the shoe feeling too narrow

The XT-6 has a technical, performance-oriented fit. Try adjusting the lacing to loosen the midfoot area or wear thinner, moisture-wicking synthetic socks.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof protection for rainy environments
  • Technical aesthetic suitable for both trail and lifestyle wear
  • Highly durable construction with TPU film overlays
  • Advanced stability features for uneven ground
  • Easy-to-use lacing system for a precision fit

Cons

  • May require a break-in period for optimal comfort
  • Fit tends to be narrow compared to standard sneakers
  • Waterproof membrane may reduce breathability in hot, dry weather

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your XT-6 trainers remain in peak condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit and Adjustment: Utilize the `Quicklace` system to achieve an even pressure across the midfoot. Tuck the excess cord into the dedicated lace pocket on the tongue.
  2. Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft-bristled brush. If the shoes are heavily soiled, wipe them with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using a washing machine, as it can degrade the GORE-TEX membrane and structural adhesives.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators or dryers, which can cause the materials to warp or crack.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
