FAQs
What is the main advantage of the Quicklace system?
The Quicklace system allows for quick, one-pull tightening and loosening of the laces, providing a secure and customized fit with minimal effort.
Are these trainers suitable for long-distance hiking?
The Salomon XT-Whisper Trainers are best suited for everyday wear and light outdoor activities. For very demanding or long-distance hiking, dedicated hiking boots with more robust support and protection are recommended.
How do I clean the OrthoLite® sockliner?
You can remove the OrthoLite® sockliner and clean it separately with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is made of mesh, which promotes breathability and keeps your feet cool.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the OrthoLite® sockliner is removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if needed.
What does 'Sensifit™' refer to?
Sensifit™ refers to the unique wavy application on the upper designed to cradle the foot, offering a precise and secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Laces not tightening properly
Ensure the Quicklace™ toggle is fully engaged and the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. Check for any debris that might be obstructing the mechanism.
Discomfort after initial wear
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. If discomfort persists, check the lacing tension and ensure the OrthoLite® sockliner is correctly positioned.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
While the Contagrip® outsole offers good grip, always exercise caution on extremely slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean from mud or debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Quicklace™ system requires no complex setup. Simply pull the laces to tighten and push the toggle to loosen. Ensure the lace lock is positioned comfortably to avoid pressure points.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult foot sizes. They are compatible with standard athletic socks. While primarily trainers, they can be used for light hiking but may not offer the specialized support of dedicated hiking boots.
Care: To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt from the upper and outsole. For interior cleaning, remove the OrthoLite® sockliner and clean separately. Allow trainers to air dry completely away from direct heat sources. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and construction.
