FAQs
Are the Salomon XT-6 suitable for hiking?
Yes, the XT-6 is designed with trail-ready technology like Contagrip outsoles and ACS cushioning, making them suitable for moderate hiking and trail running.
How do I adjust the fit of the Quicklace system?
Pull the laces evenly until snug. To tighten further, pull the lace lock. To loosen, lift the lace lock. Tuck excess laces into the garage on the tongue.
Can I machine wash the Salomon XT-6?
It is not recommended to machine wash the XT-6. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The XT-6 features water-resistant materials and a design that sheds some moisture, but they are not fully waterproof. They offer moderate protection against wet conditions.
What is the intended use for the Salomon XT-6?
The XT-6 is designed for a blend of outdoor utility and urban styling, suitable for trail running, hiking, and everyday casual wear.
How do I store my XT-6 trainers when not in use?
Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are clean and dry before storage to maintain their condition.
Troubleshooting
Quicklace system not tightening securely
Ensure the lace lock is fully engaged. Check the lace itself for any fraying or damage that might impede its grip in the lock mechanism.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While Contagrip offers excellent traction, extreme wet conditions can reduce grip. Ensure the outsole is free from debris that might affect performance.
Discomfort after initial wear
The XT-6 may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially and gradually increase wear time as the shoes conform to your feet.
Mesh upper appears dirty
Gently clean the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, a soft brush can be used with caution. Ensure thorough rinsing and air drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Salomon XT-6 comes ready to wear. The Quicklace system is designed for fast, one-pull tightening and loosening. Adjust the fit by pulling the laces evenly until snug against your foot. To secure, tuck the excess lace into the lace garage on the tongue.
Compatibility: This trainer is designed for adult male feet and is suitable for a wide range of foot shapes due to its SensiFIT construction. It is not specifically designed for narrow or wide-fit requirements but generally accommodates average foot widths well.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and mud. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Laces: The Quicklace system does not require special care, but ensure the lace garage closure is secure to prevent the laces from loosening.
