FAQs

Are the Salomon XT-Whisper trainers suitable for hiking?

Yes, the XT-Whisper trainers are well-suited for hiking due to their durable construction, excellent traction from the Contagrip outsole, and supportive AgileCHASSIS system.

How do I clean the anti-debris mesh?

You can clean the mesh by gently brushing off dry dirt or using a damp cloth with mild soap and cold water. Avoid high-pressure washing or harsh chemicals.

What is the main advantage of the Quicklace system?

The main advantage of the Quicklace system is its speed and ease of use, allowing for one-pull tightening and loosening for a secure fit on the go.

Can these trainers be used for everyday wear?

Yes, while designed for performance, their comfort and style make them suitable for casual everyday wear, especially for those who appreciate athletic footwear.

What type of terrain is the Contagrip outsole best for?

The Contagrip outsole with Chevron lugs and Mud contaGRIP is specifically designed for traction on soft, loose, or uneven surfaces, including mud and wet conditions.

Is the unisex sizing the same for men and women?

Unisex sizing generally follows men's sizing conventions. It's advisable to consult a size chart and potentially try them on or measure your feet to ensure the best fit, as individual foot shapes vary.

How do I store the trainers when not in use?

Store the 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 feels too tight or too loose.

Adjust the toggle position. For tighter fit, pull the toggle up further. For a looser fit, press the release on the toggle. Ensure the excess lace is properly stored in the lace pocket to maintain the adjustment.

Debris entering the shoe.

Ensure the Quicklace system is tightened securely, and that the tongue is properly positioned. The anti-debris mesh is designed to minimize entry, but very fine particles may still pass.

Reduced grip on surfaces.

Inspect the outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the lugs thoroughly. If significant wear is present, consider replacement of the shoes.

Discomfort after extended wear.

Ensure the correct size has been selected and the Quicklace system is adjusted for a comfortable, non-restrictive fit. Check if the OrthoLite sockliner is properly seated.

  • Excellent traction on diverse and challenging terrains.
  • Secure and comfortable fit thanks to Sensifit and Quicklace.
  • Durable construction suitable for rugged use.
  • Breathable mesh helps keep feet cool.
  • Responsive cushioning for all-day comfort.

Cons

  • Quicklace system may require adjustment for a perfect fit for some users.
  • The unisex design might not suit all foot shapes without careful sizing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The XT-Whisper trainers feature the Quicklace system. To initially fit the shoe, loosen the laces using the toggle. Slide your foot in and pull the Quicklace toggle upwards to tighten until a snug and secure fit is achieved. Tuck the excess lace into the lace pocket located on the tongue for a clean finish and to prevent snagging.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult wear and are compatible with a wide range of outdoor activities. They are suitable for trails, mixed terrain, and general athletic pursuits.

Care: To clean your XT-Whisper trainers, it is recommended to use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water to remove dirt and mud. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry. For the OrthoLite sockliner, remove it for separate cleaning with mild soap and water, ensuring it is completely dry before reinserting.
