FAQs
Is the Salomon XT-6 GTX waterproof?
Yes, it features a GORE-TEX membrane which is specifically designed to be waterproof while maintaining breathability.
Can I use these for running?
While the XT-6 is derived from trail-running heritage, it is primarily marketed as a versatile lifestyle and light hiking shoe.
How do I replace the laces?
The Quicklace system is unique to Salomon. If a lace breaks, you can purchase official Salomon Quicklace replacement kits.
Are they true to size?
Most users find the XT-6 series to be true to size, but the performance fit is snug. If you prefer a looser fit or thick socks, consider sizing up by a half size.
Are these shoes vegan?
The XT-6 GTX uses synthetic materials, but you should check the specific manufacturing tag for details regarding glue and secondary material components.
How should I store them when not in use?
Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the rubber and fabrics from degrading over time.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose over time
Ensure the lace toggle is pushed firmly down and check that the excess lace is properly tucked into the tongue pocket.
Squeaking sound during walking
Remove the OrthoLite sockliner, clean the underside, and ensure the interior of the shoe is completely dry and free of debris.
Feeling too stiff out of the box
Wear the shoes for short intervals of 1-2 hours initially to allow the chassis and upper materials to conform to your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best fit, ensure you adjust the Quicklace system evenly; pulling the lace toggle too tight in one area can create pressure points. Store the excess lace in the dedicated lace pocket located on the tongue to prevent snagging. To clean, remove excess dirt with a soft brush after your excursion. If the shoes are particularly muddy, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the GORE-TEX membrane and adhesive bonds. Always allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
