FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The XT-Whisper features a genderless design with a Sensifit application, which aims for an adaptive fit. However, individuals with very wide feet may find them snug. It is recommended to try them on if possible or consult sizing guides.

How do I adjust the Quicklace system?

Pull the laces upwards to tighten and push the toggle down towards the tongue to loosen. The excess lace can be tucked into the lace garage on the tongue.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand wash with mild soap and water, and air dry.

What is the main benefit of the Contagrip outsole?

The Contagrip outsole is engineered to provide exceptional durability and traction on a wide variety of surfaces, ensuring confident grip in diverse conditions.

What does 'ACS' stand for in the support system?

ACS stands for Agile Chassis System. It is designed to provide stability and control on challenging terrain.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The XT-Whisper trainers are not fully waterproof. They feature breathable mesh uppers designed for ventilation, making them suitable for dry to moderately wet conditions but not for submersion or heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Ensure the laces are free of debris. Check that the toggle mechanism is clean and functioning smoothly. If persistent, consult the Salomon website for specific Quicklace care.

Slipping or poor traction.

Clean the Contagrip outsole of mud or debris, as this can affect grip. Ensure the shoes are appropriate for the surface conditions; they are designed for varied terrain but not extreme conditions.
