Product Information
Full details
The Salomon XT-6 GTX is a high-performance, trail-tested trainer designed for active adults who need a versatile shoe that transitions seamlessly from rugged outdoor paths to urban environments. Its key benefit is a combination of waterproof GORE-TEX protection and responsive stability, though users should note that the technical construction offers a firmer ride compared to traditional plush running shoes.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Salomon XT-6 series generally fits true to size, but the performance fit is intended to be snug and secure; consider trying them on with your preferred athletic socks.
Can I use these for road running?
Yes, they are versatile enough for road running, though the outsole is specifically optimized for trail traction.
How do I replace the laces if they break?
The Quicklace system is designed to be durable, but replacement kits are available through Salomon and can be threaded through the existing eyelets.
Do I need to treat the exterior with a water-repellent spray?
The GORE-TEX membrane provides the primary waterproof barrier, but you may use DWR-safe sprays if you notice the outer fabric absorbing water over time.
Is the sole removable?
Yes, the molded OrthoLite sockliner is removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Quicklace feels too loose or too tight
Adjust the lace toggle manually to distribute pressure evenly across the eyelets before securing it in the lock position.
Accumulated dirt in the outsole
Use a stiff brush to clear debris from the Contagrip lugs to restore traction and prevent weight buildup.
Moisture inside the shoe despite GORE-TEX
Ensure that water is not entering through the collar; consider wearing appropriate weather-resistant gaiters for extreme conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the perfect fit, utilize the Quicklace system by pulling the toggle upward and sliding it until the tension is even across the top of the foot. Tuck the excess lace into the dedicated lace pocket located on the tongue to prevent snagging. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and rinse with lukewarm water. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as these can damage the GORE-TEX membrane and the adhesive bonds. Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent warping or material degradation.
