SALOMON XT-6 Gore-Tex - Black - UK 8.5

Yes, these trainers are equipped with a GORE-TEX and ePE membrane, providing excellent waterproof protection to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.

The Quicklace system features a single pull-cord that allows for fast, one-hand tightening and loosening. You simply pull the cord to tighten and secure it in the lace pocket, or pinch the stopper to release and loosen.

The XT-6 GORE-TEX is highly versatile, designed for both city adventures and rugged outdoor terrain. Its downhill chassis and lug geometry provide excellent grip on varied surfaces, including trails and uneven ground.

It is recommended to brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth with lukewarm water. Do not machine wash. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.

This specialized design provides enhanced stability and exceptional grip, particularly on descents. The unique lug pattern ensures confidence and precision on challenging or slippery downhill sections.

While designed with technical performance in mind, their durable construction and comfortable cushioning make them suitable for daily wear. Their distinctive style also makes them a popular choice for urban casual outfits.

Adjust the Quicklace system: Pull the cord firmly to tighten, or pinch the lace locker and pull the laces outwards to loosen. Ensure the cord is straight and free of twists.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the Quicklace tension; sometimes, a slight loosening or tightening can alleviate pressure. Wear appropriate socks for your activity.

Clean the outer fabric thoroughly to remove dirt and debris that might be clogging the GORE-TEX membrane. If water no longer beads on the surface, consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment specifically designed for GORE-TEX fabrics. Inspect for any physical damage to the membrane.

Check the outsole for excessive dirt or mud buildup and clean thoroughly. Inspect the lug geometry for signs of wear; if lugs are significantly worn down, grip will be reduced. Ensure you are wearing the appropriate shoes for the specific terrain.

Ensure shoes are fully aired out and dry after each use. Remove insoles occasionally to air them separately. Use an odor-absorbing product or shoe spray designed for footwear. Avoid storing shoes in damp or confined spaces.
