FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The XT-6 SHADOW is designed for breathability and performance; while they can handle light moisture, they are not fully waterproof.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap to spot clean the mesh. Do not put these trainers in the washing machine.
Are they true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to size. If you prefer a looser fit for thick socks, you may consider a half-size up.
Can I use these for marathon running?
While they share lineage with racing shoes, they are primarily lifestyle and casual-performance sneakers. Dedicated marathon runners should look at Salomon's specialized road or trail racing series.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
The trainers feature a molded, supportive midsole that provides moderate arch support suitable for most foot types.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose during long walks
Ensure the Quicklace system is fully tucked into the designated lace garage to prevent snagging and loosening.
Minor debris buildup in the tread
Use a stiff-bristled brush to dislodge mud or small rocks from the outsole grooves after use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your XT-6 SHADOW trainers stay in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure you wear the socks you intend to use with the shoes before assessing the fit for your specific UK size.
- Cleaning: Hand wash using a soft brush and mild, non-detergent soap. Avoid submerging the shoes fully in water.
- Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can degrade the synthetic materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew or material breakdown.
