FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The standard XT-6 is designed for breathability and is not waterproof, though the materials are durable enough to handle occasional light exposure to moisture.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
While originally designed for trail runners, modern users primarily wear the XT-6 as a lifestyle sneaker, though they retain the technical performance features for running.
How should I store the extra lace length?
The XT-6 features a lace pocket located on the top of the tongue, specifically designed to stow the excess Quicklace cord.
Do these run true to size?
The XT-6 generally fits true to size, but the performance-oriented fit may feel more snug than standard casual sneakers. We recommend trying them on with your preferred sock thickness.
How long does the OrthoLite sockliner last?
OrthoLite insoles are designed for long-term wear and retain their cushioning properties significantly longer than standard foam liners.
Troubleshooting
Quicklace feels difficult to adjust
Ensure the lace is free from debris inside the toggle housing and that the lace is evenly distributed through the eyelets.
Shoe feels too tight over the arch
Loosen the Quicklace system by pulling the base of the laces near the toe box to redistribute tension before re-tightening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Salomon XT-6 stays in peak condition, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Fitting: Utilize the Quicklace system to achieve a snug fit, but avoid overtightening to prevent pressure points across the bridge of your foot.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Do not submerge in water or use a washing machine, as this can degrade the specialized materials.
- Drying: Always air-dry at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the midsole foam to warp or the adhesives to weaken.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the foam and fabric components.
