FAQs
Are Salomon XT-6 trainers waterproof?
The standard XT-6 is constructed with durable, breathable materials designed for trail performance but is not explicitly rated as waterproof.
How should I clean the Contagrip outsole?
Use a soft brush and lukewarm water to remove dirt; avoid harsh chemicals that might degrade the rubber compound.
Can these be used for daily gym workouts?
Yes, their stable chassis makes them suitable for general gym activities, though they are optimized primarily for trail and lifestyle movement.
Does the sizing run true?
Salomon trainers generally follow standard sizing, but it is recommended to reference the size guide to match your UK foot measurements accurately.
What is the purpose of the ACS chassis?
The Agile Chassis System provides stability and motion control, which helps keep the foot aligned during movement on uneven or technical terrain.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose after long use
Ensure the Quicklace toggle is fully engaged and tucked securely into the lace pocket to maintain tension.
Difficulty putting on the shoe
Loosen the Quicklace system completely by pulling the toggle away from the tongue before inserting your foot.
Dirt stuck in the outsole lugs
Use a stiff-bristle brush to dislodge debris after the mud has dried to maintain optimal grip performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Salomon XT-6 trainers perform as expected, keep the following in mind:
- Fit Adjustment: Use the Quicklace system by pulling the toggle to tighten the upper uniformly; tuck the excess lace into the dedicated garage pocket on the tongue to prevent snagging.
- Break-in Period: While the shoe is comfortable out of the box, the supportive chassis may require a few wears to adapt perfectly to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt after trail use with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use lukewarm water and a mild detergent; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can compromise the integrity of the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the rubber and fabrics from degrading over time.
