FAQs

Are the Salomon XT-6 suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the XT-6 is designed for both performance and style, making it a popular choice for comfortable and durable everyday wear in urban environments.

How do I clean the Quicklace™ system?

The Quicklace™ system can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Ensure no debris gets stuck in the toggle mechanism.

What type of terrain is the Contagrip® outsole best for?

The Contagrip® outsole is engineered for exceptional traction on a wide variety of surfaces, including hard, soft, wet, and dry ground.

Can I wear these shoes for hiking?

Absolutely. The XT-6's stability, cushioning, and robust outsole make it well-suited for hiking activities.

What is the main difference between the XT-6 and other running shoes?

The XT-6 is distinguished by its unique Quicklace™ system, the Agile Chassis System for enhanced stability, and its iconic design that bridges trail performance with modern streetwear aesthetics.

How durable is the mesh upper?

The mesh upper is designed to be durable with protective overlays, offering resistance to abrasion and wear from trail conditions.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel too tight or loose

Adjust the Quicklace™ toggle. Pull up to tighten, press the toggle down to loosen. Ensure the excess lace is properly stored in the lace garage.

Reduced traction on wet surfaces

Ensure the Contagrip® outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. For very slick surfaces, exercise caution as with any footwear.

Discomfort during initial wear

Break in the shoes gradually with shorter wear periods. The materials will adapt to your foot shape over time.

Mesh appears dirty or stained

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Salomon XT-6 features a Quicklace™ system for fast, secure fastening. To use, pull the laces tight, tuck the excess lace into the lace garage on the tongue, and secure the toggle. Compatibility is high; these shoes are designed to be worn right out of the box.

Care: To maintain the XT-6's performance and longevity:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth dampened with water to gently clean the mesh and overlays. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap can be used sparingly.
  3. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
