FAQs
How do I adjust the fit of the Salomon XT-6?
The QUICKLACE system allows for quick adjustments. Pull the laces upwards to tighten the shoe for a secure fit, and pull the small tab near the laces to loosen.
What type of terrain is this shoe best suited for?
The XT-6 Advanced Hiking shoe is designed for varied outdoor terrains, including trails, rocky paths, and uneven surfaces, thanks to its CONTAGRIP sole and ACS CHASSIS system.
How do I clean my Salomon XT-6 shoes?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to clean the exterior. Avoid detergents or abrasive cleaners. Allow them to air dry naturally.
Can I replace the QUICKLACE system if it breaks?

Are these shoes waterproof?

What is the primary benefit of the ACS CHASSIS system?
The ACS CHASSIS system provides enhanced stability and agility by offering dual shock absorption and a robust structure, allowing for more controlled movement.
Troubleshooting
Laces not tightening securely
Ensure the toggle is fully engaged. If the lace material is worn, consider replacing the QUICKLACE system.
Slipping on wet surfaces
Clean the CONTAGRIP sole to remove any mud or debris that may impede traction. For extremely slick conditions, proceed with caution.
Discomfort or pressure points
Adjust the QUICKLACE tension. Ensure the SENSIFIT+ENDOFIT is not too tight. Wear with appropriate hiking socks and break in the shoes on shorter walks before extended use.
