Ideal for both light trail adventures and daily urban commuting, these shoes offer exceptional stability and long-lasting comfort thanks to their premium leather construction.

FAQs
Is the Salomon XT-6 waterproof?
The leather construction offers some natural resistance to moisture, but it is not fully waterproof.
Does this shoe provide good arch support?
Yes, the XT-6 series is engineered with a stable chassis that offers substantial support for the arch and heel.
How should I clean the Grey leather exterior?
Gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and let them air dry naturally away from direct sunlight or heat.
Can I wear these for serious technical hiking?
While capable of light trails, the XT-6 is best suited for urban use and light outdoor activities; for intensive mountain hiking, a dedicated boot may be more appropriate.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Most users find them to be true to size, but the technical structure may feel tighter than casual trainers; size up by a half size if you prefer a roomier fit.
Troubleshooting
The fit feels too tight around the midfoot.
Adjust the lacing system to distribute tension more evenly across the tongue and upper before fully tightening.
Leather surface shows signs of scuffing.
Use a specialized leather conditioning balm to nourish the material and buff out minor surface abrasions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your XT-6 sneakers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines. When first wearing your shoes, we recommend using them for short periods to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot shape. Regarding compatibility, these shoes are designed with a technical fit; if you intend to wear thick wool hiking socks, you may find the standard sizing snug. To clean the leather, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried dirt or debris. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with a mild leather-safe cleaner, ensuring you air-dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking or deforming.
