FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Salomon XT-4 OG Trainers feature a mesh upper designed for breathability, which means they are not fully waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but are not intended for heavy rain or submersion.
How do I adjust the Quicklace system?
Simply pull the laces upwards to tighten the fit. To loosen, press the release button on the lace lock. Excess lace can be stored in the small pocket on the tongue.
What is the drop of the shoe?
The shoe has a standard 6mm drop, which refers to the height difference between the heel and the forefoot.
Can I replace the Ortholite sockliner?
Yes, the Ortholite sockliner is removable and can be replaced if needed, allowing for the use of custom orthotics if desired.
What type of surfaces are these trainers best for?
These trainers are designed for urban use, offering good performance on pavements, roads, park paths, and light gravel. The Contagrip outsole provides reliable traction on a variety of surfaces.
How do I clean the synthetic upper and TPU film?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. A damp cloth with mild soap can be used for stains. Allow to air dry naturally.
Is this shoe suitable for serious trail running?
While inspired by trail performance, the XT-4 OG is redesigned for everyday urban use. For highly technical or extreme trail running, a dedicated Salomon trail running shoe might be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Quicklace system feels too tight or too loose.
Adjust the tension by pulling the lace lock. If it feels too tight, loosen it by pressing the release button. Ensure excess lace is properly stored in the pocket.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces.
Ensure the Contagrip outsole is clean. Grit or mud can reduce its effectiveness. Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Note that performance may vary on extremely slick surfaces.
Discomfort or rubbing during wear.
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Check that the tongue is properly positioned and the Quicklace system is adjusted for a comfortable, secure fit without constriction.
