FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
Yes, the XT-6 GTX series incorporates GORE-TEX technology, providing a highly effective waterproof and breathable barrier.
Are these suitable for intense running?
While highly capable, they are designed as versatile trainers/lifestyle shoes rather than pure performance racing shoes.
How does the sizing run?
The XT-6 typically fits true to size, but we recommend wearing the thickness of socks you intend to use when trying them on.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and the GORE-TEX membrane. Hand cleaning is recommended.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The XT-6 has a relatively anatomical, secure fit, which may feel snug for those with very wide feet.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing system to distribute pressure more evenly across the bridge of your foot.
External material appears dusty or stained
Use a soft, dry brush to gently remove surface dust; for stains, a mild soap solution on a cloth is usually sufficient.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Salomon XT-6 GTX trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the size allows for a thumb's width of space at the toe when wearing your intended hiking or athletic socks.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after each use. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth if necessary; do not submerge in water or use harsh chemical cleaners.
- Drying: Air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources or radiators, which can degrade the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the upper materials and glues from prematurely aging.
