FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The leather offers water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. They are designed to handle wet conditions and splashes, but prolonged submersion may lead to water ingress.

What is the intended use for the Salomon XT-6 Leather?

These shoes are ideal for trail running and hiking on moderate to technical terrain. They also serve well for general outdoor activities and casual wear.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt, then wipe with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher stains, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Always allow to air dry.

What does the 'ACS' in the Agile Chassis System mean?

ACS stands for Agile Chassis System, which is Salomon's technology designed to provide stability and control for your foot during movement on varied terrain.

Can I replace the Quicklace system if it breaks?

Yes, replacement Quicklace™ laces and mechanisms are available from Salomon or authorized retailers.

What is the main difference between this leather version and the standard XT-6?

The primary difference is the upper material. The leather version offers enhanced durability and a more premium aesthetic, while the standard version often uses synthetic materials for lighter weight and faster drying.

Troubleshooting

Laces won't tighten properly.

Ensure the Quicklace™ mechanism is clean and free of debris. Check that the laces are correctly threaded through the mechanism.

Slight discomfort during initial wear.

This is common with leather footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Reduced traction on wet surfaces.

Ensure the Contagrip® outsole is clean and free from mud or debris that could impair grip. For extremely slick conditions, proceed with caution.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction on diverse terrains.
  • Durable construction suitable for rugged use.
  • Comfortable cushioning for extended wear.
  • Secure and adjustable fit with Quicklace system.
  • Protective features for off-road adventures.

Cons

  • Leather may require a break-in period.
  • May be warmer than synthetic alternatives in hot weather.
  • The design is inspired by trail running, not solely for heavy backpacking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes are ready to wear out of the box. Adjust the Quicklace™ system for a snug, comfortable fit. Ensure the laces are tucked into the lace pocket to prevent snagging.

Compatibility: Designed for trail running and hiking activities. They are suitable for adult unisex users of any fitness level for recreational outdoor pursuits.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush. Wipe the leather with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
  3. Maintenance: Periodically check the outsole for wear and tear. Condition the leather with an appropriate leather care product to maintain its suppleness and water resistance.
