FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The XT-6 is designed for durability and breathability; while they handle light moisture, they are not classified as fully waterproof.
Can I use these for marathon running?
While the XT-6 is a technical trainer, it is designed for mixed-terrain performance rather than long-distance road running efficiency.
How do I determine the right size?
Salomon sizing is generally consistent; however, due to the precision fit, we recommend selecting your standard UK shoe size.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.
How often should I clean the outsoles?
For optimal grip, clean the outsoles after any session on muddy or loose terrain to prevent dirt buildup in the tread.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points during initial wear
Adjust the lacing system to distribute tension evenly across the midfoot.
Accumulation of debris inside the shoe
Ensure that the collar fits snugly and consider wearing high-quality athletic socks to fill the gap.
Grip feels less effective on wet surfaces
Check the outsole for compacted mud and clean the lugs thoroughly to restore traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Salomon XT-6 trainers, it is recommended to loosen the laces fully before putting the shoe on to preserve the integrity of the heel structure. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft brush after your excursion. If the shoes become heavily soiled, hand wash them with lukewarm water and a mild detergent; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can damage the technical adhesives and materials. Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or intense sunlight.
