FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday casual wear?

While comfortable, the Salomon XT-6 Advanced Hiking shoes are designed with technical features for outdoor performance. They may be more robust than needed for purely casual use, but are perfectly fine if you prefer a supportive and durable shoe.

How do I properly use the QUICKLACE system?

Slip your foot in, pull the laces evenly with the toggle until snug, then lock the toggle. Tuck the excess lace ends into the small pocket on the tongue to keep them out of the way.

What type of terrain is the CONTAGRIP sole best for?

The CONTAGRIP sole is designed for versatility and provides excellent grip and durability across a wide range of surfaces, including dry, wet, hard, and soft ground.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics or different insoles if desired.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Salomon XT-6 Advanced Hiking shoes are designed to be water-resistant, offering protection against light rain and splashes. They are not fully waterproof and may not be suitable for prolonged immersion in water.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Salomon. It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the UK sizing. For hiking shoes, it's often advisable to have a little extra room for comfort during long treks.

Troubleshooting

Laces not staying tight

Ensure the QUICKLACE toggle is fully engaged. If the laces are worn, they may need replacement.

Discomfort on long hikes

Verify the fit is correct and that socks provide adequate cushioning. Break in the shoes on shorter walks before undertaking extensive hikes.

Traction issues on wet surfaces

While CONTAGRIP offers excellent grip, extremely slick surfaces may still pose a challenge. Clean the sole regularly to ensure optimal performance.

Difficulty tucking laces

Ensure laces are sufficiently tightened so there is less excess to tuck. The lace pocket is designed to hold the end of the lace securely.

Cons

  • May be overly technical for casual everyday use
  • Lacing system requires a specific way to tuck laces

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The QUICKLACE system is designed for immediate use. Simply slip on the shoes and pull the laces tight using the toggle. Tuck the excess lace neatly into the lace pocket on the tongue to prevent snagging.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for outdoor activities and are compatible with standard hiking socks. They are best suited for trails, rocky terrain, and mixed surfaces.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their condition.
