FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for hiking?

The Salomon XT-Whisper trainers are best suited for light trail use and everyday wear. They offer good grip and support but are not designed for technical or strenuous hiking conditions.

How do I clean the Quicklace system?

The Quicklace system is designed for durability and should be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. The lace garage can be cleaned with a small brush.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the Ortholite insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics or other compatible insoles for personalized comfort and support.

What is the main benefit of the Sensifit application?

The wavy Sensifit application is designed to precisely hug the foot, providing a secure and comfortable fit that enhances stability and reduces internal foot slippage during activity.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the Salomon XT-Whisper trainers are not waterproof. They are constructed with breathable mesh uppers for ventilation, which means they are not designed to repel water.

What does 'Gorpcore' aesthetic mean for these shoes?

The 'Gorpcore' aesthetic refers to a style that blends outdoor and functional clothing into everyday fashion. These trainers fit this style with their technical features and practical design, making them a popular choice for a casual, outdoor-inspired look.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to Salomon's official sizing chart and measure your foot accurately. Given they are unisex, consider comparing to standard men's or women's sizing if unsure. Trying them on in person is recommended if possible.

Troubleshooting

Quicklace system is too tight or too loose

Adjust the tension by pulling the lace lock tighter or loosening it. Ensure the excess lace is securely stored in the lace garage.

Shoes feel uncomfortable after initial wear

Break-in period may be required. Ensure correct sizing and consider using the removable insoles for custom comfort. If discomfort persists, consult sizing guides or try a different size.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

While Contagrip offers excellent traction, performance can vary. Ensure the outsole is clean of mud or debris, which can affect grip. For extremely slippery conditions, exercise caution.

Mesh upper appears dirty

Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely.

Compatibility:

The Salomon XT-Whisper trainers are designed for a unisex fit and are compatible with a wide range of casual and athletic wear. They are suitable for adults of all genders.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt from the exterior. For stubborn dirt, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  2. Lining: Clean the inside of the shoes with a damp cloth. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Insoles: Remove insoles for separate cleaning if needed. Hand wash with mild soap and water, then air dry.
  5. Laces: The Quicklace system is not designed for removal. Clean the laces and the lace garage area with a damp cloth.
