FAQs
Are the Salomon XT-6 suitable for long-distance running?
The XT-6 offers good cushioning and support for daily wear and shorter runs. For ultra-marathons or very long distances on technical terrain, dedicated long-distance or trail running shoes might offer more specialized support and cushioning.
How do I clean the synthetic and textile upper?
Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap and cool water. Gently scrub the affected areas and wipe clean. Allow to air dry completely.
What is the main advantage of the Mud Contagrip® outsole?
The Mud Contagrip® outsole is specifically designed to provide exceptional grip on soft, slippery, and muddy surfaces, preventing slips and ensuring stability in challenging conditions.
Can I replace the OrthoLite® insole?
Yes, the molded OrthoLite® insole is removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics or different insoles if desired, though it is designed for lasting cushioning.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Salomon XT-6 trainers are not fully waterproof. They feature breathable textile materials and are designed for performance in various conditions, but they do not have a waterproof membrane. Water may penetrate through the upper.
What is the weight of a single Salomon XT-6 trainer?
A single Salomon XT-6 trainer weighs approximately 369.6 grams.
Do these shoes come in different widths?
The XT-6 is generally offered in a standard width. The SensiFit™ construction aims to provide a secure and adaptable fit for a variety of foot shapes.
Troubleshooting
Laces not staying tight
Ensure the Quicklace toggle is fully pulled down. Check that lace ends are properly secured in the lace pocket. If laces appear worn, consider replacing them.
Discomfort or hot spots
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Adjust the Quicklace system for a more even pressure distribution. Consider wearing thicker or cushioned socks.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Clean the outsole to remove any embedded debris. The Contagrip® is designed for wet conditions, but extreme wear can reduce effectiveness over time.
Odor inside the shoe
Remove insoles and allow shoes to air out completely. Use a shoe deodorizer or baking soda inside the shoes when not in use. Regular cleaning can also help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:
These trainers are designed for a wide range of users and activities, from urban environments to light trail running. They are compatible with various sock types, with moisture-wicking or padded options recommended for extended use.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap and cool water with a cloth or brush. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or box to protect them from dust and damage.
