Salomon XT-Whisper Trainers - Grey - UK 10

Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX membrane, which provides a high level of waterproof protection while maintaining breathability.

While they offer great stability via the Agile Chassis System, they are designed primarily as lifestyle trainers. They are suitable for light trails but may lack the specialized deep lugs required for extreme mountain climbing.

Salomon sizing typically follows standard UK sizing. We recommend checking the size guide to ensure a consistent fit with your previous Salomon models, as some users prefer a half-size up to accommodate thicker socks.

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.

Salomon designs these with modern materials that keep the weight manageable, though they may feel slightly more substantial than non-weatherproof mesh trainers.

The GORE-TEX membrane is integrated into the shoe, so you do not need to apply external waterproofing sprays for the membrane itself, though keeping the upper clean helps maintain performance.

Adjust the laces to loosen the Sensifit application across the midfoot, or consider wearing thinner socks until the material breaks in.

Ensure you are using moisture-wicking synthetic or wool-blend socks; cotton holds moisture and limits the effectiveness of the GORE-TEX breathability.

Gently clean the reflective areas with a soft cloth and water to remove accumulated dust or grime that may be obscuring the reflective coating.
