FAQs
How do I clean my Salomon Speedcross 6 GTX?
Use a brush or cloth to remove dirt and mud. Rinse with lukewarm water. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally.
Are these shoes suitable for road running?
While the Speedcross 6 GTX can be used on roads, their aggressive lug pattern is optimized for trail running and may wear down faster on pavement.
What is GORE-TEX?
GORE-TEX is a waterproof and breathable membrane that keeps your feet dry while allowing moisture vapor to escape.
How often should I reapply waterproofing treatment?
Reapply a waterproofing treatment when you notice a decrease in water repellency, typically after several uses or washes.
Can I put the shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash the Speedcross 6 GTX, as it can damage the materials and affect the GORE-TEX membrane. Hand wash only.
What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?
Trail running socks or socks with moisture-wicking properties are recommended for optimal comfort and performance.
What is the lifespan of these shoes?
The lifespan depends on usage and care. Typically, trail running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure the correct size and lacing technique. Consider trying different socks or loosening the laces.
Water is leaking into the shoes.
Check for any damage to the GORE-TEX membrane. If no damage is found, reapply a waterproofing treatment.
Poor grip on certain surfaces.
The shoes are optimized for muddy and soft terrain. They may not provide the same level of grip on hard-packed trails or pavement.

Remove the insoles to speed up the drying process. Avoid placing the shoes near a heat source.
