FAQs
Are the XT-6 trainers waterproof?
The XT-6 is made from breathable mesh and TPU; while durable, it is not fully waterproof.
Can I replace the Quicklace system?
Yes, replacement Quicklace kits are available from Salomon, though they require specific threading techniques.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud, then gently scrub with warm water and a small amount of mild detergent.
Is this shoe good for road running?
While capable, it is primarily designed for trail use; the aggressive lugs may wear down faster on asphalt.
How long does the cushioning last?
The EVA midsole is designed for high mileage, but performance may begin to diminish significantly after 400-500 miles of use.
Troubleshooting
Lace tension feels uneven
Loosen the Quicklace completely by sliding the toggle up, then pull from the base eyelets upwards to redistribute tension through the system.
Inner heel wear
Ensure the shoe is fully unlaced before taking it off, rather than forcing your foot out, to prevent friction and damage to the internal lining.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent stability on uneven ground
- Highly durable outer materials
- Convenient speed-lacing system
- Versatile aesthetic for sports and street wear
Cons
- May feel stiff during initial break-in period
- Narrower fit compared to standard casual sneakers
- Laces can be difficult to replace if damaged
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your XT-6 trainers stay in peak condition, pull the Quicklace tight and tuck the excess lace into the dedicated lace pocket on the tongue. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the TPU layers. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become soaked, remove the insoles and air dry them away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping. These trainers are true-to-size for performance footwear, but if you prefer wearing thicker hiking socks, consider trying a half-size larger.
