FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The XT-Whisper features breathable mesh for comfort; while durable, it is not marketed as a fully waterproof shoe.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the OrthoLite sockliners are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
How do I clean the mesh material?
Use a soft brush to remove dirt and wipe the surface with a damp cloth; avoid harsh detergents.
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
While they provide great cushioning and stability, they are primarily designed for versatility, including walking and light trail activities.
What should I do if the laces break?
The quickLACE system is a specific Salomon component; contact authorized retailers for compatible replacement kits.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Salomon trainers generally follow standard sizing; however, always refer to the specific UK size guide provided for your model.
Troubleshooting
Quicklace feels too loose or tight
Adjust the lace tension manually by sliding the stopper up or down; ensure the lace is evenly distributed across the eyelets.
Accumulation of mud in the outsole
Use a stiff-bristled brush once the mud has dried to dislodge debris from the Mud contaGRIP lug pattern.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance out of your XT-Whisper trainers, ensure the quickLACE system is tightened evenly across the forefoot to prevent pressure points. For maintenance, remove the sockliner after heavy use to let it air dry naturally, which preserves the foam's integrity. Clean the mesh upper by brushing off loose dirt with a soft brush and wiping with a damp cloth; avoid machine washing as it can compromise the structural bonding of the synthetic overlays. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain material color and flexibility.
