Product Information
Full details
The Salomon XT-Whisper GTX is a high-performance, winterized trail shoe designed for outdoor enthusiasts who require reliable protection against the elements without sacrificing agility. Featuring a rugged GORE-TEX waterproof membrane and advanced grip technology, it is ideal for hikers and trail runners navigating wet or uneven terrain. While the shoe offers exceptional stability and weatherproofing, the technical ripstop construction and specialized lace system may feel slightly more rigid than traditional casual sneakers.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is recommended to hand wash them with a soft brush and cool water to preserve the GORE-TEX integrity.
Can I replace the Quicklace system if it breaks?
Yes, Salomon provides replacement Quicklace kits that are compatible with the XT-Whisper series.
Are they suitable for road running?
While capable, the Mud Contagrip outsole is optimized for trails and soft ground; excessive road use will accelerate lug wear.
How do I know if the GORE-TEX is still working?
If water no longer beads up on the surface of the ripstop fabric, the DWR coating may need refreshing, but the internal membrane should still keep you dry.
Should I size up for these shoes?
Salomon generally fits true to size, but if you prefer thicker hiking socks, many users opt for a half-size larger than their casual footwear.
Troubleshooting
Quicklace system feels difficult to tighten
Ensure the laces are not twisted inside the lace eyelets and that the toggle mechanism is free of debris.
Reduced waterproof performance
Ensure the exterior is clean. Dirt accumulation can interfere with the DWR coating. If needed, apply a GORE-TEX-safe re-waterproofing spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Salomon XT-Whisper GTX, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Adjustment: Use the Quicklace system by pulling the lace toggle until tight, then tuck the excess lace and the toggle into the dedicated garage pocket on the tongue to prevent snagging.
- Cleaning: Remove loose mud with a soft brush after each use. If the shoes are heavily soiled, rinse with cool water and mild soap; do not use heavy detergents or bleach.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, as intense heat can damage the waterproof membrane and synthetic bonding agents.
- Insole Care: Periodically remove the OrthoLite insoles to allow them to air out completely, preventing odor buildup.
