FAQs

Are these sneakers suitable for running?

While the Salomon XT-Whisper offers excellent cushioning and stability suitable for light activities, it's primarily designed for versatile daily wear, urban exploration, and light trails. For dedicated long-distance or high-intensity running, you might consider specialized running shoes.

Are the XT-Whisper sneakers waterproof?

No, the 3D open mesh upper is designed for maximum breathability, not waterproofing. They are not intended for use in heavy rain or wet conditions where waterproofing is required.

What does the 'Sensifit' technology do?

Sensifit is a system that cradles the foot from the midsole to the lacing system, providing a secure, snug, and virtually customized fit all around the foot. This enhances comfort and helps prevent the foot from sliding within the shoe.

How do I choose the correct size?

The Salomon XT-Whisper typically runs true to size. We recommend measuring your foot length and referring to the Salomon sizing chart. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for a snug versus a more relaxed fit.

Can I use custom orthotics with these shoes?

Yes, the standard insoles are generally removable, allowing you to replace them with your custom orthotics if needed. Ensure your orthotics fit comfortably within the shoe.

What is the Agile Chassis System (ACS)?

The Agile Chassis System is a stability technology integrated into the midsole. It works to enhance stability and motion control, especially on technical or varied terrain, while still allowing for natural foot movement.

Troubleshooting

My feet feel too hot or sweaty.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks. The 3D open mesh is designed for breathability, but sock choice can significantly impact comfort. Also, allow shoes to air out after each use.

The fit doesn't feel secure or my heel slips.

Adjust your lacing. The Sensifit system works best with a properly tightened lacing. Try different lacing patterns to find one that best suits your foot shape and provides optimal heel lock. Ensure you are wearing socks of appropriate thickness.

There's an unusual squeaking sound while walking.

This can sometimes be caused by the insole rubbing against the bottom of the shoe. Remove the insoles, clean them and the inside of the shoe, then reinsert. If the issue persists, try a thin layer of baby powder under the insole or consider replacing the insole.

Care

To maintain the longevity and appearance of your Salomon XT-Whisper sneakers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  4. Odor Control: Remove insoles to air out after use. Consider using shoe deodorizers if necessary.
