Proper care is essential to extend the life and maintain the performance of your Salomon XT-6 sneakers:
Cleaning: After use, particularly on trails, brush off any loose dirt or mud with a soft brush. For a more thorough clean, use lukewarm water and a mild, non-detergent soap. Gently scrub the mesh and TPU surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or machine washing, as these can damage materials and adhesives.
Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, heaters, or direct sunlight, which can cause materials to crack, shrink, or delaminate. You can stuff them with newspaper to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
Lace Maintenance: Periodically inspect the QuickLACE™ system for any signs of wear or fraying. Info needed: [Specific replacement instructions or kits for QuickLACE™ system components].
