FAQs
Are the Salomon XT-6 trainers waterproof?
While built to withstand severe weather, the standard XT-6 is designed for durability and breathability rather than being fully waterproof.
Can I use these for marathon running?
Yes, the XT-6 is engineered for extreme distance running and provides the support necessary for marathon-length efforts.
How does the sizing compare to other brands?
Salomon sizing is generally standard, but because these are performance trainers, they may have a more snug, secure fit than fashion sneakers.
What is the primary difference between the 2012 original and the new version?
The new version features updated materials and enhanced cushioning technology while keeping the original high-performance silhouette.
Is the XT-6 suitable for trail running?
Absolutely, the outsole is designed with grip and stability in mind, making it well-suited for various trail conditions.
How often should I replace my XT-6 trainers?
Typically, performance running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of use and terrain.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after short runs
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly and allow for a standard break-in period of 30-50 miles to let the cushioning adapt to your foot strike.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
Check the outsole lugs for impacted mud or debris and clean the tread thoroughly with a soft brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Salomon XT-6 trainers, it is important to verify your fit, as the performance-oriented cut can run slightly different from standard casual sneakers. For care, avoid machine washing to maintain the integrity of the specialized performance materials. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and mud. Air-dry the shoes in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the adhesive and cushioning foams.
