FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
The XT-Whisper is designed primarily for daily training and general activities. While durable, they are best suited for moderate use rather than professional long-distance racing.
How do I choose the right size?
Salomon sizing is generally consistent, but it is recommended to check your measurement against the UK size guide for your specific model variant.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to wash these trainers in a machine, as the heat and agitation can damage the structural integrity and materials.
Do these provide arch support?
The XT-Whisper provides standard neutral support, which is suitable for most users during general training and walking.
What is the difference between the nylon and polyester models?
The primary difference lies in the textile upper properties; nylon models may offer a different texture and weight compared to polyester models, though both are durable.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel slightly tight upon first wear
The materials may need a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations indoors before full athletic use.
Accumulated dirt on the mesh or fabric
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove loose dust and debris before wiping with a damp cloth.
Laces becoming untied during activity
Ensure you are using a double knot or checking that the laces are fed through the eyelets correctly to maintain tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Salomon XT-Whisper trainers maintain their performance, proper care is essential. When you first receive your pair, verify the size and material composition to ensure the best fit for your specific foot shape. To keep them clean, avoid submerging them in water; instead, use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away surface dirt. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can degrade the materials and adhesives. Store them in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup inside the lining.
