Yes, the Salomon XT-6 GORE-TEX features a GORE-TEX membrane, making them waterproof and breathable, designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.
Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Rinse with lukewarm water and air dry naturally away from direct heat. Avoid harsh detergents.
Quicklace is Salomon's minimalist and strong lacing system for one-pull tightening. It allows for easy on and off, and a quick, secure, customized fit. Simply pull to tighten and store the excess lace in the tongue pocket.
While rooted in Salomon's trail-running legacy, the XT-6 GORE-TEX has evolved into a versatile shoe built for tough city conditions and varied light terrain. They are suitable for light trail running, walking, and everyday wear, offering stability and protection.
These shoes feature an OrthoLite® insole, which provides superior cushioning, breathability, and durability, enhancing overall comfort.
While the GORE-TEX membrane is breathable, its primary function is waterproofing. In very hot or humid conditions, they might feel warmer than non-waterproof shoes. They are best suited for cool, damp, or variable weather conditions.
While GORE-TEX is breathable, it offers waterproof protection which can retain more warmth than non-waterproof shoes. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks (e.g., moisture-wicking synthetic or wool blends, not cotton) for the conditions. If the issue persists in extremely warm weather, these shoes might be better suited for cooler or wetter conditions.
To adjust the Quicklace, slide the plastic clip up towards the tongue to loosen, or slide it down away from the tongue to tighten. Ensure the laces are evenly distributed over the top of your foot. Once adjusted, secure the excess lace into the lace pocket on the tongue.
Check if water is entering from the top opening (e.g., over the collar in deep puddles or heavy rain). Ensure the GORE-TEX membrane is not compromised by a puncture. Clean the outer fabric and consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment if water is no longer beading on the surface, as this helps the membrane function optimally.
The Mud Contagrip outsole is designed for optimal grip on loose, soft, uneven, and muddy surfaces. While versatile, its performance may vary on extremely smooth, polished, or icy surfaces. Exercise caution on such conditions.
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your XT-6 GORE-TEX shoes:
