How do I choose the right size?
It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the Salomon sizing chart. Given the specific fit of trail running shoes, trying them on in person is ideal if possible.
Can I use these for everyday casual wear?

How do I clean the Quicklace™ system?
The Quicklace™ system itself requires minimal cleaning. Wipe the toggle and laces with a damp cloth. If the mechanism becomes stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied sparingly.
What makes the XT-6 different from other Salomon models?
The XT-6 is known for its balance of cushioning, stability, and aggressive traction, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of trail conditions. It often features a more protective upper compared to road running shoes.
Troubleshooting
Quicklace system is too tight or too loose.
Adjust the toggle by sliding it up to tighten and down to loosen. Ensure the laces are evenly distributed before tightening.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces.
Clean the rubber sole of any mud or debris. For significantly wet conditions, consider alternative footwear if extreme grip is paramount.
Discomfort or rubbing after initial wear.
Ensure the correct size is being worn and adjust the Quicklace system for a personalized fit. Break-in period may be necessary for some users.
Laces appear worn or damaged.

Care: To maintain the condition of your XT-6 trainers:
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and construction.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
