FAQs
How do I adjust the Quicklace™ system?
Pull the laces evenly to tighten the shoe. Push the Quicklace™ stopper to loosen. Tuck the excess lace into the lace pocket to keep it secure and out of the way.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Salomon XT-6 trainers are water-resistant but not fully waterproof. They can handle light moisture and splashes, but prolonged immersion in water may lead to them getting wet.
What is the main purpose of the Salomon XT-6?
Originally designed for ultra-distance trail running, the XT-6 is now popular for its performance capabilities on various terrains and its distinctive style, making it suitable for both athletic activities and everyday wear.
How should I clean my XT-6 trainers?
Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Remove loose dirt and debris. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat. Do not machine wash.
What size should I order?
It is recommended to consult a sizing chart and consider trying them on if possible, as shoe sizes can vary. Many users find them to fit true to size, but personal preference for fit can differ.
Can I use these for road running?
While primarily designed for trails, the XT-6 offers sufficient cushioning for some road running. However, dedicated road running shoes may offer better optimized performance for asphalt.
What does the 'XT-6' designation mean?
The 'XT' in Salomon's naming typically refers to 'Cross Trail,' indicating their suitability for varied and challenging terrains. The '6' often denotes an iteration or evolution of a particular design line.
Troubleshooting
Laces not staying tight
Ensure the Quicklace™ stopper is fully engaged. If it continues to loosen, check the lace ends for fraying and ensure they are properly seated in the stopper mechanism. Consider re-tying the knot if applicable.
Discomfort or rubbing
Verify you have the correct size and width. Ensure socks are appropriate for athletic footwear. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially.
Traction issues on slippery surfaces
The XT-6 is designed for varied terrain, but extreme conditions like ice may limit traction. Ensure the outsole is clean from mud or debris which can affect grip.
Water seeping into the shoe
While offering some protection, these are not waterproof boots. For heavy rain or water crossings, consider waterproof socks or gaiters. Ensure all seams and materials are intact.
