Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The XT-6 series was originally designed for trail running and excels in technical terrain. While they offer good support, their durability and structure might make them feel stiffer than dedicated road running shoes for some users.
What does 'Rainy Day' refer to in the colour description?
'Rainy Day' refers to a specific colour palette used by Salomon, typically involving muted, darker tones suitable for various weather conditions, in this case, combined with Black and White.
How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the UK sizing provided. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the brand's sizing chart, if available, or consult with a retailer for the best fit.
Can I wear these in wet conditions?
The materials used are generally durable and can handle light moisture. However, they are not fully waterproof, so prolonged exposure to heavy rain may require additional protective measures or thorough drying afterward.
What is the main difference between trainers and hiking shoes in the XT-6 series?
While sharing the same core design and technology, XT-6 hiking shoes often feature more rugged outsoles and potentially enhanced upper materials for superior grip and protection on challenging trails, whereas trainers are optimized for a balance of performance and daily wear.
How do I maintain the Quicklace™ system?
The Quicklace™ system is designed for durability. Keep the lace clean and ensure it is properly secured in the lace pocket. Replacement laces are available if needed.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose
Utilize the Quicklace™ system by pulling the lace ends evenly. Tuck the excess lace into the integrated lace pocket on the tongue for a secure fit.
Discomfort during initial wear
This is common for performance footwear. Wear the trainers for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow the shoe to conform to your foot.
Slight stiffness in the upper material
This indicates the durable construction. Continued wear will soften the materials, enhancing flexibility and comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. They are compatible with most athletic and casual apparel.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve colour and material integrity.
