The Salomon XT-6 sneaker is engineered to excel in varied and demanding conditions, making it a reliable choice for a range of activities. Its design blends the ruggedness of a trail running shoe with the comfort needed for everyday wear.
Trail Running: On technical trails, the Mud Contagrip® Outsole provides confidence with its aggressive lug pattern, digging into loose earth and mud for reliable traction. The Agile Chassis™ System works in conjunction with the outsole to maintain stability on uneven ground, reducing the risk of twists and turns. The Abrasion-Resistant TPU Material protects against scrapes and impacts from rocks and debris, ensuring the shoe withstands harsh environments.
Urban Exploration & Daily Wear: For city adventures, the XT-6 offers exceptional comfort and support. The EndoFit™ & SensiFIT™ construction cradles your foot, providing a snug fit that's comfortable for long walks or standing periods. The Moulded OrthoLite® Sockliner adds a layer of plush cushioning, absorbing impact from hard surfaces. Its distinct aesthetic also makes it a popular choice for those seeking a blend of performance and style in their daily footwear.

This sneaker is built to withstand the rigors of your active lifestyle, providing a combination of protection, comfort, and grip that translates directly into enhanced performance.
Using the QuickLACEâ„¢ system is straightforward:
To Tighten: Pull the thin lace away from the shoe until you achieve your desired fit. Ensure the lace is evenly distributed across your foot for optimal comfort.
To Secure: Once tightened, push the locking mechanism down to secure the lace. Tuck any excess lace into the elastic lace pocket on the tongue to prevent snagging.
To Loosen: Press the release button on the locking mechanism and pull the tongue of the shoe upwards to loosen the laces.
Unisex Design: The Salomon XT-6 is designed as a unisex sneaker, accommodating a wide range of foot shapes and sizes.
Activity Versatility: Ideal for trail running, light hiking, city walking, and casual wear due to its blend of durability, traction, and comfort.
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your XT-6 sneakers:
Cleaning the Upper (Mesh & TPU): After use, especially in muddy conditions, gently brush off loose dirt. Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and mild soap mixed with lukewarm water. Scrub gently. Avoid harsh detergents.
Cleaning the Outsole (Mud Contagrip®): Rinse the outsole with water to remove mud and debris. A stiff brush can help dislodge stubborn dirt from the lugs.
Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight, or tumble dryers), as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Sockliner Care: The Moulded OrthoLite® sockliner can be removed and hand-washed separately with mild soap and water. Allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
