Salomon XT-Whisper Trainers - White - UK 7.5

No, the Salomon XT-Whisper trainers are not specifically designed to be waterproof. They feature a breathable layered mesh upper, which offers good ventilation but will allow water to penetrate in wet conditions. For waterproof options, look for Salomon models with GORE-TEX technology.

For best results, hand wash your trainers with cool water and a mild soap. Use a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub the upper and sole. Remove the sockliner to clean separately if needed. Air dry away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or drying.

Yes, the Quicklace™ system uses a strong, minimalistic lace designed for durability and longevity. It is engineered to withstand regular use and provides a secure and consistent fit. While robust, avoid excessive force when tightening or loosening.

The Salomon XT-Whisper trainers are built with trail heritage and offer good support and grip. While they can handle light jogs, they are primarily designed for walking, light hiking, and casual wear due to their stability-focused chassis and hybrid design. For dedicated running, especially high-mileage or aggressive trail running, Salomon offers other specialized running shoe models.

Generally, Salomon trainers are known to fit true to size for most users. However, fit can vary slightly depending on individual foot shape. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit or consulting Salomon's size guide if purchasing online.

The OrthoLite® Sockliner is a high-performance insole that provides superior cushioning, breathability, and moisture management. It is designed to be lightweight and contribute to the overall comfort and health of your foot inside the shoe by resisting compression set over time.

Ensure you are pulling the Quicklace™ tab firmly and evenly to tighten. To loosen, press the release button on the tab and pull the tongue forward. Adjust until a comfortable, secure fit is achieved.

Check your sock choice; a good quality, well-fitting athletic sock can make a difference. Ensure the Quicklace™ is not overtightened in specific areas. The OrthoLite® Sockliner is designed for comfort, but a short break-in period may be needed. If discomfort persists, consider trying different lacing tensions.

While Mud Contagrip® offers excellent traction, no outsole guarantees grip on all surfaces. Be mindful of extremely wet, icy, or highly polished surfaces. Check the tread for wear; excessive wear will reduce grip. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of mud or debris.

Promptly clean stains using a mild soap solution and a soft brush or cloth. For mud, let it dry first, then brush off as much as possible before cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the material or color.

Ensure the Quicklace™ tab is fully pushed into the pocket. Sometimes, if the laces are too long after tightening, they can put pressure on the tab. Try to tuck the excess lace neatly around or within the pocket.
