FAQs
Are the Salomon XT-6 trainers waterproof?
The XT-6 trainers feature breathable mesh uppers and are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability, which means they offer limited protection against heavy rain or submersion in water.
How do I clean the Ortholite sockliner?
The Ortholite sockliner can typically be removed. Hand wash it gently with mild soap and cool water, then allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
What is the main benefit of the ACS cushioning?
ACS (Advanced Chassis System) cushioning provides a stable and responsive ride, helping to control the foot's motion and protect against impact, especially on uneven terrain.
Can I use these for road running?
While the Contagrip sole offers good grip, the XT-6 is primarily designed for trail and mixed-terrain running. For dedicated road running, a shoe with a road-specific sole might be more optimal.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a finger's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
What is the difference between this grey version and other colours?
The core technology and construction remain consistent across different colourways. Differences are purely aesthetic, with variations in colour family and secondary colours used for the uppers and accents.
Troubleshooting
Laces won't tighten properly
Ensure the Quicklace knot is secure and fully engaged. Check that the lacing channels are free of debris.
Discomfort on longer runs
The shoes may require a break-in period. Consider using thicker socks or adjusting the lacing pattern for pressure points.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces
While Contagrip is robust, excessive water can reduce grip. Ensure the outsole is clean of mud or debris, which can affect performance.
Mesh upper feels too warm
Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks. For extreme heat, ensure proper hydration and take breaks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Salomon XT-6 Trainers are ready to wear out of the box. The Quicklace system allows for one-pull tightening and loosening. To adjust the fit, pull the laces tighter or loosen them as needed, then tuck the excess lace into the pocket on the tongue.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for a wide range of activities, including trail running, hiking, and casual everyday wear. They are compatible with various sock types. Ensure you select the correct UK size for the best fit.
Care: To clean your XT-6 trainers, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and debris from the uppers and sole. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cool water with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
