FAQs
Are the Salomon XT-6 suitable for running marathons?
While the XT-6 offers comfort and support, they are primarily designed for trail running and everyday wear. For marathon distances, dedicated marathon running shoes might offer more specialized cushioning and energy return.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Salomon or the retailer. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the UK sizing guide. Consider trying them on if possible, as fit can vary.
Can I wear these in the rain?
The XT-6 trainers offer some protection against light rain, but they are not waterproof. For heavy rain, your feet may get wet. They are best suited for dry or moderately wet conditions.
What is the primary advantage of the Quicklace™ system?
The Quicklace™ system allows for fast, one-pull tightening and loosening of the laces, offering a secure and customizable fit without the need for traditional knot-tying.
How do I clean the upper material?
Gently clean the upper with a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution. Wipe with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Are these shoes good for wide feet?
The Salomon XT-6 generally have a medium fit. If you have particularly wide feet, it's advisable to check reviews or try them on, as some users may find them snug.
What does 'XT-6' signify?
The 'XT-6' designation refers to a specific model within Salomon's line, known for its consistent performance and iconic design that has evolved over time.
Troubleshooting
Laces not staying tied
Ensure the laces are tied securely using a double knot. If the laces are old or worn, consider replacing them with a new pair that offers better grip.
Discomfort or rubbing
Verify you have the correct size and width. Try adjusting the lacing system to provide more or less tension in specific areas. Wearing appropriate socks can also help prevent rubbing.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
The outsole provides good traction, but performance on extremely wet or slick surfaces may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is clean from mud or debris, as this can impede grip.
Water ingress
These trainers are not fully waterproof. For protection against heavy rain or submersion, consider using waterproof socks or a dedicated waterproofing spray suitable for athletic footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Salomon XT-6 trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. The lacing system allows for quick and secure adjustments.
Compatibility:
These trainers are designed for unisex adult use. They are compatible with a wide range of casual and athletic apparel.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can cause deformation or material degradation.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
