FAQs
Are the Salomon XT-6 trainers suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, the XT-6 trainers are designed with a blend of performance technology and urban aesthetics, making them suitable for both athletic activities and casual everyday wear.
How do I clean my Salomon XT-6 trainers?
Clean with a soft brush or cloth and mild soap and water. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
What does the QUICKLACE™ system do?
The QUICKLACE™ system allows for fast and easy one-pull tightening and loosening of the laces, providing a secure fit with minimal effort.
Can I replace the OrthoLite® insole?
Yes, the OrthoLite® insole is removable and can be replaced with a custom orthotic or a different insole if desired, though the original is designed for optimal comfort and support.
What kind of grip does the CONTAGRIP® outsole provide?
CONTAGRIP® provides superior traction on a wide variety of surfaces, designed to give confidence and stability whether on dry, wet, or uneven terrain.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The XT-6 trainers are constructed with durable TPU and breathable mesh, offering protection and ventilation. They are not fully waterproof but provide some resistance to light moisture.
How do I ensure the right fit?
Refer to Salomon's sizing chart and consider reading customer reviews regarding fit. Trying them on in person is the most reliable way to ensure the correct size and fit for your feet.
Troubleshooting
QUICKLACE™ system not tightening properly.
Ensure the lace lock is fully engaged. Check for any debris obstructing the lace path. If the lace is frayed, it may need replacement.
Slipping sensation on wet surfaces.
While CONTAGRIP® offers superior traction, extremely slick surfaces may still pose a risk. Ensure the outsole is clean, as mud or debris can reduce grip.
Discomfort or pressure points.
Adjust the QUICKLACE™ system for a more customized fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe size is correct or if the internal structure is causing an issue.
Mesh upper appears dirty.
Refer to the care instructions for cleaning the mesh. Use a soft brush and mild soap with water. Avoid abrasive materials that could damage the mesh.
