- Is the Salomon XT-6 GTX actually waterproof?
- Yes. It has a Gore-Tex membrane and a textile and synthetic upper built to keep water out. It handles rain, puddles and wet trails, though it is not a fully submersible boot.
- How does the GTX compare to the regular XT-6?
- The GTX adds a waterproof Gore-Tex lining and is a bit heavier and warmer. The regular XT-6 breathes better and suits dry, warm conditions.
- Does it fit true to size?
- Most owners go true to size, and the shoe is listed in a wide fit. If you wear thick socks or have very wide feet, consider a half size up.
- Can I use it for road running?
- It works on pavement, but the lugged outsole and waterproof build are aimed at trails and wet weather. For pure road running, a lighter road shoe is a better choice.
- What is in the box?
- You get the pair of shoes with the Quicklace system already fitted. Spare laces are not always included, so check the listing if you want a backup cord.
- When is the best time to buy it?
- The best new price is $200 at Nordstrom as of November 7, 2026. Trail shoes usually drop during end-of-season sales and around major shopping events.
