- Is the Speedcross 6 GTX good for road running?
- It can handle short stretches of pavement, but the deep lugs wear fast on asphalt and the ride is firm. It is built for trails.
- How does it differ from the standard Speedcross 6?
- The GTX adds a Gore-Tex waterproof membrane. The outsole, drop and fit are otherwise the same, so the GTX is warmer and less breathable.
- Does it fit true to size?
- It runs snug, especially in the forefoot. Runners with wide feet should consider the wide width or a half size up.
- Is it waterproof enough for stream crossings?
- It sheds rain and splashes well, but water can enter over the ankle collar in deep crossings, and the membrane dries slowly.
- What is the drop and cushioning like?
- It has a 10 mm drop with a firm EVA midsole and an Ortholite insole. Cushioning is moderate and protective rather than soft.
- Can I wash it in a machine?
- No. Salomon does not list it as washable. Rinse off mud by hand and air dry away from direct heat.
