Years ago, you'd find that the XT-6 was pretty much exclusive to the trail community. These days, it's a streetwear icon. This iteration sees the Alpine brand's utilitarian magnum opus arrive in a Sensifit closed-mesh 'Vanilla Ice' upper, which comes protected by durable TPU welding. Underfoot, a dual-density midsole is found atop a Contagrip rubber outsole - offering up advanced cushioning and geometrical grip on a plethora of urban and rural environments.

I saw these shoe and immediately wanted them. After receiving them, I must say, they are the nicest looking shoes I’ve purchased in a while. This is coming from someone who owns over 100 pairs of sneakers, with most being New Balance. Not only is the look o the shows nice, so is the comfort. I’ve seen a few reviews stating that they aren’t made that great, and I must differ on that. For me, they’re an absolute must buy!!

This colorway caught my eye immediately! I’m happy I was able to grab a pair in my size :) For those with wide feet, these fit close to Adidas Ultraboost sizing. In Ultraboost I’m a kids 6, got these in a men’s 6 fit perfect.

I’ve only had these since mid-June and they’re falling apart after less than two months! Very disappointed :(Wore these only for a few days and they're already damaged. The plastic securing the laces have broken into pieces and there's holes in the upper mesh of the shoes. The plastic is bubbling and cracking off along the sides. The stitching is fraying around the top of the shoes.Really bummed because I love the look of these but they barely held up after light wear and tear...

I had the some trail runners from Salomon that felt a bit bigger than expected, so I went a half size down on these. The smaller size fits okay, but I probably didn’t need to size down.But other than that, they are great!! The lacing system works well, they look good in person, and they were great for a bunch of long countryside walks. Also they cleaned up well after getting them a bit muddy!
Liked so many things about these shoes but I'm returning them. I usually wear a size 8 in athletic shoes but this size 8 was very large - too long and too wide overall. The heel was way too wide since I have a narrow heel. This is the first pair of unisex shoes I've ever ordered and maybe that style just isn't for me.
Loving these, and very comfortable and supportive. So far I’ve only used them on paving, but looking forward to wearing them on my hike. Would definitely recommend them, and love the colour way!
I love the look and feel of this shoe, and it’s extremely comfortable to wear. Unfortunately I have to give them a very poor rating as they heavily started falling apart after 6 months of moderate wear. The heel and sole have ripped and deteriorated making them uncomfortable to wear.
I am an avid Salomon fan. I even own their ski bindings and other outdoor equipment and several pairs of their shoes. I will say that although the Xt 6 is by far the most comfortable and stylish shoe they have, you have to baby them. Mine are destroyed after only about less than a year of regular wear. I think for a shoe that was originally designed for the outdoors it's disappointing to have to worry about doing anything in them. Also Salomon customer service has not been the best in my experience. I've had similar issues with the XT 2 wings as well so Id steer clear of any of the XT shoes unless you got money to burn. Buyer beware!
I bought a pair of Salomon XT-6 ADVANCED on December 23rd (order number: SLNNLEN0026295). I roughly own them for only three months now. I haven’t done any heavy duty outdoor work or even hiked with them yet. Only wearing them casually like any other sneaker.The issue now is, is that there’s a growing hole in the foam/padding near the inner heel area of the left shoe. NOT the back heel area but on the side where the ankle only has soft tissue. This hole is slowly becoming bigger and bigger. I can even feel and touch the hard outside of the shoe from within the shoe. The same thing is also happening with the right shoe where you can see that the fabric and foam are also forming a hole.This is unacceptable after only three months for such an expensive pair of ... MoreI bought a pair of Salomon XT-6 ADVANCED on December 23rd (order number: SLNNLEN0026295).

Really disappointed in the brand and upset about the quality and durability of the shoes.
I’m not gonna lie, I was skeptical about the store like a lot of people who’s reviews I had read on trust pilot because I had never heard about it before, but there were also people on there who said they went with it and they were glad they did. So I decided to go with those people and I am also glad chose to do so.They arrived the day they were supposed to, though later than what I was told but that doesn’t take away from the contents of the delivery which were the shoes themselves. They fit exactly how their supposed to and I wore them out the same day they arrived
