The XT-6 GORE-TEX is the waterproof build of Salomon's XT-6, listed as a unisex sneaker. Everything structural is shared with the standard version: a synthetic and textile upper, a protective toecap, quickLACE cord closure with a pocket for the lace ends, and a textile lining. The difference is a GORE-TEX membrane laminated inside the upper, which seals the shoe against rain and wet ground while still letting moisture escape from inside, so the XT-6 works through winter rather than only in dry weather.
The platform is the same as well. An EnergyCell midsole handles cushioning in combination with the agileCHASSIS, Salomon's stability and damping structure, and there is a molded OrthoLite sockliner above it. Mud contaGRIP rubber with deep, sharp lugs covers the outsole, a compound built for loose and rugged surfaces. Salomon lists a 10 mm drop and 13 ounces per unit, identical to the non-membrane model. This pair is scheduled to release on August 1, 2026 at 6:00 AM Eastern time.
