What is the purpose of the Agile Chassis™ system?

What is the main difference between the XT-4 and XT-6 series?

While both are performance trail shoes, the XT-4 often features a slightly more aggressive tread and chassis design for challenging terrain, whereas the XT-6 is renowned for its balanced performance and comfort, often with GORE-TEX options.

Troubleshooting

QUICKLACE™ system feels too tight or loose

Adjust the lace tension by pulling or loosening the toggle. Ensure the excess lace is secured in the pocket to prevent it from coming undone.

Traction is reduced on slippery surfaces

Clean the Contagrip® outsole to remove embedded dirt or debris that may be hindering grip. Check the outsole for excessive wear.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Ensure the correct size has been selected. Clean the OrthoLite® sockliner if it has become saturated or dirty, allowing it to dry completely.

Upper material appears dirty

Follow the care instructions: use a soft brush for loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for stains. Allow to air dry.
