Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, ensure you have selected your correct UK size, as the performance fit of the XT-6 GTX is precise. When putting them on, utilize the integrated lacing system to achieve a secure, customized lockdown. To maintain the integrity of the Gore-Tex membrane, avoid using harsh detergents when cleaning; instead, gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material degradation. Regularly inspect the outsole for trapped debris to ensure optimal traction is maintained over time.
