FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The XT-6 features a mesh upper designed for breathability. While durable, it is not categorized as fully waterproof.
Can I use these for daily walking?
Yes, their stable platform and EVA cushioning make them comfortable for daily wear, though they are technically engineered for high-performance trail use.
How do I determine my size?
The XT-6 typically fits true to size, but the technical construction may feel snugger than lifestyle sneakers. If you prefer extra room, consider the standard performance fit.
What surfaces are they best for?
They are best for soft, rugged, and uneven surfaces, though the versatile design performs capably on mixed-terrain including pavement.
How should I store them when not in use?
Store them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the material from drying out or degrading.
Troubleshooting
Laces feeling too tight across the midfoot
Adjust the speed lacing system tension across individual eyelet zones to distribute pressure more evenly.
Outsole losing traction
Check for mud or debris impacted between the lugs and clean with a stiff brush to restore the Contagrip performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best performance, ensure the laces are adjusted to accommodate the volume of your foot; the XT-6 utilizes a distinct lacing system that is designed to stay secure throughout long runs. To maintain the life of your trainers, remove excess mud after use with a soft-bristled brush. If the shoes become heavily soiled, hand wash them in lukewarm water using mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the adhesive bonds and the integrity of the TPU film. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
