Yes, these shoes feature a PFC-free ePE GORE-TEX membrane, which provides durable waterproof and breathable protection, designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.
The Quicklace™ system is a minimalist and strong lace for one-pull tightening. You pull the lace to achieve your desired tension, lock it with the toggle, and then tuck the excess lace into the lace pocket on the tongue. It allows for quick and easy on-and-off and a secure fit.
While rooted in trail running, the XT-6 GORE-TEX is optimized for "harshest citied conditions" and varied urban terrains. Its Mud Contagrip outsole also makes it suitable for light trails, gravel paths, and other mixed surfaces.
Clean them by removing loose dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution, avoiding harsh detergents. Rinse thoroughly and air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat.
The Agile Chassis System is a technology integrated into the shoe's design, working in conjunction with the midsole to provide enhanced stability and dampening, ensuring a more consistent and comfortable ride on varied surfaces.
While not strictly required, wearing moisture-wicking synthetic or wool socks is recommended. Cotton socks tend to absorb moisture and can make your feet feel damp, even with a waterproof membrane.
While GORE-TEX is waterproof, internal dampness can occur if moisture can't escape. Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks (e.g., synthetic or wool, not cotton), and check that the shoe's upper is not heavily soiled, which can impede breathability. Also, ensure no water is entering from the top (e.g., through the ankle opening in heavy rain).
To adjust tension, pull the lace until snug, then push the toggle down to secure. If too loose, simply pull the lace further. If too tight, press the release button on the toggle and gently pull the toggle away from the shoe to loosen the tension. Practice makes perfect with finding your ideal fit.
Squeaking can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe's sole. Try removing the OrthoLite® insole, cleaning both the insole and the inside of the shoe, and then reinserting it. If the squeaking persists, it might be due to the outsole material on certain surfaces, which is often normal.
