FAQs
How do I best clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Gently scrub the mesh and rinse with clean water. Allow to air dry completely.
What is the purpose of the SensiFit technology?
SensiFit cradles the foot from the midsole to the lacing system, providing a secure, snug, and personalized fit all around the foot.
Is the Mud Contagrip outsole suitable for all terrains?
The Mud Contagrip is specifically designed for maximum grip on soft, hard, wet, or dry ground. While versatile, it excels in muddy or loose conditions.
Can I replace the OrthoLite insole?
Yes, the die-cut OrthoLite insole is removable and can be replaced with a compatible aftermarket insole if desired for a different feel or support.
How do I maintain the Quicklace system?
Keep the Quicklace cord and eyelets clean. Avoid pulling excessively hard on the cord when tightening or loosening. Store with laces slightly loose to prevent undue stress.
What is the benefit of the Agile Chassis Skeleton?
The ACS provides stability and support on uneven terrain, helping to guide the foot and reduce fatigue during long distances or challenging walks.
Are these shoes waterproof?
This specific model, the XT-4 OG, does not feature a waterproof membrane like GORE-TEX. The mesh upper offers breathability but is not inherently waterproof.
Troubleshooting
Laces not tightening evenly
Ensure the Quicklace system is clean and free of debris. Try re-threading the lace through the eyelets to ensure smooth tension distribution.
Reduced traction after use
Clean the Mud Contagrip outsole with water and a brush to remove embedded mud or debris. Inspect the tread for excessive wear.
Discomfort or pressure points
Adjust the Quicklace tension, ensuring it's snug but not overly tight. Consider removing and reinserting the OrthoLite insole, or try with different socks.
Mesh upper appears dirty or stained
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, a soft-bristled brush can be used with caution.
