Troubleshooting
Laces difficult to adjust
Ensure the lace pocket is clear. If laces feel stiff, they may need a gentle clean and conditioning, or consider replacing the Quicklace™ system if significantly worn.
Discomfort after initial wear
The XT-6 may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly for your foot.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
While designed for varied terrains, extreme wet conditions can affect grip. Ensure the outsole is clean. The grip may also diminish as the tread wears down over time.
Material discoloration
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean gently with mild soap and water as per care instructions.
