Troubleshooting
Foot feels cramped or pressured
Verify if you have upsized correctly; if the shoe is indeed too small, consider thinner socks or swapping for a half-size larger pair.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the XT-6 utilizes a specific fit profile, it is highly recommended to wear your preferred hiking socks during your initial fitting to account for the slightly smaller sizing. To clean the shoes, use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove dried mud and dust from the upper materials. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the integrity of the specialized synthetic fabrics. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to preserve the shape and material flexibility.
