FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The 'Gtx' in the product name indicates Gore-Tex technology, which provides water resistance and breathability. They are designed to keep your feet dry from external moisture while allowing sweat vapor to escape.
How do I adjust the Quicklace™ system?
Pull the laces evenly to tighten. To loosen, pull the small tab located near the laces. Tuck the excess lace ends into the pocket on the tongue to prevent them from snagging.
What type of terrain are these trainers best for?
These trainers are optimized for trail running and hiking on varied terrain, including dirt paths, rocky trails, and moderately muddy conditions. The Contagrip® sole offers excellent grip on these surfaces.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable, allowing you to replace them with custom orthotics or different insoles if desired.
How should I clean my Xt-6 Gtx Trainers?
Gently brush off loose dirt. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for cleaning the upper. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing.
What is the main benefit of the Contagrip® sole?
The Contagrip® sole is designed to provide exceptional grip and durability on a wide variety of surfaces, ensuring stability and confidence during outdoor activities.
Are these trainers suitable for everyday casual wear?
While comfortable and stylish, their technical design and specialized sole are best suited for outdoor activities like trail running and hiking. For purely casual use, they might be more robust than necessary.
Troubleshooting
Laces won't tighten or loosen properly
Ensure the Quicklace™ mechanism is clean and free of debris. Check that the laces are not tangled within the system. If persistent, contact customer support.
Discomfort or hot spots during wear
Verify the lacing is adjusted correctly for your foot shape. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Consider if the shoe size is correct for your foot length and width.
Traction is poor on specific surfaces
Clean the Contagrip® sole to remove embedded debris. Be aware that no sole offers perfect grip on all surfaces; adjust your stride and pace accordingly.
