Troubleshooting
Laces won't tighten securely.
Ensure the toggle is fully engaged. If the lace has frayed, it may need replacement. Check for debris in the lace lock mechanism.
Feet feel wet despite Gore-Tex.
The Gore-Tex membrane is waterproof, but the shoe itself can allow water ingress through the collar if submerged. Check for any tears or damage to the membrane. Ensure socks are not saturated, which can mimic leaks.
Slight discomfort or rubbing.
Allow the shoes a break-in period. Try adjusting the lacing system for a more personalized fit. Consider wearing thicker or different types of socks.
Traction seems reduced on certain surfaces.
Clean the Contagrip® outsole of any mud, gravel, or debris. The rubber compound can also lose some grip when exposed to extreme temperatures or certain oils.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for a wide range of activities, from trail running and hiking to everyday wear. They are compatible with various sock types, though moisture-wicking socks are recommended for optimal performance.
