FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The XT-Whisper trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They offer good comfort and traction for walking and everyday use, but lack the specialized cushioning and support required for performance running.
How do I adjust the Quicklace system?
To tighten, pull the toggle down towards the shoe. To loosen, lift the toggle upwards. For removal, lift the toggle fully to release the lace tension.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to preserve the materials and construction.
What type of surfaces are the soles best suited for?
The rubber outsole with its lug pattern is designed for good traction on various urban surfaces, including pavement, concrete, and light gravel.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The XT-Whisper trainers are not waterproof. They are constructed with breathable materials that allow airflow, making them suitable for dry to mildly damp conditions.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is a mix of breathable textile mesh and synthetic materials, providing both ventilation and durability.
How should I store these trainers when not in use?
Store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are clean and dry before storing to prevent odor or material degradation.
Troubleshooting
Quicklace system feels too tight or too loose
Adjust the toggle by sliding it up to loosen and down to tighten. Ensure the lace is centered for even pressure distribution.
Shoes feel stiff initially
This is normal for new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration to break them in. The materials will soften with use.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean of mud and debris. While designed for grip, extreme wet conditions may still require caution. Check tread wear for signs of significant degradation.
Discomfort in specific areas
Re-adjust the Quicklace system for a more personalized fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape.
