FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for heavy mountain hiking?
While highly durable, the XT-4 is designed as an agile trail trainer; for extreme technical alpine climbing, consider specialized mountaineering boots.
Is the XT-4 OG GTX machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the GORE-TEX membrane and the shoe's structural integrity. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.
Does this shoe provide good arch support?
Yes, it features a stable chassis and foam midsole designed to offer support and cushioning for long-duration activities.
Are these trainers true to size?
Most users find them to be true to standard UK sizing, though the fit is performance-oriented and snug.
Can I wear these in summer?
The GORE-TEX lining is waterproof, which may be warmer than non-waterproof trainers; however, it remains breathable for general outdoor use.
What does the 'OG' in the name stand for?
OG stands for 'Original', indicating that the design honors the classic aesthetics and construction of the archive-era models.
Troubleshooting
Waterproofing seems less effective after heavy use
Clean the outer mesh to remove dirt and grime that can clog the pores of the fabric, then consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray.
Foot discomfort during initial wear
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly and allow for a gradual break-in period by wearing the shoes for shorter intervals first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK sizing. Because the XT-4 is designed for performance, the fit is snug; if you prefer to wear thick hiking socks, consider testing for volume compatibility. To maintain the shoes, avoid machine washing. Instead, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent damage to the waterproof materials and adhesives.
