The Contagrip outsole provides superior grip and stability due to its aggressive lug pattern and durable rubber compound. This ensures reliable traction on a wide range of surfaces, from loose dirt to rocky trails, enhancing safety and performance.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks designed for your activity. The XT-6 may require a short break-in period; continue wearing for shorter durations to allow adaptation. If discomfort persists, re-evaluate your sizing or consult a footwear specialist.

Inspect the Contagrip outsole for excessive wear on the lugs or any debris (mud, small stones) lodged within the pattern. Clean the sole thoroughly to restore grip. Note that aggressive lug patterns perform best on soft or uneven terrain and may feel less secure on extremely smooth or icy surfaces.

Allow your shoes to air out completely after each use, removing the insoles if possible to promote better airflow. Ensure proper ventilation during storage. For persistent odor, use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight, then shake out thoroughly.
