Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot

Reduced traction on wet surfaces

Check the outsole for lodged debris or mud buildup; clean the lugs thoroughly to restore the grip pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance from your XT-6 trainers, start by confirming your size; because these trainers run small, you may need to order a half or full size larger than your standard shoe size. When using them, ensure the lacing system is adjusted to provide a secure fit across the midfoot. For care, keep your trainers clean by wiping them down with a damp cloth after muddy trail runs to prevent grit from degrading the upper material. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents, as this can affect the integrity of the adhesive and cushioning materials.
