FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The XT-4 OG is designed for durability and breathability, but they are not marketed as fully waterproof.
Can these be used for heavy hiking?
They are ideal for light hiking and trail walking, though dedicated mountaineering may require more specialized footwear.
How do I determine my size?
The trainers use standard UK sizing; refer to the manufacturer's size guide for measurements if you are between sizes.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The XT-4 OG has a performance-oriented fit; individuals with very wide feet may find them snug and should consider sizing up.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of stiffness during initial wear
This is common due to the technical support chassis; continue wearing the shoes for shorter intervals until the materials soften.
Debris getting stuck in the outsole
Use a soft brush to remove pebbles or dried mud from the grooves of the tread to maintain optimal traction.
Laces feel loose over time
Ensure the quick-lace mechanism is properly tucked into the designated lace pocket to prevent snagging and tension loss.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your XT-4 OG trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear them for short durations indoors before embarking on long outdoor treks to allow the material to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth after outdoor use to remove dust or mud. Avoid soaking the shoes in water, which can compromise the adhesive components.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the upper materials from fading or becoming brittle.
- Compatibility: These trainers pair well with athletic socks of medium thickness, which provide the best fit within the shoe’s internal structure.
