FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
The XT-Slate Advanced are designed for light trails and general active use. For technical trail running with significant elevation changes or rough terrain, a shoe specifically designed for that purpose might be more appropriate.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should feel comfortably snug.
Can I wear these in the rain?
These trainers offer some water resistance due to their construction, but they are not fully waterproof. They are suitable for light rain or wet surfaces, but prolonged immersion in water is not recommended.
What is the primary benefit of the XT-Slate Advanced design?
The primary benefit is the balance of stable support, comfortable cushioning, and reliable traction, making them a versatile choice for various daily activities and light outdoor excursions.
How often should I clean my trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or mud. Regular spot cleaning will help maintain their appearance and performance.
What materials are used in the XT-Slate Advanced?
The trainers are constructed with a combination of durable synthetic materials and breathable textiles, along with a robust rubber outsole for grip.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing laces with a grippier material if the issue persists.
Feet feel uncomfortable after initial wear
Adjust the lacing to find a more comfortable pressure distribution. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, the fit may not be suitable.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Clean the outsole to remove any mud or debris that might be impairing traction. Be aware that all outsoles have limitations on extremely slick surfaces.
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system. For tightness, loosen the laces. For looseness, tighten them, focusing on specific areas of the foot.
