FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for trail running?

The XT-Whisper trainers are primarily designed for training and general athletic use. While they offer durability, they may not provide the specialized grip and protection needed for technical trail running compared to dedicated trail running shoes.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The trainers are listed for UK size 6. Ensure your foot measurement corresponds to this size. Try them on with your preferred athletic socks. There should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe, and the heel should not slip excessively.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. The harshness of a washing machine cycle can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Hand cleaning with mild soap and water is the preferred method.

What is the main benefit of the XT-Whisper series?

The XT-Whisper series is generally recognized for its combination of durability, comfort, and versatility, making it a reliable choice for various athletic activities and daily wear.

How should I store my trainers when not in use?

Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat. Ensure they are clean and dry before storing to prevent odor buildup or material degradation.

What does 'Nocturne Vision' refer to?

The 'Nocturne Vision' designation often refers to specific design elements or colorways within a product line, typically emphasizing darker colors with subtle reflective or contrasting details for visibility in lower light conditions.

Troubleshooting

Unusual squeaking noise

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning both surfaces, and reinserting it. Ensure the laces are also not overly tight, which can sometimes cause pressure points.

Reduced grip on smooth surfaces

The outsole's grip can diminish over time or if exposed to oily substances. Clean the outsole with water and a brush to remove any embedded debris. If wear is significant, consider replacement.

Discomfort or pressure points

Ensure you have the correct size and fit. Try wearing them with different types of athletic socks. Breaking them in with short periods of wear initially can also help alleviate pressure points.
