Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
The `Quicklace` system allows for rapid and precise adjustment. To tighten, pull the lace firmly upwards until snug. To loosen, press the release button on the lace locker and pull the locker away from the shoe. Ensure the excess lace is stored in the lace pocket on the tongue to prevent snagging.
Compatibility
Originally developed for ultra-distance trail running in 2013, the XT-6 is compatible with a wide range of activities from serious athletic pursuits to everyday casual and urban wear. It performs well on varied terrain including dirt paths, gravel, and urban hard surfaces.
Care
- Cleaning: For general cleaning, remove insoles and laces. Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water to gently scrub the mesh and `TPU` surfaces. Avoid harsh detergents or hot water.
- Drying: Air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose to direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or dryers), as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Maintenance: Regularly check the `Contagrip TA` outsole for embedded debris and clean as needed to maintain optimal traction. Inspect the `Quicklace` system for wear and tear, though it is designed for durability.
