FAQs

Are the Palladium Pallarider Lo Wpa truly waterproof?

Yes, they feature a Waterproof Advanced membrane designed to provide breathable protection against water and moisture.

How do I adjust the quick-lace system?

To tighten, pull the toggle upwards. To loosen, press the small release button on the toggle while guiding the laces.

Can I wear these in snow?

While they offer waterproof protection, they are not insulated for extreme cold. They are best suited for damp, cool conditions rather than heavy snow.

What type of surfaces does the Vibram® outsole perform well on?

The Vibram® outsole is engineered for superior grip and durability on a variety of urban surfaces, including wet pavement, concrete, gravel, and dirt paths.

How should I clean the shoes if they get muddy?

Use a damp cloth with a mild soap and water solution and a soft brush to clean the exterior. Rinse with clean water and allow them to air dry naturally.

What is the main advantage of the low-cut design?

The low-cut design offers a more agile feel and a contemporary, casual aesthetic that pairs well with various outfits for urban exploration.

Do these shoes require any break-in period?

Most users find the Pallarider Lo Wpa comfortable right out of the box. However, a short break-in period of a few wears may enhance the fit and feel.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Adjust the quick-lace toggle system. Pull the toggle to tighten and press the release button to loosen. Ensure the laces are evenly distributed.

Water seems to be seeping in.

Check for any damage to the shoe's membrane or seams. Ensure the tongue is properly seated to provide a waterproof barrier. Reapply a waterproofing spray if the treatment has worn off.

Traction is reduced on certain surfaces.

Clean the Vibram® outsole with water and a brush to remove any embedded dirt or debris that may be affecting grip. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn.

Exterior material appears scuffed or dirty.

Use a damp cloth and mild soap solution with a soft brush for cleaning. Allow to air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Pallarider Lo Wpa requires no assembly. Simply adjust the quick-lace toggle to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the laces are properly threaded through the eyelets for optimal performance.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for general urban wear and light outdoor activities. They are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. Their waterproof nature makes them suitable for various weather conditions but not for prolonged submersion in water.

Care: To maintain the waterproof capabilities and appearance:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Never use high heat, as it can damage the waterproof membrane and materials.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically apply a waterproofing spray specifically designed for footwear with technical membranes to refresh the water-repellent properties. Always test the spray on an inconspicuous area first.
