FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The SP20 Travel Hi is not designed to be waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but are not suitable for heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.
Can I wear these for light hiking?
Yes, they are suitable for light trails and walking on well-maintained paths due to their durable outsole and comfortable design. However, they do not provide the robust support or protection required for strenuous hiking.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Palladium or the retailer. Generally, UK sizes are standard, but comparing your foot measurement to their guide is recommended for the best fit.
What is the main advantage of the SP20 outsole?
The SP20 outsole provides a modern aesthetic update and offers reliable traction for urban exploration and everyday wear.
How does the SP20 Travel Hi differ from other Palladium boots?
The SP20 Travel Hi is specifically designed to be lightweight and packable, making it ideal for travel. It features a sneaker-like construction with a high-top silhouette, differing from more robust, traditional Palladium boot styles.
Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?
The fit can vary, but the SP20 Travel Hi generally offers a standard width. Loosening the laces provides some adjustability. If you have significantly wide feet, trying them on in person is advisable.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with medium-thickness socks for a short period to allow the materials to stretch slightly. If they remain uncomfortable, consider exchanging for a half-size larger if available.
Difficulty lacing
Ensure the laces are not tangled and are threaded evenly through the eyelets. Loosen the laces significantly before putting the shoe on, then tighten gradually for a comfortable fit.
Slight color transfer on socks
This can occasionally happen with new dyed fabrics. It is recommended to wear socks that match or are darker than the shoe color initially, or to wash dark socks separately.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
While the SP20 outsole offers good traction, wet surfaces can reduce grip for any footwear. Exercise caution and walk at a moderate pace on wet ground.
