FAQs
What material are the Palladium Pallacup Flame OG trainers made of?
The uppers are made of 100% nubuck (a type of suede), the lining is 100% polyester, the cushioning is 100% polyester, and the sole is 100% polyurethane with a gum rubber outsole.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and urban style, inspired by retro sportswear. They are not intended for high-impact sports or athletic training.
How do I clean the nubuck and suede parts?
Use a specialized nubuck/suede brush for general cleaning and a suede eraser for marks. For tougher stains, use a dedicated nubuck cleaner, and always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid soaking the shoes.
What does 'Flame OG' refer to?
'Flame OG' refers to the distinctive flame-shaped detailing on the quarter of the shoe and 'OG' signifies 'Original', indicating a design inspired by classic, original Palladium styles.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the gum rubber sole offers some grip, nubuck and suede are not inherently waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. Using a waterproofing spray designed for suede and nubuck can offer some protection.
What is the heel height?
The trainers have a flat heel, designed for comfortable everyday wear and stability.
What is the purpose of the gum rubber outsole?
The gum rubber outsole is chosen for its durability and excellent grip on various urban surfaces, providing increased traction and stability.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff on first wear.
This is common with new leather and suede. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. Using a leather conditioner can also help soften the material.
Suede appears matted or dirty.
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. For stubborn dirt, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner according to product instructions.
Laces are difficult to keep tied.
Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. Try a different lacing knot, such as a double knot, for a more secure hold. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.
Slight color transfer from detailing.
This can sometimes occur with new dyes. Ensure the shoes are dry and avoid contact with light-colored materials until any excess dye has diminished. A spray protector might help seal the color.
