FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for hiking?
The PALLARIDER LO TX WPA is engineered for urban exploration and offers excellent grip and waterproofing. For technical hiking trails or extreme conditions, specialized hiking boots are recommended.
How do I clean the PALLARIDER LO TX WPA?
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or drying.
Is the waterproof feature permanent?
The Waterproof Advanced membrane provides durable protection. Like all waterproof technologies, performance can be maintained with proper care and occasional re-application of suitable waterproofing treatments.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the insole is designed to be removable, allowing you to insert your own orthotics or a preferred aftermarket insole for personalized comfort.
Are these shoes considered vegan?
Yes, the PALLARIDER LO TX WPA is constructed using vegan materials.
How does the quick-lace system work?
The system uses an elastic lace and a toggle. Simply pull the toggle to tighten the laces and press the release to loosen them for quick adjustments.
What is the heel height?
The heel height, including the outsole, is approximately 54mm.
Troubleshooting
Laces not tightening effectively
Ensure the toggle is fully engaged. If the laces are worn or frayed, they may need replacement to ensure proper grip within the toggle mechanism.
Reduced water repellency over time
Clean the shoes thoroughly and apply a suitable waterproofing spray designed for synthetic and textile footwear. Allow to dry completely.
Discomfort or rubbing
Adjust the lacing tension for a more even distribution of pressure. Ensure socks are appropriate for the activity. If discomfort persists, consider using the removable insole for added cushioning or an alternative orthotic.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the Vibram® outsole offers superior grip, extreme conditions may still present a risk. Ensure the outsole is free from debris that could impair traction. Break-in period might be needed for optimal grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The PALLARIDER LO TX WPA requires no complex setup. Simply adjust the quick-lace toggle system to your preferred fit. The laces can be tucked into the shoe for a cleaner look.
Compatibility: These shoes are designed for urban exploration and general wear. They are compatible with various casual outfits. The removable insole allows for compatibility with custom orthotics if needed.
Care: To maintain the integrity of the Waterproof Advanced membrane and the materials:
- Cleaning: Wipe the upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials and compromise the waterproofing.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically, you may consider using a waterproofing spray suitable for synthetic materials to reinforce the WPA membrane's performance, especially after deep cleaning.
