FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Pallarider Legacy Lo shoes are made from organic cotton twill and feature a Vibram® outsole. While they offer some resistance to light moisture, they are not waterproof and are best suited for dry to moderately wet urban conditions.
What is the main benefit of the Vibram® outsole?
The Vibram® outsole is renowned for its exceptional durability, providing superior traction and grip on a variety of surfaces, which is ideal for navigating urban environments.
How should I care for the organic cotton twill upper?
Clean the organic cotton twill upper with a soft brush for dry dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for stains. Avoid harsh chemicals and machine washing.
What is the 'Pallarider Legacy' series known for?
This series is inspired by Palladium's original Pampa boot, blending military heritage with modern urban style, focusing on durable construction and timeless design.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
These shoes can handle light rain due to their construction, but they are not designed for heavy downpours. For significant rain, waterproof footwear is recommended.
How does the sizing run?
Palladium footwear generally runs true to size, but it's always recommended to check the specific size guide and consider trying them on if possible, especially since footwear fit can be subjective.
Are these suitable for hiking?
While the Vibram® outsole offers good grip, these low-top shoes are primarily designed for urban terrain and daily wear, not for extensive hiking on rugged trails.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially
This is common with new, durable footwear. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to break in and mold to your feet.
Dirt buildup on Vibram® outsole
Use a stiff brush or an old toothbrush to clean out debris from the sole's tread patterns. A damp cloth with mild soap can be used for more stubborn dirt.
Minor scuffs on cotton twill upper
For light scuffs, try gently rubbing the area with a clean eraser or a slightly damp cloth. For deeper marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
Laces fraying
Replace the laces with a similar durable material. Palladium offers replacement laces for their footwear.

Compatibility: Designed for adult wear, these low shoes are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. They are best suited for urban terrain and general daily activities. Avoid use in extreme outdoor conditions where waterproof footwear is required.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains on the organic cotton twill, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive soaking.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Wipe the Vibram® outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Ensure all cleaning agents are mild.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Protection: Consider using a fabric protector spray suitable for cotton twill to enhance resistance to dirt and light moisture, though this will not make them waterproof.
