FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for heavy hiking?
While they feature a high-grip Vibram outsole suitable for trails, they are designed as low shoes and may not offer the ankle support of a dedicated high-top hiking boot.
Can I remove the insocks?
Yes, the insocks are removable, allowing for cleaning or the use of custom medical insoles.
Is the leather waterproof?
The leather is protected by the Gore-Tex technology integrated within the shoe to ensure total waterproof performance.
How do I maintain the reflective heel print?
Avoid scrubbing the honeycomb print with abrasive brushes; gently clean the area with a damp, soft cloth.
Are these shoes true to size?
They generally follow standard sizing; however, since they are leather, they may feel snug at first before conforming to your foot shape.
Can I wear these in summer?
Yes, but be aware that the waterproof Gore-Tex membrane is designed to keep moisture out and may run warmer than standard non-waterproof mesh sneakers.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after long wear
Check if the laces are overtightened or if the thickness of your socks is causing restricted circulation.
Stains appearing on leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner applied to a soft cloth to gently buff out the area.
Moisture buildup inside
Ensure the shoes are air-dried completely between wears; if the insock is damp, remove it to expedite the drying process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Palladium PALLARIDER LO GTX shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines: 1. Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors before embarking on long treks to allow the leather to soften. 2. Cleaning: Wipe away mud or debris with a damp cloth; avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents. 3. Leather Care: Use a dedicated leather conditioner periodically to prevent drying or cracking. 4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can warp the leather or degrade the waterproof membrane. 5. Insock Replacement: If you use orthotics, remove the existing insock to maintain proper volume inside the shoe.
