FAQs
Are these shoes truly waterproof?
Yes, they feature a WP+ membrane designed specifically to prevent water entry while maintaining moderate breathability.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the Pallarider Thins WP+ comes with a removable insole that can be taken out for cleaning or swapped for custom support.
What is the best way to clean the outsole?
Use a stiff-bristled brush and mild soap to remove mud and grit from the tread patterns of the Vibram rubber.
Does the leather require special treatment?
It is recommended to use a water-repellent spray formulated for leather to maintain the upper's resistance to stains and moisture.
Are these suitable for deep snow?
While they provide excellent warmth and grip, they are low shoes; consider pairing them with gaiters if you anticipate deep snow to prevent it from entering the collar.
Troubleshooting
Moisture buildup inside the shoe
Ensure you are using moisture-wicking socks, as the high level of insulation can trap foot perspiration if non-breathable fabrics are used.
Stiff leather surface
Apply a high-quality leather cream or conditioner to restore suppleness to the material.
Reduced traction
Check the Vibram outsole for trapped debris or mud; clean the tread with a brush to restore full grip capabilities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Palladium shoes last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Setup: Adjust the round laces through the D-ring eyelets to achieve a snug fit, using the top hooks to secure the collar around the ankle.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water despite the waterproof membrane, as this can affect the leather's texture over time.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to become brittle.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the upper supple and maintain the integrity of the waterproofing treatments.
