FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for deep snow?
While the Pallarider Thins WP+ is insulated and waterproof, it is a low-shoe design and not intended for deep snow where moisture could enter through the top collar.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and allow the shoes to air dry naturally.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if needed.
Can I wear these in the summer?
These shoes are specifically insulated with Thinsulate for cold weather, so they may be too warm for comfortable wear in summer temperatures.
Do I need to spray them with a waterproof protector?
The shoes already feature a Waterproof Plus membrane, but applying a leather-safe water repellent spray can help maintain the surface leather's appearance and shed water more effectively.
Troubleshooting
Water penetrating the shoe
Ensure the laces are tied snugly to prevent water from entering through the collar and check that the leather is not cracked; re-apply a leather-safe waterproof treatment if necessary.
Outsole losing traction
Clean the tread patterns with a stiff brush to remove pebbles or dried mud that may be blocking the grip.
Interior odor
Remove the insoles to air out separately and use a shoe-specific deodorizing spray or baking soda sachets overnight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are low shoes, there is no break-in period required beyond typical leather softening. To maintain the integrity of the WP+ waterproof membrane and the leather, avoid machine washing. Instead, wipe away surface mud with a damp cloth after use. If the leather becomes heavily soiled, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner to maintain its suppleness and water resistance. Ensure you store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack over time. Use a shoe tree or stuffed paper to help them maintain their shape when not in use.
