FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they are made of breathable cotton, which is excellent for comfort but not intended for submersion or heavy rain.
Are these true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, but if you intend to wear thick socks, you may consider a half-size up.
Can I machine wash these?
Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the specialized TPR sole supports and the structure of the upper.
What is the material of the sole?
The sole is made of TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber), chosen for its lightweight and durable characteristics.
Are these suitable for light hiking?
Yes, they are suitable for light outdoor adventures and well-maintained trails, though they are not designed for technical mountaineering.
Troubleshooting
Material feels stiff upon first wear
This is normal for new trainers; try lacing them slightly looser and wear them for short walks to allow the fabric to soften.
Dirt stuck in sole treads
Use a stiff-bristled brush to clear debris from the TPR outsole to maintain optimal traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Palladium trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors before embarking on long outdoor trips to allow the cotton and sole structure to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the cotton upper. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid fully submerging the trainers in water.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and material stiffening.
- Compatibility: The neutral design pairs well with both utility-style cargo pants and casual denim.
