FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The SP20 Travel Hi is water-resistant to a degree due to its materials but is not fully waterproof. It is best suited for dry to moderately wet conditions. For heavy rain, consider additional waterproofing treatments or alternative footwear.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Palladium or the retailer. These shoes are listed in UK adult sizes. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart.
Can I wear these for hiking?
The SP20 Travel Hi is designed for light travel and urban exploration. While the outsole provides decent grip, they are not specialized hiking boots and may lack the ankle support and ruggedness for challenging trails.
How much do they weigh?
These shoes are specifically designed to be lightweight, making them ideal for travel. The exact weight can vary slightly by size, but they are significantly lighter than traditional boots.
What is the best way to pack these for travel?
Due to their lightweight and somewhat flexible construction, they can be easily packed flat or placed inside other items in your luggage. Avoid heavy compression that could deform the shoe.
Do they offer good arch support?
The shoes provide standard support for casual wear. For individuals requiring significant arch support, using custom or over-the-counter insoles may be beneficial.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially
Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow them to break in and conform to your feet. Gentle flexing of the sole can also help.
Water spots or light dirt marks
Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a slightly damp cloth with a mild soap solution can be used. Ensure to spot test in an inconspicuous area first.
Laces becoming frayed
Replace laces with standard shoe laces of a similar length and material. You can often find replacements at footwear or outdoor stores.
