FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for deep snow?
While they feature a waterproof membrane and mudguard, they are designed as low-cut shoes and are best suited for light snow and slush rather than deep, heavy snowdrifts.
Does the sizing run true to standard Palladium boots?
The fit is similar, but because of the internal Thinsulate insulation, some users prefer to go up half a size if they plan on wearing thick winter socks.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the waterproof membrane and the leather upper. Clean by hand using a damp cloth only.
Is the outsole slip-resistant?
Yes, the VIBRAM rubber outsole is specifically designed to provide high-traction grip on a variety of urban and outdoor surfaces.
What is the primary function of the Pallaguard?
The Pallaguard is a reinforced mudguard that provides an extra layer of protection against water, mud, and debris at the base of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Outer leather appears dull or loses water repellency
Clean the leather with a damp cloth, allow it to dry completely, and apply a high-quality leather conditioner or specialized water-repellent spray.
Feeling of dampness inside the shoe after heavy rain
Ensure the shoes are laced securely to close the tongue gap and check that the inner lining is dry; if internal moisture is due to sweat, allow the shoes 24 hours to air out properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your Pallarider Thins WP+ shoes, ensure you verify your fit as the insulation can make the interior feel snugger than unlined Palladium models.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe away loose mud or dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth immediately after outdoor use to prevent abrasive damage.
- Leather Protection: Apply a leather-safe waterproofing spray periodically to maintain the integrity of the outer material.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Never place them directly on radiators or heat sources, as excessive heat can damage the waterproof membrane and cause the leather to crack.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods.
