FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Pallarider Legacy boots are made with organic cotton and are not inherently waterproof. While they offer some resistance to light moisture, they are not designed for heavy rain or wet conditions. Consider treating them with a waterproofing spray for enhanced protection.
How do I choose the right size?
It is recommended to refer to the Palladium size chart provided on the product page. Given they are boots, consider if you prefer wearing thicker socks. Trying them on in-store or measuring your foot length is the most reliable method.
Can I machine wash these boots?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, construction, and sole of the boots.
What type of socks are best for these boots?
Medium-weight or thicker socks are often recommended for comfort and to aid in the break-in process, especially during the initial wears. However, the breathable cotton upper also accommodates thinner socks for warmer weather.
Are these boots suitable for hiking?
These boots are designed for urban environments and daily wear. While they have a durable Vibram® outsole, they lack the specific support and waterproofing typically required for challenging hiking trails.
How long does the Vibram® outsole typically last?
Vibram® outsoles are known for their durability and longevity. With proper care and regular use on urban terrain, they can last for several years before significant wear becomes apparent.
What does 'Pallarider Legacy' signify?
The 'Pallarider Legacy' name signifies a collection that draws inspiration from Palladium's heritage, particularly its military-inspired designs, while adapting them for contemporary urban use with modern materials and styling.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
Wear the boots for short periods around the house to break them in. Natural materials will mold to your foot shape over time.
Soles seem slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the Vibram® outsole is clean. While designed for grip, extremely polished or wet surfaces can still pose a challenge for any footwear. Check for foreign debris embedded in the tread.
Fraying or loose threads on the cotton upper
Carefully trim any loose threads with scissors. For minor fraying, a small amount of fabric glue can be applied discreetly.
Discoloration on the cotton upper
This can occur with prolonged sun exposure or contact with certain materials. Try spot cleaning with a mild detergent and water, then allow to air dry. Consider using a fabric protector to prevent future discoloration.
