FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Ace City Shell Lo's outsole?

The outsole features a variety of meticulously crafted rubber textures, each designed for a unique purpose, providing optimal and versatile grip on diverse urban surfaces.

How durable is the micro ripstop upper?

The micro ripstop upper is designed to be highly resilient and resistant to tearing, making it suitable for rugged urban environments and daily wear.

Are these shoes suitable for hiking?

While built for urban exploration and offering good traction, they are primarily designed for city environments and not intended for strenuous off-road hiking trails.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The materials offer some resistance to light moisture, but they are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, additional waterproofing treatment is recommended.

How should I clean the unique outsole textures?

Use a brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use water and a mild soap with a brush, then rinse and allow to air dry. Ensure the textured areas are thoroughly cleaned.

What size should I order if I'm unsure?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Palladium. If you are between sizes, it is often recommended to size up for a more comfortable fit, especially considering the durable upper.

What is the intended aesthetic of the Ace City Shell Lo?

The design blends city sleekness with military ruggedness, creating a versatile look suitable for the modern urban explorer.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially

This is normal due to the durable materials. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in gradually. Walking in them will help them conform to your foot.

Traction seems uneven on certain surfaces

The outsole features varied textures for different grip needs. Ensure debris is cleared from the sole's texture. The unique design might require a slight adjustment in your gait for optimal performance on specific surfaces.

Water ingress through the upper

While the ripstop upper offers some resistance, these are not waterproof boots. For heavy rain, consider a waterproofing spray specifically designed for footwear materials, reapplying as needed based on product instructions.
