FAQs
What materials are the Pallacup Flame Lth trainers made from?
These trainers feature an upper made from a combination of premium leather and suede, with a rubber outsole and a molded PU sockliner for comfort.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?
The Pallacup Flame Lth are designed as lifestyle and casual wear sneakers. While comfortable for walking, they are not intended for intense athletic activities or sports.
How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner or eraser can be used. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While the leather and suede offer some protection, they are not waterproof. It is recommended to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Applying a waterproofing spray can offer additional protection.
What is the main inspiration behind the Pallacup Flame Lth design?
The design is inspired by Palladium's retro sports heritage from the 1970s and 1980s, featuring iconic archive designs and a distinctive flame detail.
How do I choose the right size?
It is recommended to refer to the Palladium size guide available on the product page or retailer website. Consider trying them on if possible, as sizing can vary between brands and models.
What does 'Lth' stand for in the product name?
'Lth' typically stands for Leather, indicating that leather is a primary material used in the construction of the shoe's upper.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing or cracking
Ensure the shoes are conditioned regularly. Avoid over-tightening laces, which can cause stress points. Allow shoes to dry naturally if wet.
Suede losing its texture
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. Protect suede areas with a suitable waterproofing spray, especially in damp conditions.
Discoloration from water exposure
Wipe away excess water immediately and allow to air dry. Minor water stains on leather may fade over time or with conditioning. For suede, allow to dry completely before brushing.
Sole becoming detached
This is a rare manufacturing defect. If it occurs shortly after purchase, contact the retailer. For longer-term issues, consult a professional shoe repair service.
