FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is recommended to clean these leather shoes by hand with a damp cloth to protect the Gore-Tex membrane and the integrity of the leather.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the internal insock is removable, allowing you to swap it for your own orthotic inserts if needed.
Are these suitable for hiking?
They are ideal for light hiking and urban-to-trail transitions due to the Vibram outsole, but they are not intended for technical mountain climbing.
How do I maintain the waterproof feature?
Keep the leather clean and apply a leather-safe waterproof conditioner periodically to ensure the upper remains supple and resistant to water.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The PALLARIDER LO GTX generally fits true to UK standard sizes; however, consider wearing the socks you intend to use daily when trying them on.
What is the purpose of the reflective elements?
The reflective elements are designed to catch light in dark conditions, making the wearer more visible to others in low-light environments.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of stiffness in the leather
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to naturally soften and contour to your foot shape.
Moisture buildup inside the shoe
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks, as the Gore-Tex membrane is waterproof but requires breathable base layers to manage internal foot sweat.
Outsole losing traction
Clean the debris from the tread patterns using a stiff-bristled brush to restore the full grip of the Vibram rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance from your trainers, ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension before your first outing. If you use custom insoles, remove the original Palladium insock to maintain proper interior volume. To care for your leather footwear, wipe away dirt and mud with a damp cloth after use. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack over time. Use a leather-appropriate protective spray to maintain the water-repellent finish on the outer material.
