FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the waterproof membrane and the leather upper. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended.
Does the Thinsulate insulation make the shoe run small?
Due to the insulation, some users find the fit slightly more snug. If you prefer thicker socks, consider this when selecting your size.
Can I wear these in deep snow?
While they are waterproof and insulated, these are low shoes. They are best for light snow or slush; deep snow may enter over the top of the ankle.
What is the purpose of the honeycomb heel print?
The honeycomb print on the heel is reflective, which helps increase your visibility to drivers and others in low-light conditions.
How should I dry the shoes if they get soaked?
Remove the insoles, stuff the shoes with dry newspaper or a moisture-absorbing cloth, and let them air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Water entering the shoe
Ensure the D-ring eyelets are fully tightened and the tongue is properly positioned; inspect the leather for cracks that may need conditioning.
Stiff leather feel
Use a high-quality leather conditioner to soften the material and perform short walks to gradually break in the upper.
Decreased traction
Clean the Vibram outsole grooves of any compacted mud, stones, or debris using a stiff brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Palladium footwear, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: After exposure to mud or dirt, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can crack the leather.
- Leather Care: Apply a leather-safe water repellent or conditioner periodically to maintain the suppleness of the upper material and preserve its water-resistant properties.
- Lacing: Use the D-ring eyelets to achieve a secure fit. Ensure the round laces are tightened evenly across the bridge of the foot to avoid pressure points.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry area. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before placing them in a storage container to prevent odors or material degradation.
