FAQs

Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?

The adjustable buckles and straps offer a degree of customization, making them potentially suitable for wider feet. We recommend trying them on for a precise fit.

Can I wear these in the rain?

While the suede protector can offer some resistance, suede is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain as water can stain and damage the material.

How do I clean mud off the suede?

Allow the mud to dry completely. Once dry, gently brush it off with a suede brush. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions.

What is the main difference between these and regular Palladium boots?

The Dunelite Riviera Suede are sandals designed for warmer weather, focusing on lightweight comfort and flexibility with an open design. Palladium boots are typically closed footwear offering more protection and support, often for colder or more rugged conditions.

Do these sandals run true to size?

Based on general feedback, they tend to run true to size. However, individual fit can vary. Referencing the size chart and considering the unisex nature is recommended.

Can the insoles be removed?

The insoles are generally not designed to be user-removable. They are integrated for cushioning and support.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is designed to be lightweight and cushioned, inspired by the Pampa outsole, providing flexibility for comfort.

Troubleshooting

Suede color appears faded or dull

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and color. For persistent dullness, consider a suede revitalizer product.

Straps feel too long or too short

Adjust the position of the buckles on the straps. Ensure the straps are threaded correctly through the buckle mechanism for maximum adjustment range.

Sandal feels slippery on smooth surfaces

Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. For significantly slippery conditions, consider adding a thin layer of rubber sole grip enhancer (use with caution).

Suede is stained by water

Allow the sandal to dry naturally. Once dry, use a suede brush to try and lift the water mark. Reapply a suede protector once fully dry.
