Full details
The Palladium Offlite Evo Gtx is designed for urban explorers and commuters who require reliable footwear that withstands unpredictable weather conditions.

FAQs
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature integrated Gore-Tex technology to provide a fully waterproof barrier against rain and puddles.
Can I wear these for hiking?
While the Vibram outsole offers great grip, these are designed as urban low-shoes and are best suited for paved surfaces rather than rugged mountain trails.
How should I clean the Gore-Tex membrane?
Use a soft brush to remove dirt, then wipe with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or bleach.
Are they true to size?
They generally follow standard sizing; however, since they have a structured, protective fit, we recommend wearing your regular size.
Does the colour fade easily?
The materials are chosen for durability, but avoid prolonged direct sun exposure to maintain the color vibrancy over time.
Do I need to treat them with spray?
The Gore-Tex lining provides the waterproofing, but a light DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray on the exterior fabric can help water bead off more effectively.
Troubleshooting
Moisture buildup inside the shoe
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks rather than pure cotton, which traps perspiration.
Squeaking on smooth floors
This is often caused by surface moisture or debris; wipe the outsole with a clean cloth to restore grip.
Stiff fit during initial wear
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors over a few days to allow the materials to flex and contour to your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Offlite Evo Gtx in top condition, avoid machine washing, which can damage the waterproof membrane. Instead, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap to remove city grime. Ensure the shoes are air-dried away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, as excessive heat can degrade the adhesive and Gore-Tex lining. For optimal performance, pair these with moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool socks to maximize the effectiveness of the breathable waterproof membrane.
