FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The boots are water-resistant due to the materials used, but not fully waterproof. They can handle light rain and splashes, but prolonged immersion may lead to water penetration.
How do I clean the nubuck leather parts?
Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a specialized nubuck cleaner and conditioner is recommended. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
Can I wear these boots in hot weather?
The boots are designed for all-terrain use and feature a blend of materials. While comfortable, the breathability might be less than that of fully synthetic or heavily perforated footwear in extreme heat.
What is the benefit of the internal zipper?
The internal zipper allows for very quick and easy on-and-off functionality, saving time and effort compared to traditional lacing systems.
Is this boot suitable for hiking?
Yes, the Vibram outsole provides excellent traction and durability, making them well-suited for hiking on various trails.
What does 'Pallarider Zip Mix' mean?
'Pallarider' refers to the Palladium series, 'Zip' indicates the zipper feature, and 'Mix' denotes the blend of recycled nylon and nubuck leather materials used in construction.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Palladium, considering your usual UK shoe size. The unisex design means they are suitable for both men and women.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the zipper track is free of dirt and debris. Apply a small amount of wax or a zipper lubricant along the track.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur with new boots. Try walking on different surfaces, or ensure all laces and parts are properly seated. If it persists, check for any loose stitching or components.
Water seeping through materials
While water-resistant, the boots are not fully waterproof. For extended exposure to heavy rain or submersion, consider using a waterproofing spray specifically designed for mixed materials like nubuck and nylon.
Discoloration of nubuck leather
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Use a nubuck eraser for scuffs and a dedicated nubuck cleaner for more significant marks, followed by a conditioner.
