FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, you should not machine wash these shoes. Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior.
Can I wear these in deep snow?
While they are waterproof and insulated, these are low-top shoes and are best suited for light snow, slush, or cold rain rather than deep, high-accumulation snow.
What is the benefit of the Vibram outsole?
Vibram outsoles are world-renowned for providing excellent grip, traction, and durability on various surfaces, including wet and slippery ground.
Do I need to break them in?
Yes, as with most premium leather footwear, there may be a short break-in period where the leather adapts to the shape of your foot for maximum comfort.
Are these shoes suitable for summer?
Due to the Thinsulate insulation, these shoes are designed specifically for warmth and will likely be too hot for summer temperatures.
How do I maintain the waterproof membrane?
Keep the exterior clean and treat the leather with a protective spray to ensure water beads off the surface effectively.
Troubleshooting
Water penetrating the shoe surface
Re-apply a specialized leather waterproofing spray to ensure the membrane and outer leather remain sealed.
Stiffness in the leather after storage
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to soften the material and help it regain its flexibility.
Outsole losing traction due to debris
Use a soft-bristle brush to remove dirt or ice lodged in the tread patterns of the Vibram sole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Palladium shoes last through multiple winter seasons, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of premium leather, avoid machine washing. Instead, use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt after each use. If the shoes become soaked, remove the insoles and allow them to air dry at room temperature; avoid placing them directly next to heaters, as excessive heat can crack or harden the leather. For ongoing maintenance, apply a leather conditioner or water-repellent spray specifically designed for waterproof membranes to maintain the integrity of the WP+ technology. Ensure the laces are securely tightened to optimize the support provided by the padded collar.
