Product Information
Full details
The Palladium Offlite Evo Mix Gtx is designed for active adults who navigate both urban environments and light outdoor trails. Its primary benefit is the combination of a breathable Gore-Tex waterproof membrane and a rugged Vibram outsole, providing reliable weather protection and traction in variable conditions. One caveat to consider is that the athletic, technical design may not suit formal workplace dress codes, making these best suited for casual, travel, and adventure-focused settings.

FAQs
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature a Gore-Tex membrane, which is a high-performance waterproof and breathable layer designed to keep feet dry.
Can I wear these for long-distance hiking?
They are ideal for light hiking and urban exploration. For extreme, multi-day mountain expeditions, we recommend a more specialized hiking boot.
How do I determine my size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing. We recommend checking your size against your current comfortable sneakers.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
We strongly advise against machine washing as it can damage the structural integrity and the Gore-Tex waterproof properties.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Outer fabric looks stained or dirty
Clean the surface with a soft-bristle brush and lukewarm water. Do not submerge the shoes fully.
Feeling damp inside after heavy rain
Ensure the shoes are properly laced to prevent water entry from the top collar and check that the Gore-Tex membrane has not been punctured by sharp debris.
Outsole losing grip
Check the tread for embedded stones or mud buildup. Clean the outsole thoroughly to restore the contact surface of the Vibram rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Palladium shoes last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after every trip. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh detergents that may damage the waterproof treatment.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause materials to crack or lose shape.
- Waterproofing: While the Gore-Tex lining is internal, applying a periodic fabric-safe water-repellent spray to the exterior can help maintain the shoe's appearance and prevent water saturation in the outer fabric.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup inside the lining.
