FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is recommended to hand clean them to avoid damaging the Gore-Tex membrane and adhesive components.
Can I use these for winter hiking?
They provide excellent protection against moisture, though they are not insulated, so wear appropriate socks for cold temperatures.
What does Gore-Tex mean for my feet?
It means the shoes are both waterproof and breathable, keeping external water out while allowing sweat to evaporate.
Are these true to size?
The fit is consistent with standard sizing, but if you plan on wearing thick hiking socks, consider trying them on with those socks first.
Do I need to break these in?
While lightweight, the structure may take a few hours of wear to mold perfectly to your foot shape.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels damp after heavy rain
Ensure your socks are moisture-wicking; Gore-Tex is breathable but can trap moisture if the wrong socks are worn.
Outsole losing traction
Clean the tread patterns thoroughly with warm water and a brush to remove embedded grit or mud.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Palladium footwear, it is essential to follow proper care protocols. After hiking in muddy or dusty conditions, use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose debris. For cleaning the upper, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemical detergents that could degrade the Gore-Tex membrane. Air dry the shoes naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from cracking. To maintain the waterproof efficacy, consider applying a specialized Gore-Tex-compatible DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray if you notice water no longer beads off the surface.
