Product Information
Full details
The Palladium Offrunner Stride WP+ is a versatile, unisex trainer designed for adults who demand performance in both urban environments and light outdoor settings. Its primary benefit is a waterproof construction that keeps feet dry in unpredictable weather, making it an excellent choice for daily commuters and casual explorers. However, users should note that as a technical waterproof shoe, it prioritizes weather protection and structured support over the high-ventilation characteristics found in standard mesh sneakers.

FAQs
Are these shoes truly waterproof?
Yes, the 'WP+' designation indicates an integrated waterproof membrane designed to keep feet dry in rain and wet conditions.
Are these suitable for long-distance hiking?
While durable and capable of handling light trails, they are designed primarily for urban-to-light-outdoor use rather than technical high-mountain hiking.
How do I determine my size?
These follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual trainer size; if you wear thick hiking socks, consider if you prefer a roomier fit.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended, as machine washing can damage the waterproof lining and the structural integrity of the shoe. Use manual cleaning methods.
Is the sole slip-resistant?
The outsole is designed for improved traction on varied surfaces, but caution should always be exercised on extremely slippery or icy surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Moisture buildup inside the shoe
This is often due to internal sweat buildup. Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks to help the footwear regulate temperature.
Stiff feel during initial wear
The protective materials require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations indoors before taking them on longer excursions.
Mud stuck in the outsole tread
Use a soft-bristled brush to clear the tread patterns once the mud has dried to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Palladium Offrunner Stride WP+, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the shoe is laced snugly across the instep to allow the waterproof features to work correctly without gapping.
- Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth after exposure to mud or salt. Avoid submerging the shoes in deep water for extended periods.
- Drying: Always air-dry at room temperature. Never place these shoes on direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the waterproof membrane.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent material degradation. Periodically check the outsole for debris to maintain traction performance.
