FAQs
Are these boots suitable for hiking?
Yes, the PALLARIDER ZIP MIX boots are designed with a Vibram® outsole for excellent traction and durability, making them suitable for rugged trails and general hiking.
How do I clean the boots?
Clean the surface with a damp cloth. Use a specialized leather conditioner for the nubuck leather parts and allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to replace it with your preferred orthotics or insoles for enhanced comfort or support.
What is the main advantage of the internal zipper?
The internal zipper provides quick and effortless on-and-off functionality, saving time while maintaining a secure fit established by the laces.
What materials are used in the construction?
The boots feature an upper made from 83% textile and 17% leather (nubuck), a polyester spring, a polyester insole, and a rubber outsole.
What is the heel height?
The heel and outsole height is 54mm.
Are these boots waterproof?
The boots are designed for durability and offer some protection against the elements. For heavy rain or prolonged wet conditions, consider applying a waterproofing treatment suitable for leather and textile materials.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the laces are not obstructing the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Boots feel tight after initial wear.
Wear the boots with medium-weight socks for a few hours each day to allow them to break in. Adjust lace tension for a more comfortable fit.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the Vibram outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. The outsole is designed for grip, but extreme conditions may still present challenges.
Leather appears dry or cracked.
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for nubuck leather to moisturize and protect the material. Avoid over-conditioning, which can affect breathability.

Care:
- Leather and Textile Care: Use a damp cloth to clean the surface. For the leather components, a specialized leather conditioner can help maintain suppleness and prevent drying. Avoid harsh chemicals.
