Full details
The Palladium Pallarider Lo Track is designed for the adult urban adventurer seeking a blend of style and outdoor performance. Its key benefit is the versatile design, suitable for city streets and light outdoor exploration, complemented by a durable Vibram® outsole for reliable traction. A potential caveat is that while rugged, they are low-top shoes and may not offer ankle support for strenuous off-road activities.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The PALLARIDER LO TRACK is water-resistant due to its materials and construction but not fully waterproof. The suede component requires protection from heavy rain and prolonged exposure to moisture.
What is the primary advantage of the Vibram® outsole?
The Vibram® outsole is renowned for its exceptional durability, superior grip and traction on diverse surfaces, and resistance to abrasion, ensuring a longer lifespan and reliable performance.
Can I wear these for serious hiking?
These shoes are ideal for light trails and urban exploration. For strenuous or technical hiking that requires significant ankle support, a high-top boot would be more appropriate.
How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the Palladium sizing chart, paying close attention to the UK sizing. As these are unisex, consider if you need to adjust based on typical men's or women's sizing conventions.
What kind of socks are best to wear with these?
Any comfortable socks will work. For extended wear or outdoor activities, moisture-wicking socks made from wool blends or synthetic materials are recommended for comfort and blister prevention.
How should I care for the suede material?
Regularly brush off dry dirt. For stains, use a suede-specific cleaner and brush. Protect from excessive moisture and allow to air dry naturally if they become wet.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The fit can vary. While designed as unisex, it's recommended to check customer reviews regarding fit for wider feet or try them on if possible. The materials do offer some flexibility.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears discolored or stained.
Use a dedicated suede cleaner and a suede brush according to the product instructions. For persistent stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces.
Ensure the Vibram® outsole is clean from dirt and debris. While designed for traction, extreme wetness on smooth surfaces can still pose a slipping hazard. Dry thoroughly after exposure to moisture.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow them to break in. The materials will adapt to the shape of your foot over time.
Laces are difficult to keep tied.
Ensure laces are securely knotted. Consider using a double knot or replacing the laces with ones that offer better grip.
