FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

The boots are designed to be water-resistant due to the nubuck material and construction, offering protection in light rain or snow. However, they are not fully waterproof and prolonged submersion in water should be avoided. Applying a water-repellent spray is recommended.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the product's sizing chart and measure your child's foot. It's often recommended to allow a small amount of growing room, but ensure the fit is not too loose to avoid discomfort or tripping.

Can these boots be worn in mild weather?

While they offer excellent warmth, they might be too warm for mild or hot weather due to the synthetic wool lining. They are best suited for autumn and winter conditions.

How often should I reapply the water repellent?

It's generally recommended to reapply water and stain repellent spray every few months, or after significant cleaning, to maintain optimal protection for the nubuck material.

What is the main difference between this and the standard Pampa boot?

The Pampa Hi Zip WL features a synthetic wool lining for added warmth and a side zipper for easier wear, making it more suitable for winter conditions and younger children compared to the standard Pampa model.

Can these boots be machine washed?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the nubuck upper and synthetic wool lining. Spot cleaning and gentle hand care are advised.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight

Ensure the correct size is being worn. If slightly snug, wearing thinner socks might help. The boots may also loosen slightly with wear.

Zipper is stiff

Gently try to work the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant can help smooth the action.

Nubuck material looks dull or dirty

Use a nubuck brush to restore the nap. For stains, refer to the care instructions for cleaning nubuck.

Feet feel cold despite the lining

Ensure the socks being worn are appropriate for winter conditions and are not overly thick, which could impede circulation. Verify the boots are the correct size and not too tight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Nubuck Upper: Use a soft brush or a specialized nubuck eraser to gently remove dry dirt and marks. For tougher stains, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid soaking the material. Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
  2. Cleaning the Lining: The synthetic wool lining can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth. Ensure it dries thoroughly to prevent odors.
  3. Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for nubuck or suede to help protect the boots from the elements and make cleaning easier. Reapply periodically.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a breathable bag, to maintain their shape and protect the material.
