FAQs
Are these boots suitable for heavy rain or snow?
The boots are made primarily from organic cotton and rubber. While they offer some protection, they are not waterproof and are best suited for dry to moderately wet conditions. For heavy rain or snow, consider waterproof footwear.
How do I clean the printed graphics?
Avoid harsh scrubbing directly on the printed graphics. Clean the printed areas gently with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as this may damage the print.
What does 'vegan' mean in relation to these boots?
Vegan means that no animal products or by-products were used in the construction of the boots. This includes the materials for the upper, lining, insole, and outsole.
Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?
The insoles in the Palladium Pampa x Demodog Boots are not designed to be removable. While you may be able to place a very thin orthotic over the existing insole, it may affect the fit and comfort.
How does the sizing run for these boots?
The sizing for Palladium boots is generally considered true to size. However, it's always recommended to check the specific size chart provided by Palladium and consider your typical shoe size and any socks you plan to wear.
What is the heel height?
The heel height, including the outsole, is approximately 25mm (or about 1 inch).
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff initially
New boots, especially those made of canvas and rubber, can feel stiff. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in gradually. This will allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied
Ensure the laces are the correct type for the eyelets. If they are slipping, try a double knot. For a more secure tie, consider replacing the laces with a different material or texture.
Dirt or scuffs on the off-white upper
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a small amount of mild soap with water and a soft brush or cloth, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Inconsistent fit across different Palladium models
While the Pampa fit is generally consistent, individual foot shapes vary. If the fit is not right, consider the lacing adjustments. If issues persist, consult the sizing chart or consider alternative sizes.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris from the organic cotton upper. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Outsole: The rubber outsole can be cleaned with water and a brush to remove mud or dirt.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
