Product Information
Full details
The Palladium Pampa Hi Boots are designed for adult men who prioritize a blend of authentic military-inspired aesthetics and everyday comfort for urban exploration. These boots feature a durable washed canvas construction and a signature lugged rubber sole that provides reliable traction on city pavements, though users should note that the canvas material is best suited for dry or mild weather rather than heavy rain or rugged trekking.

FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
No, the Pampa Hi is made of canvas. While it is durable, it is not waterproof and should be avoided in heavy rain.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the boots feature a cut-out EVA sockliner that can be removed if you prefer to use your own orthotic insoles.
Are these suitable for hiking?
They are designed for urban environments. While they have good grip, they lack the technical support and waterproofing needed for serious mountain hiking.
How do I determine my size?
The Pampa Hi series follows standard UK sizing. If you typically wear a specific UK size in other athletic sneakers, that size should fit well.
What is the weight of the boot?
These boots are constructed from lightweight 14 oz. canvas, making them significantly lighter than traditional leather work boots.
Can these be machine washed?
We recommend hand-cleaning only to preserve the rubber bonding and branding labels from premature wear caused by machine agitation.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel slightly stiff initially
Canvas material often requires a short 'break-in' period; wear them for short durations indoors to soften the fabric.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot if the flat laces feel slippery, or replace with wider cotton laces for more friction.
Surface marks on the canvas
Use a gentle fabric eraser or a damp sponge with a drop of clear detergent to spot-clean the affected area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your Pampa Hi boots is straightforward: simply loosen the laces to your comfort preference and secure them once the boot is on. These boots are generally true-to-size, though if you prefer wearing thick socks, you may want to ensure you have chosen the correct UK size.
To keep your boots in top condition:
- Cleaning: Wipe away loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper stains, use a mild soap and a damp cloth; avoid submerging them fully in water to protect the structural integrity of the canvas and rubber.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can warp the rubber or cause the fabric to fade.
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place to prevent the canvas from developing mildew.
