FAQs
Are the Palladium Baggy Michigan boots truly vegan?
Yes, the Palladium Baggy Michigan boots are advertised as vegan, meaning they are constructed without any animal-derived materials or by-products.
How should I care for the organic cotton canvas?
Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. Allow to air dry naturally. Using a fabric protector spray can help maintain the material's condition.
Can I remove the insole for my own orthotics?
No, the insole is not designed to be removable. The internal construction is a Strobel construction, and the insole is integral to it.
What is the purpose of the 'baggy' collar?
The baggy collar is designed to be foldable. You can wear it up for more ankle support and protection, or fold it down for a more casual, relaxed look.
Are these boots waterproof?
The boots are made from organic cotton canvas and rubber. While they offer some resistance to light moisture, they are not fully waterproof and are best suited for dry or moderately wet conditions.
What is the heel height?
The heel height, including the outsole, is approximately 25mm.
What material is the lining made of?
The lining material is 100% cotton.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with the socks you typically use. The organic canvas may require a short break-in period. You can also try loosening the laces or using a boot stretcher if needed.
Canvas shows signs of wear or discoloration.
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For persistent marks, consult a specialized canvas cleaner. Regular application of a suitable fabric protector can help prevent future staining.
Laces fraying or breaking.
Replace the laces with a new pair of round nylon laces of similar length. Palladium offers replacement laces, or you can find compatible ones from most shoe retailers.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of mud or debris. The pattern provides grip, but extreme wetness or polished surfaces may reduce traction. For added grip, consider aftermarket sole grips if necessary.

- Sole Maintenance: Clean the rubber sole with water and a brush. Ensure it is free from debris that could affect grip.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can warp the materials.

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box, to maintain their shape and protect them from dust.
