FAQs
What type of material is the upper made from?
The upper is made from tough organic cotton canvas with corduroy detailing.
Are these boots waterproof?
The boots are water-resistant due to the canvas material and rubber components, but they are not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately wet conditions.
How do I determine the correct size?
The boots are listed in UK adult sizing. It is recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible, as sizing can vary between brands.
Can I wear these boots in the winter?
These boots are suitable for casual wear in cooler weather but are not designed as heavy-duty winter boots. They do not feature specialized insulation for extreme cold.
What is the warranty period for these boots?
Information regarding specific warranty periods should be checked with the retailer at the time of purchase, as warranties can vary.
Are these boots suitable for hiking?
The Palladium Pampa Michigan boots are suitable for light trails and urban hiking due to their durable outsole and construction, but they are not designed for technical or rugged trekking.
How should I care for the rubber outsole?
Regularly clean the rubber outsole with water and a brush to remove dirt and debris, which helps maintain optimal traction.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight upon first wear
Allow for a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration. Wearing thicker socks can also help stretch the canvas slightly.
Canvas material getting noticeably dirty
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher dirt, a specialized canvas cleaner can be used. Ensure proper drying away from heat.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. While designed for grip, extreme wet conditions may still require cautious walking.
Laces are fraying
Replace the laces with a similar length and material. Palladium offers replacement laces, or standard boot laces can be used.

Care:
- Cleaning the Canvas: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Allow to air dry away from direct heat.
- Protecting the Canvas: Consider using a fabric protector spray suitable for canvas to help repel water and stains. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Outsole Maintenance: Clean the rubber outsole with water and a brush to remove accumulated dirt, which can affect traction.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box, to maintain their shape and protect the materials.
