How do I clean the rubber mudguard?

Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the internal footbed is typically removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if needed.
Are these suitable for heavy hiking?

How should I store them?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme heat, which can damage the waterproof leather.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff during initial use
Wear them indoors for short periods with thick socks to help the leather soften and mold to your foot shape.
Difficulty putting on the boots
Ensure you are holding both the front and rear pull tabs; using a shoehorn can significantly ease the entry process until the elastic loosens.
Outer leather appears dull
Clean the surface thoroughly, allow it to dry completely, and apply a high-quality leather cream to restore the natural luster.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Palladium Trooper Chelsea WP boots, follow these guidelines. When first putting them on, use a shoehorn if the elastic feels stiff; this protects the heel counter. These boots are compatible with standard daily wear, from denim to trousers. For care, wipe the leather with a damp cloth after exposure to salt or dirt. Apply a leather conditioner every few months to prevent cracking, and ensure the boots air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can compromise the leather and waterproof seal.
