FAQs
What material is the Pampa Oxford made of?
The Pampa Oxford features a washed canvas upper and lining, with a durable molded rubber outsole and an EVA-cushioned footbed.
Are these shoes suitable for hiking?
While the rubber outsole offers good traction, the Pampa Oxford is primarily designed for urban exploration and casual wear. They may not provide sufficient ankle support or ruggedness for serious hiking.
How do I clean the washed canvas?
Gently brush off dirt and use a damp cloth with mild soap and water for stains. Avoid machine washing and harsh chemicals. Always air dry.
What does 'EVA-cushioned footbed' mean for comfort?
EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate) is a foam material that provides excellent cushioning and shock absorption, making the shoes comfortable for extended periods of walking or standing.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
The canvas material offers limited water resistance. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Heavy rain may soak through the canvas.
What is the main advantage of the 'hugging heel cup'?
The hugging heel cup is designed to provide a secure and stable fit around the heel, enhancing overall comfort and support while walking.
Are there other color options available for the Pampa Oxford series?
The Pampa Oxford series may be available in other colors. Please check the product listings for alternative colorways.
Troubleshooting

This is common with new canvas shoes. Wear them for short periods to break them in, or try wearing thicker socks initially.
Canvas shows minor discoloration after cleaning.
Ensure you are using mild soap and water and avoid over-saturating the material. Always air dry away from direct heat.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
