FAQs
Are these boots suitable for heavy rain?
The boots are designed with a waterproof outer material, making them suitable for light to moderate rain and wet conditions. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours or submersion, additional waterproofing treatment and caution are advised.
What is the primary benefit of the material composition?
The boots feature a blend of recycled polyester, recycled polyurethane, and wood fibre in the outer shell, along with an organic cotton lining. This composition aims to reduce environmental impact while providing durability and comfort.
How do I clean the white color without staining?
For the white color, use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently remove dirt. Avoid using colored cleaning products. For tougher marks, a mild soap diluted in water can be used sparingly, followed by rinsing with a clean, damp cloth. Always air dry.
Can I wear these in cold weather?
These ankle boots offer basic protection. For very cold weather with snow or ice, consider adding thermal socks or looking for insulated footwear. The current design focuses more on water resistance and general comfort.
What is the warranty period for these boots?
Please refer to the retailer's specific warranty policy for details on the Palladium Pampa Ankle Boot.
Are the insoles removable?
The EVA insoles are designed for comfort and may be removable depending on the specific construction, allowing for the insertion of custom orthotics if needed. Check inside the boot to confirm.
What does 'first cleanliness material' refer to?
This refers to the material used for the insole or the layer directly beneath the foot, which is 8% polyester and 92% EVA cut. It provides cushioning and support.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff initially.
This is common with new footwear. Wear them for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.
Water seeping through seams.
Check seams for any damage. While designed to be waterproof, constant high pressure or prolonged submersion may lead to minor seepage. Ensure any waterproofing treatments are up-to-date.
Slight odor after wear.
The organic cotton lining is breathable, but like any footwear, odors can develop. Remove the insoles and allow the boots to air out completely. Using foot powder or odor-absorbing inserts can help.
Traction feels reduced on very wet surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. Reapply a waterproofing treatment to the upper materials, which can sometimes help maintain the grip characteristics of the sole by preventing excessive water absorption.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: If the boots become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources, as this can damage the materials.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically apply a suitable waterproofing spray designed for footwear with mixed materials to maintain the water-resistant properties of the outer shell. Follow the product's instructions for application.
- Lining Care: The organic cotton lining can be spot-cleaned if necessary. Ensure it dries completely before wearing.
