FAQs
Are Palladium Pampa Hi boots waterproof?
No, they are made from cotton canvas, which is breathable but not waterproof. You can treat them with a water-repellent spray, but they are not intended for deep puddles or heavy rain.
Are these boots vegan-friendly?
Yes, the Pampa Hi is 100% vegan. No animal products are used in the production, including the adhesives.
Can I remove the insole?
Yes, the Pampa Hi features a removable EVA cushioned insole, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if preferred.
How do I wash them?
We recommend hand-washing with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the rubber bonding.
Are these good for hiking?
They are suitable for light walking on maintained paths or city exploration, but they lack the ankle support and weatherproofing required for technical mountain hiking.
Do they run true to size?
Most users find that Palladium boots fit true to size, but if you intend to wear thick winter socks, consider sizing up by a half size.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff initially
Wear the boots for short intervals indoors with thick socks to help the canvas conform to your foot shape.
Canvas becoming stained
Spot clean with a gentle laundry detergent and a soft-bristled brush, then rinse carefully.
Slipping on very smooth, polished surfaces
Ensure the treads are free of embedded debris or gravel, which can sometimes reduce the effective contact area of the rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Pampa Hi boots remain in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:
- Breaking-in: These boots require minimal break-in time due to the flexible canvas, but wear them with medium-weight socks for the first few outings to prevent friction.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can warp the rubber or shrink the cotton canvas.
- Waterproofing: While the canvas is robust, applying a fabric-safe water repellent spray can help protect against minor splashes and stains.
- Compatibility: These boots pair easily with denim, cargo pants, or chinos. Because of their slim profile, they fit well under most pant hems.
