FAQs
Are these trainers truly waterproof?
No, the Palladium Pampa Hi Zip Organic Trainers are not waterproof. They are designed for general wear in dry conditions and may not offer protection against heavy rain or wet environments.
What does OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification mean for these shoes?
This certification means that every component of these trainers has been tested for harmful substances, ensuring that the product is safe for human health and poses no environmental risks.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
It is recommended to consult the Palladium size chart available on their website or retailer's product page. Measuring your foot length in centimeters or inches and comparing it to the chart is the most accurate method.
Can these trainers be worn by individuals who follow a vegan lifestyle?
Yes, the Palladium Pampa Hi Zip Organic Trainers are designated as vegan, meaning they are made without any animal-derived materials.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is approximately 2.5cm (1 inch), providing a slight lift without being overly high.
How durable is the recycled rubber outsole?
The recycled rubber outsole is designed for durability and traction, suitable for everyday urban use. While eco-conscious, it is engineered to withstand regular wear and tear.
Can the insole be replaced?
The EVA insole is built into the shoe for cushioning. While it is not designed for easy removal, it may be possible to insert thinner aftermarket insoles if desired for additional arch support or custom fit, provided they do not compromise the shoe's structure.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping up or down
Ensure laces are slightly loosened before using the zip. Check the zip track for any debris that might be causing obstruction. If the zip feels stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil can help lubricate it.
Sizing feels too tight or too loose
Try adjusting the laces for a more custom fit. If the shoe consistently feels uncomfortable, consider using thicker socks for a tighter fit or thinner insoles for more room. Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements.
Odors developing inside the shoes
Ensure the shoes are aired out regularly. Use baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Washable insoles or shoe deodorizer inserts can also help maintain freshness.
Scuffs or marks on the textile upper
For light marks, try gently wiping with a damp cloth. For more persistent stains, use a specialized textile cleaner or a mild soap solution with a soft brush. Always test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
