FAQs
What material is the Pampa Hi made from?
The upper is made from 14 oz 100% cotton canvas, and the lining is 6 oz 100% cotton canvas.
Are these shoes suitable for hiking?
The Pampa Hi is designed for urban adventures and general outdoor use. They offer good grip and durability for light trails, but are not technical hiking boots.
How do I clean the canvas upper?
Spot clean the canvas with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals to maintain the material's integrity.
What is the insole made of?
The insole is a cut EVA with heel support and a polyester surface for comfort.
Are these trainers true to size?
Generally, the Palladium Pampa trainers fit true to size. However, if you are between sizes, it's often recommended to consider trying the larger size for more comfort, especially with thicker socks.
Can I wear these in rainy weather?
The canvas upper is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are not recommended for heavy rain. Consider using a water-repellent spray suitable for canvas, but test it in an inconspicuous area first.
What is the primary benefit of the rubber outsole?
The primary benefit is exceptional grip and traction on all surfaces, providing stability and confidence during wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel slightly stiff initially.
This is common with new canvas shoes. Wear them for short periods to break them in. The EVA insole and soft lining will conform to your foot over time.
Canvas upper shows dirt or scuffs.
Spot clean the affected area gently with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For tougher stains, a soft brush may be used carefully. Always allow to air dry.
Laces are dirty or worn.
Remove the laces and hand wash them with mild detergent. If laces are significantly worn, they can be easily replaced with standard flat cotton laces.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces.
While the rubber outsole provides good grip, performance may be reduced on very wet or slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean for optimal traction.
