FAQs
Are these boots truly vegan?
Yes, the Palladium Baggy Michigan boots are constructed using vegan-friendly materials throughout.
How do I adjust the 'baggy' collar?
The collar can be folded down to reveal the corduroy lining for a different look and added warmth, or worn up for a more traditional boot style. Secure it as desired.
What is BCI cotton?
BCI stands for Better Cotton Initiative. It's a global program aimed at making cotton production more sustainable and ethical, ensuring better environmental and social practices.
Can I replace the insole?
No, the insole is not designed to be removable. If you require custom orthotics, you may need to check for compatibility with the existing insole or consider professional fitting.
Are these suitable for heavy rain?
These boots are made from organic cotton canvas and are not waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but are not recommended for prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions.
How should I store the boots when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place. Using a shoe bag or the original box can help protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
What is the heel height?
The heel height, including the outsole, is approximately 25mm.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
The organic canvas may require a break-in period. Wear the boots for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure you are tying a secure knot. Double-knotting can help prevent laces from loosening during activity.
Dirt accumulation on canvas
Use a dry, soft brush to remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution and allow to air dry completely.
Outsole grip seems reduced
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any mud, dirt, or debris that may be affecting traction.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the organic cotton canvas. For tougher stains, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and water. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris.
- Laces: If laces become dirty, they can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap, then air-dried.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to maintain their shape and prevent dust accumulation.
- Water Resistance: While the canvas offers some protection, these boots are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submergence in water. Consider using a fabric protector spray suitable for canvas for added water repellency.
