FAQs
Are these boots truly waterproof?
The boots are made from organic cotton canvas, which offers some water resistance but is not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. For heavy rain, waterproof boots are recommended.
How do I determine the right size?
These are unisex boots. Consult the Palladium size chart and measure your foot length in centimeters or inches. It's often recommended to try them on if possible, or consider your usual shoe size and refer to reviews for fit guidance.
Can the collar be worn up and down?
Yes, the 'Baggy' design includes a feature allowing the collar to be worn folded down for a different look, or pulled up for more ankle coverage and warmth.
What is the main advantage of the rubber outsole?
The signature rubber outsole is designed to provide durable grip and stability on a variety of surfaces, making the boots suitable for both urban environments and light outdoor use.
What kind of socks are best with these boots?
Mid-weight socks are generally recommended for comfort and a good fit with the unisex sizing. The choice can also depend on the weather and desired fit.
How do I clean mud or dirt from the canvas?
Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For wet mud, let it dry first, then brush it off. Stubborn stains can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap, followed by air drying.
Is the corduroy collar comfortable?
Yes, the reversed corduroy collar is designed to add a touch of refinement and provide comfortable padding around the ankle area.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or loose
Adjust lacing to find a secure, comfortable fit. Consider using thicker or thinner socks depending on the fit. If the issue persists across sizes, consult the brand's sizing chart and compare with your foot measurements.
Canvas material seems stiff
Wear the boots for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Walking in them will naturally soften the canvas over time.
Difficulty folding the collar
Ensure the collar is completely unfastened from any internal loops if applicable. Gently fold it down; it may require a few wears to become more flexible.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. For increased performance in very wet conditions, consider a canvas-specific waterproofing treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These boots require no specific setup beyond ensuring they fit correctly. Once out of the box, they are ready to wear.
Compatibility:
The Baggy Michigan Boots are designed as unisex footwear. They are compatible with a wide range of casual and outdoor apparel.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning Canvas: For general cleaning, use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid soaking the canvas.
- Corduroy Collar: Gently wipe the corduroy collar with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing that could damage the texture.
- Rubber Components: Clean the rubber toecap and outsole with a damp cloth or brush. Ensure they are dry after cleaning.
- Drying: Air dry the boots away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
- Waterproofing (Optional): While the canvas offers some resistance, consider using a fabric protector spray suitable for canvas if frequent exposure to wet conditions is expected. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
