Full details
These Palladium Pampa Hi Re-Vegan boots are designed for adults seeking all-day comfort and sustainable style. The key benefit is unparalleled support that eliminates foot aches, thanks to recycled materials and sturdy rubber soles. A potential caveat is that the insole is not removable. They feature a blend of recycled polyester, polyurethane, PU, and wood fibre for the upper, organic cotton for the lining, and EVA with polyester for the insole, all on a 100% rubber outsole. The combination of laces and a zip closure ensures ease of use, making them a practical and eco-conscious choice for daily wear.

FAQs
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The Pampa Hi Re-Vegan boots offer a standard fit. While the lacing system allows for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them snug. It's recommended to check specific width measurements if available or try them on if possible.
Can I remove the insole to use my own orthotics?
No, the insole is integrated into the boot's construction and is not designed to be removed.
How do I clean the recycled polyester and polyurethane upper?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Always allow to air dry.
Are these boots genuinely waterproof?
The upper is described as water-resistant, meaning it can handle light splashes and brief exposure to moisture. They are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
What is the primary benefit of the 'Re-Vegan' designation?
The 'Re-Vegan' designation indicates that the boots are made without any animal-derived materials and often incorporate recycled components, aligning with ethical and environmental considerations.
How durable is the 100% rubber outsole?
The 100% rubber outsole is designed for durability, providing good traction and resistance to wear and tear from regular use on various surfaces.
What is the heel height of these boots?
The heel height is 25 mm (approximately 1 inch).
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping up the boot
Ensure the laces are slightly loosened around the ankle area before attempting to zip. Check for any debris caught in the zipper track.
Reduced water resistance over time
While the upper is water-resistant, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may require reapplication of a suitable waterproofing spray designed for textile and synthetic materials. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Slight stiffness during the first few wears
This is normal for new boots. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration to allow the materials to flex and conform to your feet.
Discoloration on the upper material
This can sometimes occur with recycled materials. Gently clean with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight exposure, which can cause fading.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These boots require no specific setup beyond initial wear to break them in. Ensure laces are adjusted for a comfortable fit before utilizing the zip closure for easy access.
Compatibility:
- Footwear: Designed for adult unisex wear. Available in various UK sizes.
- Orthotics: Due to the non-removable insole, compatibility with custom orthotics may be limited.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the recycled materials.
- Drying: If the boots get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can degrade the materials.
