FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Pampa SP20 Hi Tech trainers feature a cotton upper which is breathable but not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or light-weather conditions.
Can I use these for long-distance hiking?
While they are capable of light outdoor adventures, they are designed primarily for urban utility and casual use, rather than technical long-distance hiking.
How do I maintain the white color?
Regularly wipe down the soles and gently brush off loose dirt from the cotton upper after each use to prevent buildup.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The unisex design accommodates various foot widths, but if you have particularly wide feet, you may find the standard fit firm initially as the cotton breaks in.
Can I replace the insoles?
The trainers are designed with a standard insole, but you can typically replace them with generic orthotic inserts if additional arch support is needed.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt marks on the white cotton fabric
Use a specialized fabric cleaner or a mix of warm water and a small amount of mild soap with a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the affected areas.
Laces becoming too tight or restrictive
Adjust the tension across the eyelets starting from the bottom, ensuring even pressure distribution before tying your knot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Palladium trainers last, begin by breaking them in with short walks to allow the cotton upper to contour to your feet. These trainers are standard UK sizing; verify your fit using a brannock device or by comparing with your existing footwear.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Spot clean the cotton upper with a soft brush and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing to preserve the integrity of the adhesive and fabric.
- Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the cotton to shrink or the soles to warp.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup within the fabric.
