FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
No, they are made from organic cotton canvas, which is breathable but not waterproof. They are best for dry or mildly damp conditions.
Are these boots truly vegan?
Yes, the Pampa Hi Army series is made using 100% vegan materials, excluding animal-derived products.
How do I choose the correct size?
These boots follow standard UK sizing for unisex fit. It is recommended to choose your typical sneaker size, but check the provided size chart if you are between sizes.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these boots, as the agitation and heat can damage the rubber bonding and the canvas structure.
What is the purpose of the pocket on the ankle?
The mini-patch pocket is primarily for style and adds to the military/utilitarian aesthetic of the design.
Are these suitable for long-distance hiking?
While durable for city streets, they are designed as lifestyle boots and do not provide the specialized ankle support or shock absorption required for long-distance hiking on uneven trails.
Troubleshooting
Canvas becoming stained or dusty
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and spot clean with a gentle detergent solution; do not machine wash.
Laces coming untied frequently
Replace the standard cotton laces with waxed laces for a more secure grip, or double-knot your current laces.
Boots feel stiff initially
Canvas material softens with wear. If necessary, wear the boots for short periods indoors to allow the material to conform to your feet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Pampa Hi Army boots last, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud or dust from the canvas. For deeper stains, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the boots, as excess water can affect the adhesive.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the canvas to fade or the rubber to crack.
- Compatibility: These boots pair exceptionally well with denim, cargo pants, or casual chinos. Given their unisex sizing, ensure you consult the size guide carefully to align your UK size with the specific fit of this series.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place and use a shoe tree or stuffed paper to help the boots maintain their shape when not in use.
