FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The waxed cotton provides water resistance against light rain and splashes, but they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in deep puddles.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing will damage the wax treatment and the leather detailing. Always hand clean with a damp cloth.
Is the fit true to size?
The Palla Ace series generally follows standard sizing, but it is recommended to wear the type of socks you intend to use with the boots to ensure a comfortable fit.
What is the purpose of the medial zip?
The medial zip is designed to allow you to put on or take off your boots quickly without having to undo the laces every time.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you prefer to use custom orthotics or replace them after extended use.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is sticking or difficult to move
Clear any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth and apply a small amount of graphite or specialized silicone zipper lubricant.
Surface dirt accumulation
Use a soft-bristled brush or a slightly damp lint-free cloth to gently buff away dry dirt.
Interior moisture build-up
Remove the insoles and stuff the boots with newspaper or a cedar shoe tree to absorb excess moisture overnight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last, it is essential to follow proper care protocols. As the upper is crafted from waxed cotton, avoid using standard harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can strip the wax coating and compromise the material's look. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. If the boots become saturated, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the leather or damage the wax finish. The unisex design allows for easy styling with denim, cargo pants, or chinos. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks to maintain comfort, as the sleek fit is designed to hug the foot for stability.
