FAQs

Are these boots suitable for wet weather?

While the materials offer some resistance, these boots are primarily designed for urban wear and not intended for heavy rain or wet conditions. Consider treating them with a waterproofing spray for added protection.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer, paying close attention to the UK sizing. It is recommended to measure your foot length for the most accurate fit, as the 'Surplus' and 'Pampa' lines might have slight variations.

Can these boots be worn in warmer weather?

Yes, the organic canvas upper allows for breathability, making them suitable for wear in warmer temperatures, though they are designed for year-round urban use.

What is the main difference between the 'Surplus' and 'Pampa' series for this model?

The 'Surplus' and 'Pampa' designations for this specific model often refer to stylistic variations or slight material differences within the same core design, both rooted in Palladium's heritage.

How should I clean the quilted nylon sections?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing, which could damage the quilting or material.

Is the lateral zip durable?

The lateral zip is designed for durability as part of the boot's construction. Proper care, such as keeping it clean and free of debris, will ensure its longevity.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down to loosen it.

Boots feel slightly tight on the first wear.

Wear the boots around the house for short periods to allow them to break in. You can also try wearing thicker socks during the break-in period.

Canvas shows signs of discoloration.

Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure complete air drying. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
