FAQs
How do I clean the oily leather?
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For deeper cleaning or to remove stains, use a specialized leather cleaner. Always test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Allow boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Will the leather color change significantly?
Yes, the oily leather is designed to develop a unique patina over time. This means the color will subtly darken and change in areas of wear, which is considered a desirable characteristic that adds to the boot's appeal.
Are these boots waterproof?
The oily leather offers some water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. For enhanced protection in wet conditions, we recommend using a waterproofing spray specifically designed for leather.
How do I break in new Palladium boots?
Wear them around the house for a few hours at a time. Gradually increase the duration of wear. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a comfortable fit, not too tight. The leather will naturally conform to your foot shape.
What is the purpose of the contrast stitching?
The contrast stitching is a design element that adds visual detail and highlights the craftsmanship of the boots. It contributes to the overall aesthetic of the Pampa series.
Can I wear these boots in hot weather?
While the leather is breathable, they are designed for year-round wear. In very hot weather, ensure adequate ventilation and consider moisture-wicking socks.
What size UK do these boots come in?
This specific model is available in a UK size 13, and other variants in the Pampa series are available in a range of adult sizes. Please check the product listing for available sizes.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff on first wear.
This is normal for new leather boots. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. The leather will soften with use.
Difficulty zipping up.
Ensure the laces are loosened sufficiently before using the zip. Check that there are no obstructions in the zipper track.
Leather appears dry or dull.
Apply a quality leather conditioner following the product's instructions. This will restore moisture and enhance the leather's appearance.
Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces.
While the rubber outsole offers good traction, always exercise caution on very wet or smooth surfaces. Consider using a traction-enhancing spray if this is a frequent concern.

Care:
- Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that can damage the leather.
