Full details

Featuring a distinctive foldable cuff design, these boots allow you to transition from a tall boot look to a casual, low-profile style with ease. While the cotton construction offers excellent breathability for warm days, it is worth noting that they are not inherently waterproof, so they may require additional treatment for heavy wet-weather use.

FAQs
Are Palladium Baggy boots waterproof?
No, they are primarily made from cotton canvas. While they are breathable, they will absorb water in heavy rain. Applying a water-repellent spray can offer some protection.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is generally not recommended to machine wash these boots, as the heat and agitation can weaken the adhesive between the sole and the upper.
How does the size run?
Palladium boots generally fit true to size. If you plan on wearing thick wool socks, you might consider sizing up by a half size.
Is the sole non-marking?
Yes, the rubber compound used in Palladium outsoles is designed to be durable and generally safe for indoor gym or residential floor surfaces.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if preferred.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels less comfortable after long use
The included cushioned insole is removable. If it wears down, you can replace it with an aftermarket orthotic insole for renewed support.
Visible stains on the cotton upper
Use a specialized canvas cleaner or a mild mixture of detergent and warm water with a soft cloth. Avoid machine washing as it may damage the rubber bond.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These boots do not require a complex break-in period thanks to the soft cotton construction. To ensure longevity, follow these care steps:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and debris from the canvas upper. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with mild soap and cold water.
- Drying: Always air dry the boots away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the rubber or stiffen the fabric.
- Maintenance: Consider applying a fabric-specific water-repellent spray if you intend to wear them in light rain to help keep the cotton clean and dry.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and ensure the boots are completely dry before putting them away for extended periods.
