Product Information
Full details
The Palladium Palla Ace trainers are ideal for style-conscious adults seeking a blend of classic heritage and modern comfort in a low-cut silhouette. These sneakers feature premium organic cotton canvas and a signature reinforced outsole, offering excellent durability for daily wear; however, because they utilize a flat vulcanized rubber sole, they may not provide the high-arch support needed for long-distance running or intense athletic training.

FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adults. If you prefer to wear thick socks, some users find sizing up by a half size more comfortable.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash your Palla Ace trainers. The mechanical action can damage the glue bonds and the rubber protective toecap.
Are these suitable for vegan lifestyles?
Yes, the Palla Ace Canvas Organic series is made with organic cotton and rubber, making it a suitable choice for those looking for non-animal derived footwear.
Does the rubber toecap scuff easily?
The rubber is designed to be highly durable and protective. While it may show scuffs over time, these can usually be cleaned off with a damp cloth or a magic eraser.
Can I add my own orthotic insoles?
Yes, the insoles in the Palla Ace trainers are removable, allowing you to easily substitute them with custom orthotics for better support.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on canvas
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dust, then spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
Canvas color fading
Avoid prolonged direct exposure to intense sunlight and use only gentle fabric cleansers without harsh bleaching agents.
Soles feeling too slippery when new
The rubber soles can have a slight factory finish; wearing them on dry, rough pavement for a few hours will naturally scuff the surface and improve grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Palladium trainers maintain their appearance and structure, keep the following care tips in mind:
- Initial Protection: Apply a fabric-safe water and stain repellent spray before first use to keep the canvas clean.
- Cleaning: Hand wash the canvas upper using a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid machine washing to prevent deformation of the rubber components.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the rubber.
- Insoles: The included insoles are removable; if you require specific arch support, you can easily swap them for aftermarket orthotic inserts.
