FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

No, the Palla Ace is made of canvas and is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry, sunny conditions.

Can I put these boots in the washing machine?

It is not recommended. Machine washing can weaken the adhesive holding the rubber sole to the upper.

How does the sizing run?

They generally fit true to size, but if you intend to wear thick socks, you may want to consider a half-size up.

Are these suitable for hiking?

These are lifestyle boots designed for casual urban use and are not intended for technical mountain hiking.

Is the insole removable?

Most models feature a removable insole, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if needed.

What is the material composition?

The upper is crafted from soft washed canvas with a protective rubber toecap and a vulcanized rubber outsole.

Troubleshooting

Canvas staining

Gently spot clean with a soft-bristled brush and a mixture of water and mild laundry detergent. Blot dry rather than rubbing.

Laces coming undone

Ensure the laces are threaded through the eyelets correctly and consider a double knot if the factory-laced style feels too loose.

Rubber scuffs

Use a white pencil eraser or a dedicated rubber cleaner to gently buff away black scuff marks from the toe cap or outsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Palladium boots remain in good condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: While the canvas is soft, wearing them with mid-height socks initially will prevent potential friction around the ankle collar.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the canvas. For deeper cleaning, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the shoes or machine washing them, as this can damage the rubber bonding.
  3. Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the canvas to stiffen or the rubber to crack.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew on the canvas material.
