FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is generally recommended to hand-wash using a soft brush and mild soap to preserve the integrity of the organic canvas and construction.
Are these suitable for hiking?
While durable for city streets, they are designed as lifestyle trainers and are not intended for technical hiking or rough wilderness trails.
Do they run true to size?
Most users find they run true to size, but since they are a canvas shoe, they may feel slightly wider after the break-in period.
What does the chukka height mean?
Chukka height refers to a shoe that rises just to the ankle, providing more coverage than a low-top sneaker but less than a full-height boot.
Can I wear these in the rain?
The canvas material is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or light-drizzle conditions.
Troubleshooting
Canvas becoming dirty or stained
Spot clean gently with a mixture of mild detergent and warm water using a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive scrubbing.
Feeling discomfort after long walks
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for your arch height; if needed, add an aftermarket orthotic insole for extra cushioning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Palladium shoes last, keep the following tips in mind:
- Break-in Period: While soft from the start, allow a few days of regular wear for the canvas to conform perfectly to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt from the canvas. For deeper cleans, spot-treat with a mild soap solution and air dry away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shape of the chukka silhouette over time.
- Protection: Apply a fabric-safe water repellent spray to protect the organic canvas from light spills and dust accumulation.
