FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for hiking or rugged outdoor activities?
While the Palla Ace Washed CVS offers durability for urban use, it is primarily designed as a streetwear sneaker. The canvas material and outsole are not optimized for strenuous outdoor activities or rough terrain compared to dedicated hiking boots.
How does the sizing run for the Palla Ace Washed CVS?
These shoes generally run true to size. It is recommended to consult the brand's sizing chart and consider your typical shoe size. If you are between sizes, ordering half a size up might provide more comfort, especially with thicker socks.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
The canvas material offers limited water resistance. While they can handle light moisture, they are not waterproof and prolonged exposure to heavy rain may result in wet feet. Using a water-repellent spray can offer some protection.
What is the main difference between the 'Washed' and standard Palla Ace models?
The 'Washed' versions, like the Palla Ace Washed CVS, feature a pre-stone-washed canvas upper that gives them an immediate vintage, soft, and worn-in appearance. Standard models typically have a cleaner, crisper canvas finish.
How should I store these sneakers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box or dust bag to protect them from dust and excessive sunlight, which can fade the color of the washed canvas over time.
What does 'CVS' stand for in the product name?
CVS typically refers to 'Chine’s Vintage Style' or a similar designation indicating the washed canvas treatment that provides the characteristic vintage look and feel.
Troubleshooting
Canvas appears faded or discolored after cleaning.
Ensure you used a mild detergent and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals. For significant fading, consider a fabric dye if the appearance is critical, or embrace the evolving vintage look.
Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces.
The diamond-pattern outsole offers good grip, but like all footwear, performance can be reduced on extremely wet or slick surfaces. Ensure the soles are clean of debris. For enhanced grip, consider aftermarket traction pads if needed for specific conditions.
Stitching is coming loose.
For minor loose threads, carefully trim them with scissors. If stitching is significantly unraveling, it may indicate a manufacturing defect. Contact customer support for potential repair or replacement options.

Compatibility: The Palla Ace Washed CVS is designed as unisex streetwear footwear. Its low-cut style makes it compatible with a wide range of clothing, including jeans, shorts, casual trousers, and skirts.
Care:
- Cleaning: Due to the washed canvas, it is recommended to clean these shoes gently. Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Washing: Spot cleaning is preferred. If deep cleaning is necessary, hand wash with cold water and mild detergent, then air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Protection: Consider using a fabric protector spray suitable for canvas to help repel stains and water, though this may alter the natural feel of the washed material slightly.
