Full details
The Palladium Palla Ace Washed CVS is designed for adults seeking a stylish, comfortable, and durable everyday sneaker with a vintage aesthetic. Its key benefit lies in the stone-washed canvas offering a soft, lived-in feel right out of the box. A potential caveat is that the washed canvas may require specific care to maintain its look over time. This low-cut canvas sneaker features a reinforced toe cap for added durability and the signature diamond-pattern outsole for heritage style.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Palla Ace Washed CVS generally offers a standard fit. While not specifically designed for wide feet, the canvas can offer some flexibility. It is recommended to check customer reviews or try them on if possible.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the Palladium sizing chart available on the product page or official Palladium website. Measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it to the chart for the corresponding UK size.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
These shoes are made of canvas and are not waterproof. They are suitable for light rain or damp conditions, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may saturate the material. Consider a water-repellent spray for added protection.
What is the main difference between 'Palla Ace Washed' and 'Palla Ace'?
The 'Washed' version features a stone-washed canvas upper, giving it a softer feel and a pre-worn, vintage look straight from the box. The standard 'Palla Ace' may have a crisper canvas finish.
How should I clean the stone-washed canvas?
Gently brush off dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals to preserve the washed effect.
What is the purpose of the reinforced toe cap?
The reinforced toe cap is designed to increase the durability of the shoe in an area that commonly experiences wear and tear, extending the lifespan of the footwear.
Are these shoes good for walking long distances?
They are comfortable for everyday wear and moderate walking due to their lightweight construction. However, they lack specialized cushioning for high-impact or very long-distance running.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially.
Although pre-washed, canvas can stiffen slightly. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in, or use a shoe tree to help maintain shape.
Discoloration on washed canvas.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild, color-safe cleaner. Do not use harsh chemicals or bleach.
Outsole feels slippery on wet surfaces.
The diamond-pattern outsole provides traction, but like most casual shoes, grip can be reduced on very wet or smooth surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.
Canvas absorbs water easily.
For increased water resistance, apply a fabric protector spray suitable for canvas shoes. Be aware this may slightly alter the look and feel of the washed canvas.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning Canvas: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution specifically designed for canvas footwear.
- Washing: Avoid machine washing as it can damage the canvas and structure. If necessary, hand wash with cold water and mild detergent, then air dry.

- Protection: Consider applying a fabric protector spray suitable for canvas to help repel water and stains, though this may alter the original washed appearance slightly.
