FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the Sp20 Hi Tech is lightweight and comfortable, it is designed as a lifestyle trainer and does not feature the specialized cushioning or stability required for long-distance running.
How do I ensure I have the right fit?
The trainers should feel snug but not restrictive. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
Machine washing is generally discouraged as it can damage the structural adhesives and the shape of the shoe. Manual spot cleaning is the recommended method.
Is the material water-resistant?
The cotton upper is breathable but not inherently waterproof. Applying a protective spray can help repel light moisture, but they are not intended for use in heavy rain.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the Palladium Sp20 Hi Tech series is designed as a unisex product suitable for all adults.
Troubleshooting
The trainers feel stiff when first worn
Cotton canvas often requires a brief 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Material has become dirty or stained
Use a specialized canvas cleaner or a mixture of gentle soap and water. Test on a small, inconspicuous area first before applying to the whole shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting started with your Palladium trainers is simple: ensure you are using the correct UK size for your specific fit. As these shoes are constructed from cotton, they benefit from a quick pre-wear treatment with a water-repellent spray to provide an initial barrier against dust and light moisture.
For care and maintenance:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft-bristled brush. For deeper stains, use a mild soap and a damp cloth to spot clean the cotton upper.
- Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can degrade the sole material or cause the cotton to fade.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees or paper stuffing to help them maintain their shape when not in use for extended periods.
