FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they are made from organic canvas. While durable, they will soak through in heavy rain or deep puddles.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
We recommend against machine washing, as it can weaken the adhesive on the rubber toe cap and degrade the canvas material.
Are these suitable for hiking?
While they feature a robust outsole, they are designed as lifestyle sneakers and are not intended for technical hiking or rugged trails.
How should I clean the white rubber toe cap?
A magic eraser or a damp cloth with a little baking soda can help restore the whiteness of the rubber toe cap.
Do these fit true to size?
Generally, yes, but because the canvas can stretch slightly over time, we recommend trying them on with the socks you plan to wear most often.
Troubleshooting
Canvas has surface stains
Use a damp cloth with mild detergent to gently scrub the affected area, then air dry.
Sole has picked up debris in diamond pattern
Use a stiff-bristled plastic brush to remove rocks or mud from the diamond-patterned grooves.
Shoe feels stiff after cleaning
Once fully dry, gently flex the shoe or manually massage the canvas to soften the fabric fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Palla Ace trainers maintain their longevity, follow these care steps:
- Initial Protection: Apply a fabric-safe water and stain repellent spray before first use to create a barrier against dust and light moisture.
- Cleaning: Spot clean the canvas using a soft brush, mild soap, and cold water. Avoid machine washing, as this can damage the structural integrity and the rubber toe cap adhesive.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the rubber components or cause the canvas to stiffen.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the canvas color from fading over time.
