FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially the scarf laces, as the agitation can damage the print and fabric. Stick to spot cleaning.
Can I replace the scarf laces with normal ones?
Yes, you can replace the scarf laces with standard flat laces if you prefer a more traditional athletic aesthetic.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
They feature standard Chuck Taylor cushioning, which provides basic comfort. If you require significant arch support, you may want to insert aftermarket insoles.
Is the material waterproof?
The upper material is not waterproof and is best suited for dry or light-weather conditions.
How should I store them to keep the scarf laces nice?
Loosen the laces when taking the shoes off to avoid pulling on the fabric, and store them out of direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
Scarf laces keep coming undone
Due to the silky nature of the scarf material, ensure you perform a double knot to increase friction and keep the bow secure.
Creasing at the toe box
This is a normal characteristic of canvas-style high-tops; using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first unpack your Converse All Star Hi Trainers, ensure the scarf laces are threaded through the eyelets evenly to balance the floral pattern across the tongue.
Care Instructions:
- Spot Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean the polka-dot upper; avoid scrubbing to preserve the print.
- Lace Care: Since the scarf laces are made from a delicate fabric, hand wash them separately in cool water if they become soiled and lay them flat to dry.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the vibrant burgundy hue from fading over time.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to standard adult sizing; ensure you verify your UK foot size before purchase as sizing can vary slightly between series.
