How do I clean the white leather parts?
Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap or a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the leather.
What does the Fragment logo represent?

Is the sizing true to size?
Sizing can vary slightly. It is recommended to check Converse's official size guide and consider user reviews for specific fit feedback.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Consult the Converse sizing chart and compare with your current footwear. Consider trying them on in-store if possible, as fit can vary.
Leather creasing
Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure proper fit and use shoe trees for storage.
Color transfer from blue accents
In rare cases, the royal blue material might transfer color onto light-colored socks, especially when new or wet. Wear darker socks initially and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
