Converse Lift Hi Leather Trainers - Black - UK 5.5

Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, since they are leather, they may feel slightly more snug than canvas versions at first.

The leather upper is more water-resistant than canvas, but they are not fully waterproof and should be dried naturally if they get wet.

The platform itself is 3cm, with an total wedge heel height of approximately 4cm (1.5 inches).

The rubber platform adds weight compared to a standard Chuck Taylor, but most users find them comfortable for daily activity once accustomed to the feel.

Use a leather conditioner occasionally to keep the material supple and prevent it from cracking over time.

The trainers feature a standard textile lining; if you require specific arch support, you can often add a thin aftermarket insole.

Wear thicker socks during the first few uses and ensure the laces are not tied excessively tight to allow the material to flex.

Use a specialized rubber eraser or a melamine foam sponge with water to gently buff out scuff marks.

This is common with new shoes. Try dusting a small amount of talcum powder beneath the removable insole if applicable, or simply allow the internal materials to settle with wear.
