FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard Converse sizing conventions. If you have previously worn Chuck Taylors, choose your usual size.
Can I replace the insoles?
The OrthoLite insoles are designed for optimal comfort, but they can be removed if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
While the rubber sole provides good grip, the canvas upper is not waterproof and may absorb water in heavy rain.
What is the primary material used?
These trainers feature a durable, heavyweight cotton canvas upper.
How do I maintain the black colour?
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and use color-safe cleaners when removing spots to keep the pigment vibrant.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone easily
The wide flat laces are designed for style; double-knotting them will keep them secure while maintaining the aesthetic.
Insole feels stiff initially
The OrthoLite material requires a few days of consistent wear to fully contour to your arch and provide maximum comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, follow these maintenance tips:
- Breaking In: Wear them for short durations initially to allow the heavy canvas to mold to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the canvas. For deeper stains, spot-clean with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing, as it can damage the vulcanized rubber.
- Lacing: Take advantage of the wide flat laces to distribute tension evenly across the top of your foot.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the saturated black fabric from fading prematurely.
