FAQs

Are these trainers true to size?

Converse sizing can sometimes vary. We recommend consulting the official Converse size guide or trying them on if possible to ensure the best fit. Many find them to be true to size.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

While the canvas is durable, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may cause water to seep in and can make the canvas dirty. We recommend avoiding heavy rain to keep them in good condition.

How do I clean the white rubber platform and toe cap?

You can clean the rubber parts with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For tougher scuffs, a magic eraser or a specialized sneaker cleaner can be effective. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Are they suitable for wider feet?

Converse trainers traditionally have a somewhat narrow fit. If you have wider feet, you might consider going up half a size or trying them on to assess comfort.

What is the weight of these trainers?

Due to the chunky platform and rubber sole, these trainers are generally heavier than standard canvas Chuck Taylors. Info needed: [Specific weight in grams/ounces for a given size].

Can the insoles be removed for custom orthotics?

The insoles in the Run Star Hike series are often glued in for stability. While removal might be possible, it could damage the shoe. We do not recommend removing them. If custom orthotics are essential, try them on with the existing insoles or consider alternative footwear.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

The chunky sole and canvas upper may require a brief 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations around the house before extended use. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly, not too tight or too loose.

Canvas upper gets dirty easily.

For light dirt, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove loose debris. For stains, mix a small amount of mild soap with water, apply to the stain with a clean cloth, and gently rub. Rinse the cloth and wipe away soap residue. Allow to air dry.

Squeaking sound from the sole.

Sometimes moisture can get between the insole and the shoe. Try removing the insole, dusting a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, then reinserting the insole. This can absorb moisture and reduce friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique and eye-catching style statement
  • Enhanced comfort due to molded platform
  • Durable construction with premium canvas and rubber sole
  • Versatile for various casual fashion looks
  • Iconic Converse branding maintains classic appeal

Cons

  • Chunky design may not suit all personal styles
  • Platform sole might feel different for some users initially
  • Canvas material may not be ideal for heavy rain or wet conditions
  • Limited ventilation compared to athletic-specific mesh shoes
  • Can be heavier than traditional canvas sneakers

These trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Simply lace them up to your preferred comfort level, ensuring the high-top design supports your ankle without restricting movement. They are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, fitting seamlessly into most modern wardrobes. For care, we recommend spot cleaning the canvas upper with a mild detergent and a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt and stains. Avoid machine washing, as this can damage the canvas and sole. For stubborn marks on the rubber sole or toe cap, a damp cloth with a gentle cleaner can be effective. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
