Full details

FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the canvas and suede materials are not waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but are not suitable for heavy rain or snow.

How do I know if I have the right size?

These are UK sizes. It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the sizing chart. Many find Converse trainers fit true to size, but some prefer to size up or down depending on foot width and personal preference.

Can I wear these in the summer?

While the synthetic fur lining offers warmth, the overall design is still suitable for warmer weather if preferred, though they may not be as breathable as unlined trainers.

What is the main difference between these and standard Chuck Taylors?

The primary difference is the addition of a synthetic fur lining for increased warmth, making them more suitable for cooler weather.

How durable is the suede upper?

The suede upper is durable for everyday wear, but it requires proper care to maintain its appearance and integrity, especially in adverse conditions.

Can the insoles be removed for orthotics?

The insoles are typically glued in place. While they may be removable with some effort, it's not recommended as it could damage the shoe's interior.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin socks initially or try a shoe stretcher. The suede may stretch slightly with wear.

Suede looks dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions.

Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied

Ensure laces are threaded through eyelets correctly. Consider replacing with a different type of lace if they are worn out.

Synthetic fur lining is matted

Gently try to fluff the fur with your fingers. Avoid excessive moisture or heat which can damage the lining.

Compatibility: The Chuck Taylor All Star Hi Trainers are designed for adult wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual clothing. They pair well with jeans, chinos, shorts, and casual dresses.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Suede Upper: Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth, ensuring not to saturate the material. Allow to air dry away from direct heat.
  • Cleaning the Canvas and Rubber: Wipe the canvas with a slightly damp cloth. The rubber outsole can be cleaned with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box, to maintain their shape and protect from dust.
