Product Information

Full details

These Converse All Star Platform Crochet trainers are designed for active kids who appreciate classic skate style with a modern twist. The key benefit is the combination of a unique crocheted upper for breathability and a platform sole for added comfort and style. A minor caveat is that the crocheted material may require specific care to maintain its appearance. The trainers feature a textile and synthetic upper, a rubber toe cap, a cushioned platform midsole, and a grippy rubber outsole, all finished with signature All Star branding.

What is the platform sole for?

The platform sole provides extra cushioning for comfort and adds a trendy, elevated aesthetic to the classic trainer design.

Troubleshooting

Crochet threads snagging

Carefully trim any snagged threads with small scissors. Avoid catching the main fabric.

Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended. Consider using a protective spray designed for fabric shoes, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
