FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Converse Ctas Hi trainers often run slightly long. Many users find that sizing down by half a size provides the best fit, but checking the specific size chart is recommended.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the heat and agitation can damage the adhesive and material.
Are they suitable for running?
No, these are fashion trainers and do not contain the technical cushioning or stability features required for running.
How do I lace them properly?
You can use standard criss-cross lacing, or leave the top eyelet unlaced for a more relaxed, classic aesthetic.
Are they water-resistant?
No, the canvas upper is porous and will absorb water. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or mud.
Troubleshooting
Canvas becoming dirty or stained
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt, then gently clean stained areas with a cloth dipped in mild detergent and water.
Heel rubbing or discomfort during break-in
Wear slightly thicker socks during the first few wears to protect the heel area until the canvas material softens.
White rubber sole turning yellow
Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a mixture of baking soda and water, scrubbing gently with an old toothbrush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Converse Ctas Hi trainers last as long as possible, start by loosening the laces fully to make putting them on easier without crushing the heel counter. These shoes are highly compatible with almost any casual wardrobe, from slim-fit jeans to casual dresses. For care, keep them looking fresh by spot-cleaning the canvas with a soft cloth, mild soap, and warm water. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the glue bonding the rubber sole to the canvas. If they become wet, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the rubber from warping or yellowing.
