FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While the Converse Wave Trainer Sneakers offer good cushioning for everyday comfort, they are primarily designed for casual wear and light activity, not for intense running or athletic training.
How do I clean the mesh part of the shoe?
You can gently clean the mesh with a soft brush or a cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is constructed with a combination of breathable mesh and durable suede overlays.
Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?
The trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended. Suede materials can be particularly susceptible to water damage.
How does the CX cushioning feel?
CX cushioning is designed to be lightweight and provide responsive comfort, offering a comfortable feel for all-day wear without being overly bulky.
What is the style code for these trainers?
The style code for this specific variant is A14218C.
How should I store these trainers when not in use?
Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. Wear with appropriate socks. If still tight after initial wear, consider if the size is correct or if the material needs time to break in.
Discoloration on suede areas
Use a suede eraser for minor marks. For tougher stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner or use a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions. Apply a suede protector to prevent future staining.
Sole feels slippery
Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. The traction rubber is designed for grip, but wear and tear over time can reduce its effectiveness. If the issue persists on dry surfaces, the shoes may be nearing the end of their lifespan.
