FAQs
How do I best clean the glitter upper without damaging it?
Gently wipe the glitter surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Use a minimal amount of mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh scrubbing, abrasive cleaners, or stiff brushes, as these can cause glitter particles to detach.
Are these trainers comfortable for all-day wear?
Yes, these trainers feature a cushioned interior and OrthoLite cushioning, specifically designed to provide enhanced comfort, making them suitable for all-day wear.
Do the trainers provide good ankle support?
Yes, the classic high-top silhouette is designed to provide additional ankle support, typical of the Converse All Star design.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While the textile material is durable, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. Heavy rain or prolonged exposure to moisture is not recommended for the textile upper or to preserve the glitter finish.
What is OrthoLite cushioning?
OrthoLite is a lightweight, breathable cushioning technology that provides long-lasting comfort, moisture management, and anti-microbial protection, enhancing the overall wear experience of your trainers.
Is the platform sole heavy or bulky?
The platform sole is constructed from durable rubber, providing a sturdy and elevated profile. While it adds substance compared to a standard sole, it's designed to be comfortable for wear without being excessively heavy or bulky.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The lace-up fastening allows for a custom fit. Adjust the laces to be snug but not too tight, ensuring your foot feels secure without pressure points. The high-top design and cushioned interior also contribute to a comfortable and secure feel.
Troubleshooting
Laces constantly come undone
Ensure you are tying a secure double knot. If issues persist, consider replacing laces with a slightly coarser texture.
Shoes feel too loose or too tight
Adjust the lace tension. For a looser fit, skip an eyelet or loosen laces throughout the foot. For a tighter fit, pull laces firmer from the bottom up before tying.
Glitter appears dull or dirty
Gently clean the glitter upper with a soft, damp cloth and a very mild soap solution. Avoid scrubbing, as this can dislodge the glitter particles.
Platform sole is scuffed or discolored
Use a specialized rubber sole cleaner or a magic eraser sponge for minor scuffs. For deeper discoloration, a mild bleach solution (heavily diluted) can be used on white rubber *only*, applied with a cotton swab, then rinsed immediately.
Foot discomfort or rubbing
Ensure your trainers are properly laced, not too tight or too loose. Check that your socks are appropriate. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size. The OrthoLite cushioning should provide significant comfort.

Care Instructions
To maintain the striking appearance and longevity of your trainers, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning the Glitter Upper: Gently wipe the glitter-coated textile upper with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the glitter finish. For stubborn spots, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
- Cleaning the Sole: The rubber platform sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. A soft brush can help remove dirt from the textured areas. For the white rubber, a specialized sneaker cleaner designed for rubber can help maintain its bright appearance.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and fading.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach, strong detergents, or solvents on any part of the trainers, especially the glitter upper.
