FAQs

Are these trainers true to size?

Converse trainers generally fit true to size, but platform models can sometimes feel slightly different. It's recommended to check sizing charts and reviews if you are between sizes or have specific fit concerns.

Can I wear these in the rain?

The canvas upper is not waterproof. While they can withstand light moisture, they are not recommended for heavy rain or wet conditions. Allow them to air dry thoroughly if they get damp.

How much height does the platform add?

The platform adds a significant amount of height, typical for platform trainers. The exact measurement can vary, but it provides a noticeable lift.

Are these suitable for walking long distances?

The CX foam cushioning offers good comfort for extended wear. However, due to the platform nature, they might not be as comfortable for very long-distance walking as specialized comfort shoes.

How do I clean the black canvas?

Use a soft cloth with mild soap and water. Gently scrub any stains and wipe clean. Always air dry away from direct heat.

Is the ankle patch real leather?

The signature Chuck Taylor ankle patch is typically made of a durable synthetic material designed to resemble leather, often printed or embossed directly onto the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable on first wear.

This is common with new platform shoes. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. Ensure you have the correct size; refer to sizing charts if unsure.

Canvas upper shows scuff marks.

Gently scrub the affected area with a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.

Ensure the soles are clean and free of debris. The rubber compound may take some time to 'wear in'. If slippage persists on smooth surfaces, consider aftermarket grip enhancements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup out of the box. Simply try them on for fit and comfort.

Compatibility: The Converse Run Star Legacy CX Platform High trainers are designed for general casual wear. They pair well with a variety of casual clothing, including jeans, shorts, dresses, and athleisure wear. They are suitable for adults of all genders.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the canvas upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Use a damp cloth or a brush with a mild soap solution to clean the platform and rubber sole. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat or sunlight, as this can cause damage or discoloration. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape while drying.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage.
