FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Converse sizes can sometimes run a little large. It's generally recommended to try them on or check a size chart, but for this specific model, many find them to be true to size or only slightly larger. Our size is UK 8.
How much extra height do these shoes provide?
The double-stacked platform typically adds approximately 1.5 to 2 inches (3.8 to 5 cm) of height, depending on the specific model and size.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the canvas offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended as it can soak the canvas and potentially damage the shoe. Consider a waterproofing spray for light drizzle.
How do I keep the white rubber clean?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap or a specialized shoe cleaner. For tougher scuffs, a magic eraser works well on the rubber parts. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the surface.
What is EVA cushioning?
EVA stands for Ethylene-vinyl acetate. It's a soft, flexible, and lightweight material commonly used in shoe midsoles to provide shock absorption and comfort.
Is the purple color vibrant in person?
Yes, the 'Violet Heat' colorway is designed to be a vibrant and eye-catching shade of purple, as described in the product details.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
Converse Chuck Taylors are generally known for a slightly narrower fit. While the canvas will stretch over time, individuals with wider feet might find them snug. Trying them on or consulting customer reviews for wide-fit experiences is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
This is common with new canvas shoes. Wear them for short periods at first to break them in. The canvas will soften over time, and the EVA cushioning will conform to your foot.
Soles look dirty or scuffed quickly
Regularly wipe the rubber platform and toe cap with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser or specialized rubber cleaner can be effective.
Laces constantly come undone
Try a double knot or consider replacing the laces with a different material or longer length that allows for a more secure knot.
