FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for walking long distances?

While designed for comfort, the platform sole may require an adjustment period. They are best suited for general casual wear and moderate walking.

How do I clean the silver finish without damaging it?

Use a soft, damp cloth for regular cleaning. Avoid abrasive materials or strong cleaning agents. For stubborn marks, test a mild shoe cleaner for metallic finishes on a small, hidden area first.

What is the primary difference between these and standard Chuck Taylors?

The main difference is the addition of a lifted platform sole, which adds height and a contemporary aesthetic to the classic Chuck Taylor design.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

These trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and prevent discomfort.

What kind of socks are best with platform trainers?

Any type of casual socks can be worn. Consider the thickness based on comfort and the weather. No-show socks can provide a clean look if preferred.

How do I ensure I get the right fit?

Refer to the sizing chart and ensure your foot measurements correspond accurately. These are UK size 4.5.

Troubleshooting

Laces come undone easily

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing with longer or different texture laces if slippage persists.

Discomfort on the heel or arch

Break in the shoes by wearing them for short periods initially. Consider using insoles or arch supports for additional comfort.

Silver finish appears dull or scuffed

Gently clean the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For scuffs, a specialized shoe cleaner for metallic finishes might be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel heavier than expected

This is typical of platform shoes. Adjusting gait and wearing them regularly will help you acclimate to the weight and feel.
