FAQs

Are the Run Star Legacy CX trainers true to size?

Converse sizing can sometimes vary. It is generally recommended to check the size chart or try them on if possible, as some users find they run slightly large.

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

The Run Star Legacy CX features a significantly thicker, more pronounced platform sole and incorporates CX foam cushioning in the insole for enhanced comfort, unlike the thinner sole and basic cushioning of traditional Chuck Taylors.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The canvas upper is not waterproof. While the rubber sole offers some protection, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the canvas and ensure comfort.

How do I clean the white platform sole?

You can use a damp cloth, a soft brush, or a magic eraser for cleaning the white platform sole. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.

Are these suitable for long walks?

The CX foam insole provides good cushioning for comfort during extended wear, making them more suitable for long walks than standard Chuck Taylors. However, they are primarily fashion trainers, not specialized walking shoes.

What does 'CX' stand for in Run Star Legacy CX?

CX in Converse typically refers to their advanced cushioning technology, incorporating a responsive foam that provides superior comfort and impact absorption.

Can the laces be replaced?

Yes, the laces are standard and can be replaced with any comparable shoelaces if they become worn or if you wish to change the style.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe or moisture. Try ensuring the insoles are properly seated. If the noise persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Discomfort or rubbing at the heel

Ensure the shoes are laced correctly to provide adequate support. Wearing thicker socks or using heel grips can also help alleviate rubbing.

Canvas appears dirty or stained

Spot clean using a damp cloth and mild soap. For significant stains, consult the care instructions for specific cleaning methods, avoiding harsh chemicals.

Platform feels too high or unstable

Allow a break-in period for your feet to adjust to the platform height. Ensure you are walking with a natural gait. If instability persists, these may not be the best choice for your needs.

Compatibility: The Run Star Legacy CX is designed for adult wear and pairs well with a wide range of casual outfits. They are suitable for most everyday activities.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to wipe away dirt from the canvas upper. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth or an old toothbrush. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser can be effective.
  3. Laces: Remove laces for separate washing by hand with mild detergent.
  4. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box, to maintain their shape and prevent damage.
