FAQs
Are these Converse trainers waterproof?
While the leather upper offers some natural water resistance, these trainers are not fully waterproof. We recommend applying a suitable leather protector spray to enhance their resistance to water and stains.
How do I choose the correct size?
Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars generally run true to size. For the best fit, we recommend referring to the official Converse size guide or trying them on if possible.
Can I put these leather trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended for leather trainers. It can severely damage the leather, cause shrinking, cracking, and compromise the shoe's construction. Please follow the specific leather care instructions provided in this guide.
What is the main difference between leather and canvas Chuck Taylors?
Leather Chuck Taylors offer enhanced durability, a more refined and polished aesthetic, and generally better resistance to light moisture compared to canvas. However, they require specific care routines for cleaning and conditioning.
How often should I condition the leather?
The frequency of conditioning depends on how often you wear them and the environmental conditions. As a general guideline, conditioning every 1 to 3 months will help keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out.
Do these trainers offer good arch support?
Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars are known for their classic flat sole design. While comfortable for casual wear, they typically do not offer significant built-in arch support. If you require additional arch support, consider using aftermarket orthotic insoles.
Are these trainers suitable for all genders?
Yes, despite sometimes being categorized by gender for administrative purposes, Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars are widely considered a unisex style and are worn by people of all genders.
Troubleshooting
Scuffs or marks appear on the leather.
For minor scuffs, gently rub with a dedicated leather cleaner or conditioner on a soft cloth. For deeper marks, a specialized leather repair cream or polish in a matching color may be needed.
Trainers feel stiff and uncomfortable initially.
Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially, gradually increasing wear time. Leather conditioners can also help soften the material.
Leather appears dry or is starting to crack.
Regularly apply a high-quality leather conditioner or moisturizer. This replenishes natural oils and keeps the leather supple, preventing further drying and cracking. Ensure the shoes are clean before conditioning.
Unpleasant odor develops inside the trainers.
Remove the insoles and air out the shoes in a well-ventilated area. Use shoe deodorizers, cedar shoe trees, or sprinkle baking soda inside and leave overnight (vacuum out in the morning) to absorb odors. Ensure shoes are completely dry.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Often, squeaking is caused by friction between parts of the shoe. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch underneath the insole, or where the sole meets the upper if you can pinpoint the source.

Product Care & Maintenance
To ensure your leather trainers remain in excellent condition and last for years, proper care is essential:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a high-quality leather protector spray. This helps repel water and resist stains.
- Regular Cleaning:
- Wipe off dirt and dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
- For tougher marks, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap, or a dedicated leather cleaner. Apply cleaner to a cloth first, not directly to the shoe.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which can damage the leather finish.
- Conditioning: Leather can dry out and crack over time. Apply a leather conditioner every 1-3 months (depending on wear) to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Apply with a clean cloth and buff gently.
- Scuff Removal: For minor scuffs, a specialized leather scuff remover or a small amount of leather conditioner can sometimes help blend them away.
- Drying: If your trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can cause the leather to crack or shrink.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Never machine wash leather trainers, as this will severely damage the material and construction.
