FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities like running?

While comfortable for everyday walks and casual wear, these Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Move Platform Low Shoes are designed for fashion and general comfort, not for high-impact athletic activities like running or intense sports.

How should I clean my Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Move Platform Low Shoes?

For light dirt, use a soft brush or damp cloth to wipe the canvas. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be applied with a soft brush, then wiped clean. Air dry thoroughly. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents to protect the material and sole.

What material are these shoes made from?

The upper is crafted from durable canvas, providing a classic look and feel. The platform sole is typically made from lightweight rubber.

Is the platform heavy?

No, a key design aspect of the 'Move' series is its lightweight platform. It offers elevation without the significant weight often associated with platform footwear, ensuring comfort for extended wear.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Converse sizing can sometimes vary. It is generally recommended to refer to a size chart or try them on if possible. This specific pair is a UK size 8.5.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The canvas material is not waterproof. It's best to avoid heavy rain or puddles to keep your feet dry and preserve the shoe's appearance. Consider applying a water-repellent spray for light protection.

What is the height of the platform?

Info needed: While the exact measurement can vary slightly by model, the 'Move Platform' series typically features a modest, comfortable elevation designed for style and ease of wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel uncomfortable or rub.

Ensure you have the correct size; Converse sizing can sometimes vary. Wear socks appropriate for canvas shoes. Allow for a break-in period, as the canvas material will soften and mold to your foot over time with wear.

Canvas appears dirty or stained.

Gently clean with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For tougher spots, a baking soda paste can be used. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals to preserve the material and color. Refer to the 'Care Instructions' section for detailed steps.

Platform sole makes a squeaking sound.

Info needed: If squeaking persists, try adding a thin layer of baby powder or cornstarch between the insole and the shoe body, which can reduce friction. If the squeak comes from the outside, check for loose parts or consult Converse support.

Care Instructions:

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your canvas shoes:

  1. Spot Cleaning: For light dirt or smudges, gently wipe the canvas with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap). Rub in circular motions.
  2. Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn stains, create a paste with baking soda and water. Apply it to the stain, let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub gently with a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  3. Laces: Remove laces and hand wash them separately with soap and water, or place them in a mesh bag if machine washing on a delicate cycle.
  4. Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, as these can damage the canvas or rubber. Do not tumble dry.
  5. Avoid: Do not machine wash the entire shoe, use harsh chemicals like bleach, or submerge them in water, as this can degrade the material and adhesives.
