Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Converse Chuck Taylor All Star trainers maintain their appearance, follow these care steps:
- Fitting: Always try your shoes on before removing tags. Be aware that the label inside might show US/Euro sizing that differs from UK standard sizes.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to protect the leather grain.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to prevent the material from cracking or drying out.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to avoid leather discoloration. Use shoe trees to help maintain the narrow shape of the trainer.
- Lacing: Since these are high-top shoes, ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a secure fit around the ankle for better stability.
