FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
Yes, while designed with skateboarding in mind, the Converse Cons One Star Pro offers ample comfort and durability, making it an excellent choice for general everyday wear and casual walking.
How do I protect the suede from water damage?
It is highly recommended to apply a quality suede protector spray evenly over the shoes before wearing them for the first time. Reapply it periodically, especially if you anticipate exposure to moisture or wet conditions, to maintain its protective barrier.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended for suede shoes. The harsh detergents and agitation can severely damage the suede material, alter the shoe's structure, and cause color bleeding. Always follow specific suede cleaning instructions using specialized products.
What does 'Cons One Star Pro' mean?
`Cons` refers to Converse's dedicated skateboarding line, and `Pro` indicates that the shoe features enhanced durability, superior cushioning, and improved grip specifically engineered to meet the demands of skateboarding performance, all while maintaining the classic One Star aesthetic.
Is the sizing true to fit?
Converse sizing can sometimes run slightly larger than other brands. For the most accurate fit, it's generally recommended to consult a Converse size guide or, if possible, try them on. This particular variant is listed as a UK Size 5.
Will the brown color fade over time?
Like most colored suede products, prolonged and direct exposure to sunlight can potentially lead to some color fading over time. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from harsh sunlight can help preserve the rich brown color.
Do these shoes come with extra laces?
Info needed: Please check the product packaging or consult the retailer's product description for details on included accessories like extra laces, as this can vary by specific model and production run.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap and texture. Brush in one direction for a uniform look. For stubborn areas, a suede eraser can help lift dirt before brushing.
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing. For a tighter fit, utilize all eyelets and pull laces firmly. For a looser fit, skip an eyelet or loosen laces slightly. Consider trying different lacing patterns that might better suit your foot shape or activity.
Shoes are getting dirty quickly.
Regularly apply a suede protector spray before wearing the shoes, especially in dusty or damp conditions. For existing dirt, follow the suede cleaning instructions outlined in the 'Care' section promptly to prevent stains from setting in.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, then replacing the insole. If the issue persists, the squeak might be coming from the outsole, which often resolves with continued wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care
- Cleaning Suede: Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive water, as these can damage the suede.
- Protection: Apply a quality suede protector spray evenly to the shoes before first wear and periodically thereafter. This helps repel water and stains, extending the life and appearance of the suede.
- Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with plain paper (like newspaper, but avoid colored ink) to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent color fading and material degradation.
