Troubleshooting

Sizing seems off

Try on with the type of socks you typically wear. Consult the official Converse size chart and compare with your foot measurement. If possible, try on a pair in-store or check reviews for specific fit notes on this collaborative model.

Leather creasing excessively

Natural creasing will occur with wear. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Color transfer from blue accents

Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing. If color transfer occurs onto socks, wash the affected socks immediately. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture, especially on the blue padded collar.

Outsole feels slippery

New rubber outsoles can sometimes have a slick surface. Wear them in slightly on dry, non-abrasive surfaces. If the issue persists, check for any residue on the sole.
