FAQs

How do I clean the suede on my Cons One Star Pro shoes?

Gently brush off dry dirt with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material, applying it with a clean cloth and blotting gently. Avoid harsh scrubbing or water saturation.

Are these shoes true to size?

Converse shoes generally run true to size, but fit can vary slightly. We recommend trying them on if possible or consulting a Converse size chart. Most users find them comfortable in their standard shoe size.

Can I use these for sports other than skateboarding?

While engineered for skateboarding, their durable construction and comfortable fit make them suitable for casual wear and light activities. However, they are not designed for high-impact sports like running or basketball, which require different support and cushioning.

What is the difference between One Star and One Star Pro?

The 'Pro' designation indicates enhanced features specifically for skateboarding, such as more durable materials (like thicker suede), reinforced stitching, improved cushioning, and a more grippy sole designed to withstand the rigors of skate performance compared to the standard One Star classic model.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the suede material is not inherently waterproof. While a suede protector spray can offer some resistance to light moisture, these shoes are not designed for wet conditions and prolonged exposure to water can damage the suede.

How do I make my suede shoes last longer?

Regular cleaning with a suede brush, applying a protective spray, avoiding excessive moisture, and storing them properly (away from direct sunlight and heat) will significantly extend their lifespan. Rotating with other shoes also helps reduce wear.

Is the sole replaceable?

The sole of the Converse Cons One Star Pro shoes is not designed to be replaced. If the outsole wears out significantly, it's generally time to consider a new pair to maintain optimal performance and safety.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully.

Shoes feel too stiff initially

Wear them regularly. Suede shoes, especially skate models with robust construction, often require a break-in period to conform to your foot shape for optimal comfort and board feel.

Laces frequently come untied or break

Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot. If laces break, replace them with durable skate laces for better longevity and performance.

Slipping on the skateboard or slick surfaces

Inspect the rubber outsole for excessive wear or debris. Clean the sole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt that might be compromising grip. If the tread is significantly worn, it might be time for a new pair.

Care

Suede material requires specific care to maintain its appearance and longevity.

  1. Initial Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear to help repel water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: For light dirt, use a soft suede brush to gently brush away dust and dried mud. Always brush in one direction.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a clean cloth. Apply sparingly and follow product instructions.
  4. Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat.
  5. Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry suede shoes, as this can damage the material and structure. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or mud without proper protection.
