FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
The AS-1 Pro trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and style. While they offer comfort and durability, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact sports and may not provide the necessary support or cushioning for athletic activities.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
The trainers should fit snugly but comfortably, with enough room in the toe box. You should not feel excessive pressure on any part of your foot. It is recommended to try them on or consult a sizing chart if purchasing online.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the materials offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain their condition and prevent discomfort.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Information regarding warranty periods typically varies and is best obtained directly from the retailer or the official Converse warranty documentation.
How should I clean the black and white upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Gently wipe the surface. For tougher stains, a soft brush can be used carefully. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the AS-1 Pro series is available in various colorways and materials. Please check the product listings for available options.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of pressure. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if a break-in period is needed.
Gum sole scuff marks
Gently rub scuff marks with a soft cloth and a small amount of mild soap and water. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be used cautiously on the gum sole only.
Laces fraying
Replace frayed laces with new ones. Converse offers replacement laces, or any standard shoelaces of the appropriate length can be used.
