FAQs
Do these trainers run true to size?
No, these Converse EVA Lift Platform Trainers tend to run large. It is recommended to consider ordering a half size down from your usual size for a better fit.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of a textile material with a shimmering, metallic lavender finish.
Are these trainers suitable for walking long distances?
They feature a cushioned foam sockliner and underfoot cushioning, making them comfortable for everyday wear and moderate walking. However, they are primarily fashion trainers and may not offer the same support as specialized walking shoes for very long distances.
How should I clean the metallic finish?
Wipe the metallic textile upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners to preserve the finish.
Can these trainers be worn by men and women?
Yes, these trainers have a unisex design and appeal, making them suitable for both men and women.
What is the main difference between these and standard Converse trainers?
The key differences are the EVA Lift Platform sole, which adds height and a modern aesthetic, and the distinctive metallic lavender finish on the upper.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is a vulcanised rubber outsole, providing durability and grip.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too large
As these trainers run large, consider purchasing a half size down from your usual size. If already purchased, thicker socks or an additional insole may help improve fit.
Metallic finish appears dull or scuffed
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth. For minor scuffs, a soft pencil eraser might help. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods.
Discomfort during extended wear
Ensure laces are adjusted for a comfortable, secure fit without being too tight. The foam sockliner offers cushioning, but if persistent discomfort occurs, consider adding a specialized insole.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
The vulcanised rubber outsole provides grip, but performance can vary on extremely wet or smooth surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean for optimal traction.
