FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is generally recommended to hand clean Converse to maintain the integrity of the glue and rubber. Machine washing may cause the shoes to lose their shape.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars often run slightly large compared to other athletic shoe brands. You may want to consider a half-size down if you prefer a snug fit.

Are they suitable for the gym?

While they are suitable for light strength training due to their flat soles, they lack the impact cushioning required for running or high-impact aerobic activities.

What material are these made of?

This specific model features a high-quality cotton canvas upper with a signature rubber toe cap and midsole.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, you can remove the existing insoles to replace them with custom inserts if you require additional arch support.

How do I protect the blue colour from fading?

Keep the shoes out of direct, prolonged sunlight when not in use and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may bleach the fabric.

Troubleshooting

Canvas has developed light surface stains

Use a gentle mixture of mild detergent and water with a soft cloth to spot clean, then allow to air dry completely.

Footbed feels uncomfortable for long-term wear

Consider inserting aftermarket insoles or orthotic supports to add arch stability and cushioning.

Laces are dragging or becoming dirty

Remove the laces and soak them in warm soapy water, rinse, and air dry before re-lacing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Converse trainers remain in top condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: For light surface dirt, use a soft-bristled brush or a cloth dampened with mild soap and cold water. Avoid submerging the shoes fully in water.
  2. Drying: Always air dry your trainers naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the rubber or glue to warp.
  3. Lacing: Adjust laces according to your desired tightness; keeping them slightly loose can improve breathability during warmer weather.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent the cotton canvas from collecting dust or becoming damp.
