FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

No, these Converse trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-impact athletic activities like running.

How do I clean the purple textile upper?

Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For stains, a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush can be used, followed by wiping clean. Always air dry.

Will the purple color fade?

Like most dyed textiles, the purple color may fade slightly over time with prolonged exposure to sunlight and wear. Proper care and storage can help minimize this.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are water-repellent, meaning they can offer protection against light rain and dampness. They are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made of durable vulcanised rubber, providing good grip and longevity.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.

What does 'water-repellent' mean for these shoes?

Water-repellent means the material resists absorbing water, causing it to bead up and roll off. This provides protection against light moisture, but prolonged exposure or heavy rain may eventually saturate the material.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not too tight. Wear with appropriate socks for comfort. If discomfort persists after initial wear, consider if the size is appropriate for your foot.

Slight color transfer

Initial wear, especially in damp conditions, may lead to slight color transfer. This is common with dyed textiles. Ensure socks are of a similar color or rinse the inside of the shoe with cold water before wear. The water-repellent treatment may also help mitigate this.

Water-repellent feature seems less effective

The water-repellent finish can wear off over time. Reapply a fabric protector spray suitable for textile footwear according to the product's instructions.

Scuffs on the rubber toe cap

Minor scuffs can often be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild soap. For persistent marks, a magic eraser or specialized shoe cleaner for rubber can be used gently.
