FAQs

Are these Converse trainers waterproof?

While the leather upper offers some natural resistance to light moisture, these trainers are not fully waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or standing water to protect the leather and maintain their condition.

How do I determine the correct size for me?

Converse All Star trainers typically fit true to size. If you are between sizes, it's often advised to size down by half a size. For the most accurate fit, consult a Converse size chart or try them on.

Can I put my leather Converse in the washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended for leather trainers. The harsh detergents and agitation can damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Please follow the manual care instructions for cleaning.

Do these trainers offer good arch support?

Converse All Star trainers feature a relatively flat sole with basic cushioning. If you require significant arch support, we suggest using your preferred orthotic insoles, which can be easily inserted.

How often should I condition the leather?

The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. For regular wear, conditioning every 1-2 months is a good guideline to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking.

Is the gold color durable and resistant to fading?

The gold finish is applied to be durable for everyday wear. However, like all colored materials, prolonged direct exposure to strong sunlight can lead to gradual fading over a very long period. Proper storage away from direct light helps preserve the color.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or dirty.

Clean the leather upper with a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. After drying, apply a leather conditioner to restore its natural sheen and suppleness.

Shoes feel too stiff and uncomfortable.

Leather shoes require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially, allowing the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape over time. This process typically takes a few wears.

Squeaking sound when walking.

A squeak can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior or moisture. Try removing the insoles to air out, or sprinkle a small amount of baby powder underneath them to reduce friction.

These trainers require no special setup; simply unbox them, lace them up to your preferred tightness, and they are ready to wear. They are designed for adults with a UK foot size of 8.5, offering compatibility with a wide range of casual and smart-casual clothing. For optimal care, regularly wipe the leather upper with a clean, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and dust. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth, following the product's instructions. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners as these can damage the leather. After cleaning, allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources or sunlight. To keep the leather supple and prevent cracking, consider using a leather conditioner periodically. Store them in a cool, dry place to maintain their condition.
