FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the leather upper is more water-resistant than canvas, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
Can I remove the OrthoLite insole?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to clean them or replace them with custom orthotics if preferred.
How do I clean the leather?
Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap for light cleaning, and follow up with a leather-specific conditioner.
Do these run true to size?
Converse typically runs slightly large. If you are between sizes, many users prefer to size down by half.
Are these suitable for sports?
These are designed as lifestyle fashion sneakers and lack the specialized support required for intense athletic activities.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff when new
Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the leather to naturally mold to your feet.
Squeaking sounds while walking
Ensure the insole is flat and not folded; lightly dusting the area under the insole with talcum powder can also help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the right fit is crucial; ensure you lace them firmly but not too tightly to allow for natural movement. For care, keep the leather in prime condition by wiping away dirt with a soft, damp cloth after use. If the shoes become wet, air-dry them away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or stiffen. Periodically applying a leather conditioner can help maintain the material's suppleness over time. Always ensure the OrthoLite insoles are properly seated inside the shoe before putting them on to prevent discomfort or bunching.
