FAQs
What is the main purpose of the AS-1 Pro trainers?
The AS-1 Pro trainers are designed for skateboarding, offering durability and board feel, but also function as stylish everyday footwear.
How should I clean the 'Black White Gum' colorway?
Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth for the main body. Use appropriate cleaners for suede or leather if applicable, and allow to air dry.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The AS-1 Pro features a standard fit. While the lacing allows for some adjustment, individuals with very wide feet might find them snug. Check specific sizing guides if available.
What is the difference between AS-1 Pro and other Converse series?
The AS-1 Pro is part of the Converse CONS skateboarding line, typically featuring enhanced durability and cushioning for skate-specific needs compared to lifestyle models.
Can these trainers be used for running?
While comfortable for walking, the AS-1 Pro is not specifically designed for running and may lack the necessary cushioning and support for that activity.
How long does the lacing system typically last?
The lacing system is designed for durability. Regular care and avoiding excessive force should ensure its longevity.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-adjust for a more comfortable fit. Consider if a break-in period is needed for the material.
Dirt on the black upper
Wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild shoe cleaner suitable for the material.
Gum sole scuffing
Minor scuffs on the gum sole can often be removed with a magic eraser or a paste of baking soda and water. Rub gently.
