FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is generally recommended to hand-clean these trainers rather than machine washing them, as heavy agitation can damage the glues and materials.
Are the Run Star Crush trainers true to size?
They generally fit true to standard Converse sizing; however, since sizes range from 3 to 11, we recommend measuring your feet if you are between sizes.
Can I use these for running?
No, these are fashion-focused lifestyle trainers and do not provide the specialized impact cushioning or motion control needed for running.
What is the difference between the standard and OX versions?
The 'OX' designation usually refers to the low-top version of the shoe, whereas standard models may have higher collar coverage.
Do these shoes come with different width options?
Converse typically produces these in a standard width that fits the majority of users comfortably.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after a long day
Feet often swell during the day; try loosening the laces during the afternoon or ensure you are wearing appropriately thin cotton socks.
Scuff marks on the soles or upper
Use a specialized rubber eraser for the white outsoles or a damp microfiber cloth for the black cotton/synthetic upper materials.
Heel slippage while walking
Try using the top eyelets for a 'runner's loop' lacing technique to lock the heel more securely in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Converse Run Star Crush trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: New trainers may feel stiff; wear them for short periods around the house before taking them on long walks.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to maintain the structural integrity of the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading of the black fabric.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces to accommodate your preferred level of tightness across the instep for optimal lockdown and support.
- Sizing: Because sizing can vary slightly within the Run Star Crush series, always verify the specific UK size label against your current footwear before first use.
