FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear, or just skateboarding?
Absolutely! While designed with skateboarding performance in mind, the Converse Cons One Star Pro Low Top offers a classic, comfortable fit that makes it an excellent choice for everyday casual wear.
How do I protect the suede from water damage?
We recommend applying a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear and reapplying periodically. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
Do Converse Cons One Star Pro shoes run true to size?
Converse sizing can sometimes vary slightly. Many find these models run true to size, but if you're unsure, it's often recommended to try them on or consult a size chart if available. This specific pair is a UK Size 5.
Can I put these shoes in a washing machine?
No, washing suede shoes in a machine is strongly discouraged as it can damage the material, alter the shape, and cause discoloration. Always follow the specific care instructions for suede cleaning.
What is the difference between the 'Cons' and regular 'One Star' models?
The 'Cons' designation indicates that the shoe is part of Converse's skateboarding line. This means it often features enhanced durability, better cushioning, and improved grip specifically engineered for the demands of skateboarding, compared to the standard lifestyle One Star models.
How do I deal with scuffs on the suede?
For light scuffs, a suede eraser can often work wonders. Gently rub the eraser over the scuff in one direction. For deeper scuffs, a specialized suede repair kit might be necessary.
Is the sole replaceable for skateboarding?
The sole is integrated into the shoe's construction and is not designed to be easily replaceable. However, the vulcanized rubber sole is durable and offers excellent grip for skateboarding.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted.
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material. Brush in small, consistent strokes in one direction.
Shoes feel too stiff or uncomfortable initially.
Suede shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house before extended use. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks.
Slipping on wet surfaces.
While these shoes offer good grip for skateboarding, no shoe is completely slip-proof on all wet surfaces. Exercise caution on slick environments. Ensure the sole treads are clean.
Laces frequently come undone.
Try double-knotting your laces or consider replacing them with a different style or material of shoelace if the issue persists.
Strong odor developing inside the shoe.
Allow shoes to air out between wears. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure socks are clean and breathable.

Care
Suede Material Care:
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft brush specifically designed for suede to gently remove dirt and dust. Always brush in one direction.
- Stain Removal: For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaning solution. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Water Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray suitable for suede before first wear and periodically thereafter to protect against moisture and spills.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat. Do not use heat sources like radiators or hair dryers.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.
