FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Converse One Star Pro shoes generally run true to size. However, fit can vary slightly. We recommend trying them on if possible or referring to Converse's official sizing guide.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While the suede offers some natural resistance, these shoes are not fully waterproof. It's best to avoid heavy rain to protect the suede material. Using a water-repellent spray can offer some protection.
What's the difference between One Star and One Star Pro?
The 'Pro' designation indicates enhancements specifically for skateboarding, such as increased cushioning, durable rubber outsoles for better grip and board feel, and reinforced stitching for longevity.
How do I remove scuff marks from the suede?
For light scuff marks, gently rub with a suede eraser or a clean, soft pencil eraser. For deeper marks, a specialized suede cleaner may be necessary, followed by brushing.
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
Yes, the Cons One Star Pro offers sufficient cushioning and support for comfortable everyday walking, combining skate durability with casual wearability.
How long do these shoes typically last for a skateboarder?
Durability varies based on skateboarding intensity and style. With regular use, the reinforced suede and sole construction are designed to withstand significant abuse, often outlasting standard canvas shoes.
Is the green color difficult to maintain?
Like all suede colors, the green can show dirt. Regular brushing and prompt spot cleaning are key to maintaining its vibrant appearance. A protective spray is highly recommended.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper grime, use a suede eraser or specialized cleaner.
Shoes feel too stiff
Converse suede shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially for casual activities to help them conform to your feet.
Soles lack grip
Ensure the outsoles are clean from dirt or debris. If the grip has worn down significantly, it might indicate the shoes are reaching the end of their functional life for skateboarding.
Laces frequently break during skateboarding
Replace standard laces with more durable skate-specific laces, often made from stronger materials or waxed for resilience.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility
These shoes are primarily designed for:
- Skateboarding: Their durable construction and grip are optimized for skate sessions.
- Casual Wear: They pair well with a wide range of casual clothing, including denim, chinos, and shorts.
- Urban Exploration: Comfortable enough for daily walking and navigating city environments.
Care
Suede requires specific care to maintain its look and durability:
- Initial Protection: Apply a suede protector spray before first wear to guard against water and stains. Reapply periodically as directed by the product.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
- Spot Cleaning: For small stains, use a suede eraser or a small amount of white vinegar on a clean cloth, gently rubbing the stained area. Let it dry naturally, then brush.
- Avoid Water: Suede is sensitive to water. Try to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and let them air dry away from direct heat.
- Deep Cleaning: For tougher grime, consider specialized suede cleaners or professional cleaning services.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
