How should I clean my grey Converse SHAI 001 shoes?

Does the 'Clean Slate' color fade?

The 'Clean Slate' color refers to the grey hue. Like most dyed materials, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading over time. Proper storage can help maintain the color.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While leather offers some resistance, these shoes are not waterproof. For heavy rain or wet conditions, consider them not ideal and opt for waterproof footwear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have purchased the correct size. Leather shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially.

Scuff marks or dirt on the surface

For light marks, use a damp cloth. For tougher stains on leather, use a specialized leather shoe cleaner. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Soles feel slippery

New shoe soles can sometimes have a slippery coating. Lightly scuffing the soles on a rough surface (like concrete) can help improve grip. Ensure the soles are clean and free of debris.
