FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Converse All Star BB Shift generally fits true to size, but the low-top design and the nature of performance footwear may vary in fit. It's advisable to try them on if possible or consult customer reviews for feedback on width.

What is the primary intended use for this shoe?

The primary intended use is for basketball performance, offering support, shock absorption, and traction on indoor courts. They are also suitable for casual, everyday wear.

How do I clean the multicolor material?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution and a soft brush can be used, followed by wiping with a damp cloth. Always air dry.

What is the main difference between the Shift and other All Star BB models?

The 'Shift' designation often implies a focus on agility and a specific aesthetic, such as the multicolor design seen here. Specific performance enhancements like cushioning or materials may vary across the All Star BB series.

Can these shoes be used for outdoor basketball?

While the materials are durable, these shoes are optimized for indoor courts. Extended use on rough outdoor surfaces can accelerate wear and tear and may affect traction.

What size should I order if I'm between sizes?

For performance footwear, it's generally recommended to size down if you are between sizes to ensure a snug fit that prevents foot sliding within the shoe during athletic activity.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially

The shoe may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Gentle flexing of the shoe can also help.

Traction is reduced on dusty courts

Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth periodically during play to remove dust and debris that can accumulate and reduce grip.

Color transfer onto socks

This can sometimes occur with vibrant dyed materials, especially when new and in contact with moisture. Ensure socks are dry and consider using a fabric protectant spray (test on an inconspicuous area first).

Sole feels unresponsive after prolonged use

The cushioning may have compressed over time. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help maintain the material's integrity. Consider replacing the shoes if performance significantly degrades.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Converse All Star BB Shift arrives ready to wear. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal fit and performance. It is recommended to wear these shoes with appropriate athletic socks for maximum comfort and to prevent blistering during initial use.

Compatibility: This shoe is designed primarily for basketball performance on indoor courts. It is also compatible with casual wear. It is not recommended for use in wet conditions or on abrasive outdoor surfaces, as this may affect performance and durability.

Care: To maintain the appearance and performance of your All Star BB Shift shoes:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and prevent material degradation. Avoid storing in direct sunlight for extended periods, which can cause colors to fade.
