FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is generally recommended to hand-wash your trainers using mild soap and a cloth to preserve the longevity of the glue and canvas.
Do Converse Chuck Taylor trainers run true to size?
They tend to run slightly larger than standard street shoes; many users prefer going down a half-size for a snug fit.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the standard insoles can be removed and replaced with aftermarket orthotics if you require extra arch support.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
The canvas material is not waterproof, so they are best suited for dry conditions. Consider a water-repellent spray if you plan to wear them in light drizzle.
How do I keep the black canvas from fading?
Avoid leaving the shoes in direct, intense sunlight for extended periods and clean them using mild detergents only.
What is the best way to lace them?
The traditional criss-cross method offers the most secure fit, though the design allows for various creative lacing styles.
Troubleshooting
Material scuffing on the rubber sole
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a mild abrasive cleaner to buff out black marks.
Shoes feel tight across the midfoot
Adjust the lacing tension throughout the eyelets to allow for more natural foot expansion during the day.
Canvas has lost its shape
Stuff the shoes with clean paper or shoe trees while storing them to help maintain the structural integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Converse trainers last, keep them away from harsh machine-washing cycles. For daily maintenance, wipe down the rubber toe cap and midsole with a damp cloth to remove scuffs and dirt. If the canvas becomes soiled, use a soft-bristled brush with mild soap and water, allowing them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping or adhesive degradation. Ensure you verify your UK sizing before purchase, as the classic fit may differ slightly from other athletic brands.
