FAQs
What makes these trainers 'Throwback'?
The 'Throwback' designation refers to the design elements that revive the raw, unfiltered energy of '90s street culture, including oversized eyelets, wide flat laces, and remastered details for a nostalgic look.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?
While inspired by basketball roots, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They offer good grip and support for general activities but are not intended for high-impact athletic performance.
How should I clean the grey canvas upper?
It is best to spot clean the canvas with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing to maintain the material's integrity.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
The canvas upper is not waterproof. While they can withstand light moisture, they are not recommended for heavy rain or wet conditions, as the material can absorb water.
What is the benefit of OrthoLite cushioning?
OrthoLite cushioning provides enhanced comfort, breathability, and all-day support, helping to keep your feet comfortable even during long periods of wear.
Are these trainers true to size?
Sizing can vary slightly between individuals. It is recommended to consult the Converse sizing guide and potentially measure your foot to ensure the best fit, especially since these are high-top trainers.
What is the material of the sole?
The sole is made of vulcanized rubber, which offers durability and reliable traction.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Refer to the Converse size chart for accurate measurements. Consider trying on a pair in-store if possible, or measure your foot length and compare it to the provided sizing guide.
Canvas appears dirty
Gently spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush and a specialized canvas shoe cleaner, then allow to air dry.
Laces fraying
Replace the laces with new ones. Converse offers replacement laces, or standard flat laces of a similar width can be used.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no specific setup beyond lacing them to your preferred tightness. They are designed for compatibility with a wide range of casual attire, from jeans to shorts. To care for your Converse Throwback Hi Trainers, it is recommended to spot clean them using a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials and construction. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. For tougher stains, specialized shoe cleaners designed for canvas may be used, following product instructions carefully.
