FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are designed for leisure and daily casual use, not for running or high-impact athletics.
How do I determine my size?
These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. We recommend choosing your typical sneaker size.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended, as heat and agitation can weaken the rubber and canvas adhesives.
Does the high-top design provide arch support?
The support is minimal as it is a lifestyle shoe. If you require extra arch support, an aftermarket insole is recommended.
How can I prevent the rubber soles from yellowing?
Store them away from direct sunlight and wipe the sides of the soles regularly with a damp cloth.
Troubleshooting
Canvas appears dirty or stained
Gently scrub with a soft-bristle brush, warm water, and a small amount of mild detergent.
Laces becoming frayed
Replace with standard high-top length flat cotton laces for the best fit.
Rubbing at the ankle
Ensure the shoes are laced correctly to secure the fit, or wear slightly thicker socks during the break-in phase.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Converse Day One Hi trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: New trainers may feel stiff; wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the material to flex to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a damp cloth and mild soap to spot-clean the canvas. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the rubber bonding.
- Drying: Air dry only. Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the rubber from cracking.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
