FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, though the canvas may feel snug initially before molding to your foot.
Can I wear these for sports?
These are lifestyle fashion trainers and are not recommended for high-impact sports or gym workouts.
How do I keep the white rubber toe cap clean?
A magic eraser or a mixture of baking soda and water applied with an old toothbrush works well on the rubber elements.
Can I put them in the dryer?
No, you should never put them in the dryer as high heat can melt the adhesive and shrink the canvas.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
While durable, canvas is not waterproof. They are best worn in dry conditions.
Troubleshooting
Laces constantly coming untied
Consider double-knotting the laces or replacing them with a slightly textured cotton pair for better friction.
Discomfort during long walks
Insert a high-quality aftermarket insole to provide the additional arch support required for long-distance walking.
Stains on the canvas material
Use a specialized canvas cleaner and a soft-bristle brush, dabbing gently rather than scrubbing aggressively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Converse trainers, ensure you choose the correct size based on your standard UK measurement. When putting them on for the first time, loosen the laces significantly to avoid straining the eyelets.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe off loose dirt with a soft, dry brush or cloth after each use.
- For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and a damp cloth on the exterior.
- Avoid machine washing, as it can damage the glue bonds and canvas integrity.
- Air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent material warping.
