FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, but keep in mind that leather may feel firmer initially compared to canvas shoes.
Can I machine wash my Converse Weapon sneakers?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the construction. Always clean by hand.
Are they waterproof?
While the leather offers some protection against light splashes, they are not waterproof and should not be submerged.
How do I maintain the shine of the leather?
Using a neutral or black leather cream can help restore moisture and provide a gentle sheen to the surface.
Is the sole non-marking?
The rubber outsole is designed for durability and grip, typically performing well on indoor surfaces without leaving marks.
How often should I condition the leather?
Depending on usage and climate, conditioning the leather once every 3 to 6 months is usually sufficient.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help the material maintain its shape.
Difficulty cleaning white areas of the sole
Use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the rubber outsole.
Shoes feel too snug
Try adjusting the lacing pattern or wearing thinner socks until the leather stretches and conforms to your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Converse Weapon sneakers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Setup: Ensure the lace-up fastening is adjusted to your preferred tension. Avoid pulling the laces too tight during the first few wears to allow the leather to flex naturally to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper stains on the leather, use a professional leather cleaner applied sparingly with a microfibre cloth.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few months to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to fade or dry out.
- Moisture Control: If the shoes get wet, remove the laces and stuff them with newspaper or cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and maintain their structure while drying.
