FAQs
Are these trainers true to size?
Converse trainers are generally considered true to size, but individual fit can vary. It is recommended to consult a size guide or try them on if possible. The Run Star Legacy Platform Trainers have a specific fit due to the platform.
Can I wear these for sports or running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and style, not for athletic performance. The platform sole is not optimized for the impact and support required during sports like running.
How do I clean the platform sole?
The rubber platform sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher marks, a magic eraser can be used cautiously on the rubber parts, avoiding the canvas upper.
What is the height of the platform?
The exact height of the platform can vary slightly by model, but the Run Star Legacy typically offers a significant lift, often around 2 inches or more, to provide a noticeable elevation.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the Converse Run Star Legacy Platform Trainers are not waterproof. They are made of canvas and rubber, making them suitable for dry conditions. Water exposure can affect the material and longevity.
What other colors are available?
The Run Star Legacy series is available in various colors, including classic options like black, white, and red, as well as seasonal and limited editions. Refer to the product listings for current availability.
Do they offer good arch support?
Converse trainers typically offer basic cushioning. For individuals requiring significant arch support, consider using custom insoles or orthotics that can be inserted into the trainers.
Troubleshooting
Tight fit or discomfort
Wear the trainers with socks for a short period to allow them to stretch slightly. If discomfort persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if a longer break-in period is needed.
Platform sole feels unstable
Ensure you are accustomed to the height of the platform. Practice walking in them on a stable surface. If the instability is due to a manufacturing defect, contact customer support.
Dirt accumulation on platform or canvas
Follow the cleaning instructions above, using a damp cloth and mild soap for specific stains. For deeper cleaning of the sole, a magic eraser can be carefully used on the rubber parts.
Laces fraying or becoming dirty
Clean the laces with a damp cloth or hand wash them with mild detergent. If severely damaged, they can be replaced with standard Converse laces.

Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For stubborn stains on the canvas, a mild soap and water solution can be applied sparingly with a soft brush, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Soles: Clean the rubber soles with a damp cloth or a specialized shoe cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, as this can degrade the materials. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a breathable shoe bag, to maintain their shape and prevent dust accumulation.
