FAQs

What material are the Converse Ballet Lace Slip Trainers made of?

The uppers, lining, and cushioning are made of 100% textile. The sole is made of 100% rubber.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

These trainers are designed for casual, everyday wear and do not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for running or high-impact sports.

How should I clean the navy fabric upper?

Gently clean the textile upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. Allow the trainers to air dry away from direct heat.

What is the heel height of these trainers?

These trainers feature a flat heel, providing a low-profile and comfortable feel.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the rubber sole offers some protection, the textile upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions and should be avoided in heavy rain.

What does the 'Ballet Lace Slip' in the name signify?

It refers to the shoe's silhouette, which is inspired by ballet flats but made in a trainer style, and its convenient slip-on fastening mechanism.

How do I know if I have the correct size?

The trainers should feel snug but not uncomfortably tight. There should be a little room at the toe, and the heel should not slip excessively when walking. Refer to the size chart if unsure.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight on first wear.

Textile uppers often stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them around the house for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet. Using thicker socks during this initial breaking-in period can also help.

Color transfer from the navy fabric.

New textiles can sometimes have excess dye. If color transfer is observed, ensure feet are dry when wearing. A fabric protector spray specifically designed for textiles might help, but test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid wearing with light-colored socks until color transfer is no longer an issue.

Soles becoming slippery.

Ensure the rubber soles are clean and free from mud or debris. For significant loss of traction, inspect the sole for excessive wear. Lightly scuffing the sole on rough surfaces can sometimes restore grip, but if the tread is worn down, replacement might be necessary.

Difficulty slipping trainers on.

Ensure the heel is fully relaxed. Gently pull the trainer on, using the back of the heel for leverage. If the fit is consistently tight, consider if this is the correct size or if the shoe's design inherently runs narrow for your foot.

  • Embraces the popular 'sneakerina' trend.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no assembly; they are ready to wear straight out of the box.

Compatibility: Designed for adult females, these trainers are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, skirts, and casual dresses. They are best suited for standard foot sizes within the UK 6.5 range.

Care:

  • Uppers: Clean the 100% textile upper gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners which can damage the fabric.
  • Sole: Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and scuffs. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Lining: If the textile lining becomes soiled, spot clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry completely. Do not machine wash.
  • Drying: Always air dry trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can cause the materials to shrink or fade.
