FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?

Yes, their durable construction and comfortable textile design make them well-suited for daily school wear, provided school dress codes allow for high-top trainers and the platform style.

Can my child play sports in these shoes?

These trainers are designed for casual fashion and everyday activities rather than high-performance sports. While durable, their platform design is not optimized for intense athletic activities like running or competitive sports.

How do I determine the correct size for my child?

These shoes are available in UK children's sizes. It's best to measure your child's foot length and refer to a standard Converse size chart if available, or try them on to ensure a comfortable fit.

Are the textile uppers waterproof?

No, the 100% textile uppers are not waterproof. They offer breathability but will get wet in rain or puddles. We recommend avoiding wet conditions or applying a protective spray if desired, though this is not typically advised by Converse for textile shoes.

What is the 'platform' feature, and will it make my child taller?

The 'platform' refers to the thicker sole and wedge heel, which adds a subtle amount of extra height compared to a traditional flat sole. It's primarily a style feature that also offers comfort and a distinctive look.

How do I prevent the laces from coming untied easily?

Ensure you are using a double knot when tying the laces. You can also look into specialized lacing techniques or friction laces designed to stay tied longer.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose or too tight

Adjust the lacing. Ensure laces are evenly tightened from the bottom upwards. For persistent fit issues, double-check the size against a foot measurement.

Discomfort or awkwardness with the platform sole

Allow for a break-in period. New shoes, especially with a different sole type, can feel unfamiliar. Ensure your child is wearing appropriate socks, and try wearing them for shorter periods initially.

Stains or dirt on the textile upper

Spot clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap. Gently rub the stain, then wipe with a clean damp cloth. Air dry. Avoid machine washing.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by air trapped between the insole and outsole, or by the shoe's material rubbing. Try sprinkling a small amount of baby powder under the insole if it's removable. Ensure laces are tied securely.

Setup and CompatibilityThese Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Move Platform trainers are straightforward to set up. Simply unlace them sufficiently, allow your child to slip their foot in, and then lace them up, ensuring they are snug but not too tight. A good fit allows for a thumb's width between the longest toe and the end of the shoe. They are compatible with standard children's UK sizes. The blue color family and unisex design make them a versatile addition to any child's wardrobe.## Care and MaintenanceTo keep your Converse trainers looking their best and extend their lifespan, follow these care instructions:- Cleaning Textile Uppers: For general dirt and scuffs, use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap. Gently rub the affected area, then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners which can damage the textile.- Spot Treatment: For tougher stains, a small amount of laundry detergent diluted in water can be applied directly to the stain with a soft brush, then rinsed thoroughly with a damp cloth.- Sole Care: The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth or soft brush to remove dirt and debris. For white rubber, a magic eraser can help remove scuff marks.- Drying: Always air dry shoes away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent material damage or warping. Never put them in a washing machine or dryer.- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
