FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is generally recommended to hand-wash to prevent potential damage to the glue and rubber components.

Do these trainers provide good arch support?

They feature a flat sole design; while they have an OrthoLite insole for comfort, they do not offer significant orthopedic arch support.

How do I determine the right size?

Converse trainers typically run true to size, but the canvas upper will stretch slightly to accommodate the shape of your foot.

Can I wear these in the rain?

The canvas material is porous and will soak up water, so they are not recommended for wet weather conditions.

What is the material composition?

The upper is made of durable canvas, while the sole is constructed from vulcanized rubber.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the OrthoLite insoles are typically removable if you wish to use your own custom orthotics.

Troubleshooting

Canvas becoming discoloured

Spot clean with a mixture of water and mild detergent using a soft-bristled brush.

Insole losing cushioning

Remove the factory OrthoLite insole and replace it with a third-party insert if more arch support is required.

Laces fraying over time

Replace with standard flat cotton laces to maintain the classic aesthetic.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable canvas material holds up well to daily use
  • Updated OrthoLite insole significantly improves underfoot comfort
  • Classic style that remains a versatile wardrobe staple
  • Easy to clean and maintain
  • Lightweight feel despite the high-top construction

Cons

  • Minimal arch support may not be suitable for long-distance walking
  • Canvas material is not naturally waterproof
  • High-top design requires more time to lace up than slip-on styles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your trainers, it is recommended to treat the canvas with a fabric protector spray before the first wear to repel dirt. If the shoes become soiled, hand-wash them using a mild soap and a soft brush, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, which can warp the rubber. When lacing, ensure the tongue is centered to prevent friction against the ankle. These shoes generally run true to size, though the canvas will slightly contour to your foot shape over time.
