FAQs

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the Converse Run Star Trainers, especially due to their suede components, are not waterproof. Exposure to heavy rain or submerging them in water can cause damage. We recommend avoiding wet conditions where possible.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, particularly the suede and the shoe's structure. Please follow the spot cleaning care instructions provided in this guide.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of suede and nylon, offering a balance of premium feel, durability, and breathability.

Are these suitable for sports or running?

While durable and comfortable for everyday wear, these are not designed as specialized performance running or sports shoes. They are best suited for casual activities, walking, and general daily use.

How do I clean the white accents?

For the white accents, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Gently wipe the area and then pat dry. Avoid harsh scrubbing that could damage the material.

What kind of socks should I wear with these?

These trainers are compatible with various sock types. For optimal comfort and breathability, we recommend wearing athletic or casual socks made from moisture-wicking materials.

Where is the Converse star chevron logo located?

The signature Converse star chevron logo is prominently displayed on the side of the trainer.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the laces. Loosen them for more room or tighten for a snugger fit. Ensure your socks are not too thick or thin for optimal comfort.

Suede portions look dirty or scuffed.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and revive the nap. For scuffs, a suede eraser can be effective. Always brush in one direction.

Trainer squeaks when walking.

Check if the insole has shifted; remove and reinsert it correctly. Sometimes, a small amount of baby powder under the insole can reduce friction and squeaking. If the squeak is from the sole, ensure it's clean and dry.

Unpleasant odour from trainers.

Remove insoles and air them out. You can sprinkle baking soda inside the trainers and let it sit overnight, then shake it out. Ensure trainers are fully dry after wear before storing.

Laces constantly come undone.

Ensure you are tying a proper knot (e.g., a double knot). Consider replacing worn-out laces if they are too slick to hold a knot effectively.

Care Instructions

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Converse Run Star Trainers, follow these care guidelines:

  • Uppers (Suede & Nylon): For general cleaning, gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For suede sections, use a specialized suede brush or eraser to remove scuffs and marks. For nylon, a damp cloth with mild soap can be used to wipe away surface dirt. Always allow to air dry away from direct heat.
  • Lining & Cushioning (Textile): These internal components can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure they are fully dry before wearing to prevent odour and mildew.
  • Sole (Rubber): Wipe the gum-coloured rubber sole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and maintain traction. For stubborn grime, a small amount of mild detergent can be used.
  • General Advice: Avoid machine washing or submerging the trainers in water, as this can damage the materials, especially the suede. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
