FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, though users often find they have a slightly generous fit in length.
Can I put my Converse in the washing machine?
It is not recommended, as heat and harsh detergents can damage the materials and the adhesives holding the sole together.
Are these trainers suitable for gym use?
While they are popular for weightlifting due to their flat, stable soles, they lack the cushioning and support required for running or high-impact activities.
How do I prevent the red colour from fading?
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and store them in a shaded, dry area when not in use.
Is the material waterproof?
No, these are standard lifestyle trainers. It is advisable to use a suede or fabric protector spray to add a light layer of water resistance.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the rubber toe cap
Use a magic eraser or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently buff away scuffs and stains.
Shoes feel too flat for long walks
Consider adding an aftermarket orthotic insole to provide the extra arch support needed for extended periods on your feet.
Suede material looking dull
Gently use a suede brush to restore the nap and lift away surface debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Converse trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you are selecting the correct UK adult size. As a canvas or suede shoe, they may feel slightly snug initially but often contour to the foot with regular wear.
- Maintenance: If your variant is made of suede, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt. Avoid getting them excessively wet, as water can damage the suede texture.
- Cleaning: For the rubber soles, a simple wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap is usually sufficient to maintain the crisp look.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the red colour from fading over time.
