FAQs

What material are these trainers made from?

These Converse Run Star Trainers are primarily made with premium suede for the upper, combined with a durable gum sole.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, suede is not naturally waterproof. It is highly recommended to treat them with a suede protector spray and avoid wearing them in wet conditions to prevent damage and staining.

How do I clean my suede trainers?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and an eraser for scuffs. For stains, blot immediately and use a suede cleaner as directed. Always allow them to air dry naturally.

What size are these trainers?

This specific pair is a UK adult size 9. Please check the product details for other available sizes if you require a different fit.

Can these trainers be worn by anyone?

Yes, these Converse Run Star Trainers feature a unisex design, making them suitable for all adults.

What kind of sole do they have?

They feature a recognizable Run Star gum sole with a textured grip tread for durability and traction.

Are they suitable for running or sports?

While comfortable for everyday wear, these trainers are designed for casual use and styling rather than performance running or intense sports activities.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. Brush in one direction to even out the texture.

Visible dirt or scuffs on the suede

For light dirt, use a suede brush. For scuffs, gently rub with a suede eraser or a clean, soft pencil eraser. Follow up with brushing.

Water marks or liquid stains

Immediately blot any liquid with a clean, absorbent cloth. Do not rub. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent marks, a suede cleaner might be needed.

Trainers feel too snug or loose

Ensure you are wearing the appropriate socks. Adjust the lacing tightness. If still uncomfortable, verify the sizing against your usual fit, as individual foot shapes can vary.

Gum sole looks dirty or discolored

Clean the gum sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher marks, a soft-bristled brush can be used carefully. Avoid harsh chemicals on the sole.

Care Instructions for Suede Material

Proper care is essential to maintain the premium look and longevity of your suede trainers. Follow these guidelines:

  1. Protection: Before the first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray. Reapply periodically as directed by the product instructions.
  2. Cleaning Dust & Dirt: For light dirt or dust, use a suede brush to gently brush away debris in one direction. For stubborn spots, use an eraser designed for suede.
  3. Removing Stains: For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub. Allow to air dry completely, then gently brush. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions.
  4. Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or sunlight).
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.
  6. Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or stiff brushes not designed for suede, as these can damage the material.
