FAQs
How do I properly clean the suede upper?
Use a soft suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a specialized suede cleaner with a soft cloth, following the cleaner's instructions. Always allow to air dry completely.
Are these trainers suitable for all weather conditions?
The suede upper is not naturally water-resistant. We recommend avoiding wear in heavy rain or wet conditions. Consider using a suede protector spray for added resistance.
Can I use these for intense sports activities or running?
The Converse Run Star Trainer is designed as a sports-inspired lifestyle shoe. While suitable for light activities and casual wear, it is not engineered for high-impact sports or extensive running.
What materials are used in the construction?
The trainers feature a 100% suede upper, 100% textile lining, 100% textile cushioning, and a 100% rubber sole.
How do I ensure the best fit?
These trainers use standard adult UK sizing. For the most comfortable fit, adjust the lace-up fastening to your foot's width and arch. If you are between sizes, consider trying both or consulting a size guide.
Will the brown color fade over time?
Like all colored suede, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause some fading. Storing your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct light will help preserve their color.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty.
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush. For stubborn marks, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.
Trainers feel uncomfortable or too tight.
Ensure laces are adjusted evenly across the foot. Try wearing them with different sock thicknesses. Over time, the textile lining will conform slightly to your foot.
Laces frequently come undone.
Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot. Replace worn laces if they are too slick or stretched.
Slipping on smooth surfaces.
Check the rubber sole for dirt or debris and clean it. Ensure the sole isn't overly worn, which can reduce traction.
Odor develops inside the trainers.
Allow trainers to air out after each wear. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside overnight to absorb odors. Ensure socks are clean.

Given the suede upper, proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers.
- Cleaning Suede:

- For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner according to its instructions. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Avoid harsh scrubbing, which can damage the suede.
- Protection: Apply a suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter to help repel water and stains.

- Sole Care: Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and maintain traction.
