FAQs

What materials are the Converse Run Star Trainers made from?

These trainers feature a flexible nylon upper complemented by durable suede overlays, along with an iconic thick rubber sole and CX foam cushioning.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

While the nylon upper offers some flexibility, fit can vary. It's recommended to try them on to ensure comfort, especially if you typically require wider footwear. Info needed: Specific width details are not available.

How do I clean the white parts of my trainers?

For white nylon, gently spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For white suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush. For the rubber sole, use warm water, mild soap, and a brush.

Can I wear these trainers for running or sports?

The Converse Run Star Trainers are designed with a 'sport-meets-style' aesthetic, focusing on comfort and everyday wear. While they offer good traction, they are generally not recommended for high-performance running or intense athletic sports.

Are they true to size?

Converse sizing can sometimes differ slightly. We recommend checking a size guide or trying them on if possible to ensure the best fit. This variant is a UK 7.5.

What makes the CX foam cushioning special?

CX foam cushioning is engineered for unmatched comfort, providing soft, responsive support that adapts to your foot, making the trainers comfortable for extended periods of wear.

Is there a warranty included with these trainers?

Info needed: Please refer to the retailer's or manufacturer's warranty policy for details on coverage and duration.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

This is common with new footwear. Wear them for short periods at first to break them in. The CX foam cushioning and materials will adapt to your foot over time.

Suede looks matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede, lifting any flattened fibers and removing surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner as per product instructions.

White parts of the trainers are scuffed or discoloured

For rubber soles, use a damp cloth with mild soap or a magic eraser. For white nylon areas, gently spot clean with a diluted mild detergent. For white suede, use appropriate suede cleaning products.

Squeaking noise when walking

Squeaking can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole and sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder underneath it. If the squeak persists, it might be a sole issue, which typically resolves with more wear.

Trainers get wet in rain

Allow them to air dry naturally, stuffed with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Do not use direct heat. Consider applying a water-repellent spray for future protection, especially for the suede elements.

Care

Proper care is essential to maintain the premium look and longevity of your trainers, especially given their nylon upper and suede overlays.

General Cleaning Tips:

  1. Remove Loose Dirt: Use a soft brush or dry cloth to gently brush off any loose dirt or dust from the nylon and suede surfaces.
  2. Spot Clean Nylon: For nylon areas, use a mild soap mixed with cool water. Dampen a clean cloth with the solution and gently wipe the affected areas. Avoid saturating the fabric.
  3. Care for Suede: Suede requires special attention. Use a dedicated suede brush to lift dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Clean Rubber Sole: The thick rubber sole can be cleaned with warm water, mild soap, and a brush (like an old toothbrush) to scrub away grime.
  5. Air Dry: After cleaning, always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials.

Do Not:

  • Machine wash or machine dry your trainers.
  • Use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Submerge them in water.

Protection Tips:

  • Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for footwear. This can help protect both the nylon and suede from moisture and spills. Always follow the product's instructions.
  • Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
