Converse Run Star Hi - Black/White - UK 12

While inspired by rugged hiking boots, these shoes are primarily designed for casual wear and fashion. They offer good traction for urban environments but are not recommended for strenuous or technical hiking trails.

Converse Run Star Hi shoes generally run true to size. It's recommended to select your standard UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying both to ensure the best fit, especially given the high-top design.

The canvas upper and rubber sole offer some protection against light moisture, but these shoes are not waterproof. For heavy rain, we recommend wearing waterproof footwear to protect your feet and the shoes.

Yes, the exaggerated and thick rubber sole of the Run Star Hi model adds a noticeable amount of height, contributing to its distinctive silhouette and providing an elevated feel.

The main body of the shoe features a durable canvas upper, combined with a robust and distinctive rubber sole for comfort and traction.

Cleaning frequency depends on usage. For regular wear, light spot cleaning of the canvas and wiping down the sole after each use can help maintain their appearance. A deeper clean may be needed every few weeks or as visible dirt accumulates.

Check your lacing. Loosen the laces, especially over the top of the foot, to alleviate pressure. Ensure your socks are not too thick. If new, allow for a brief break-in period.

Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild dish soap, or a dedicated shoe sole cleaner. For tough scuffs, a 'magic eraser' sponge can be very effective in restoring the white finish. Clean regularly to prevent dirt buildup.

Spot clean using a soft brush or cloth with a mix of mild soap and water. Gently blot and rub, then wipe with a clean damp cloth. For more stubborn stains, consider a specialized canvas shoe cleaner. Always air dry.

While these shoes offer comfort, individual foot needs vary. Consider adding supportive insoles if you require additional arch support or cushioning for very long periods of standing or walking. Ensure laces are not too tight, restricting circulation.

This design feature is intentional. If you're new to shoes with thicker soles, allow some time to adjust to the different feel. Pair them with outfits that complement a bolder footwear choice, such as wider-leg pants or trousers.
