FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, while designed for performance, the comfortable cushioning and supportive upper make them suitable for general active wear and everyday use for children.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Converse and measure your child's foot accurately. Ensure there is a little room for growth, but not so much that the shoe is loose.

Can these shoes be machine washed?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and adhesive. Hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap as instructed.

What is the benefit of the Nike Zoom Air unit?

The Nike Zoom Air unit provides responsive cushioning, offering a springy feel that helps absorb impact and enhance performance during dynamic movements.

How does the adaptive zipper work?

The adaptive zipper is located at the upper part of the shoe and allows for easy adjustment of the fit, ensuring a snug and secure feel for the child's ankle.

What surfaces is the radial traction best for?

The radial traction is designed to provide a firm grip on a variety of surfaces, including indoor courts, gym floors, and most outdoor playing areas.

Does this model come in other colors?

The Converse SHAI 001 is available in different colorways, including Grey and White, as detailed in the product listing and sibling variants.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is difficult to move

Ensure the zipper pull is aligned correctly and try zipping slowly. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite pencil lead rubbed on the zipper teeth can help lubricate it.

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the adaptive zipper further to create more space. Ensure the correct size has been selected, as fit can vary slightly.

Traction seems reduced

Clean the outsole of any debris or mud that may be stuck in the tread pattern. Ensure the surface being played on is clean.

Material appears creased or misshapen

Allow the shoes to air dry completely and reshape them by stuffing them with paper. Avoid storing them under heavy objects.
