FAQs
Are these shoes heavy due to the platform?
No, the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Move Platform is specifically designed with an ultralight platform, providing elevation without adding significant weight, making them comfortable for everyday wear.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
The canvas upper is not waterproof. While light drizzle might be fine, prolonged exposure to rain or wet conditions is not recommended, as it can soak the canvas and potentially damage the shoes.
How do I find the correct size?
Converse sizing can vary. It's best to consult the official Converse size chart and compare your foot measurements. If possible, try them on, as personal fit preference is crucial for comfort, especially with high-tops.
Do these shoes provide good arch support?
Like many classic Chuck Taylor designs, these shoes typically offer minimal built-in arch support. For individuals requiring more arch support, custom insoles or orthotics can be added, provided there is enough space within the shoe.
What is the best way to clean the white rubber toe cap and platform?
For the rubber components, a damp cloth with mild soap is usually effective for general dirt. For more stubborn scuffs or marks, a magic eraser can work wonders. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the rubber.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff, especially around the ankle.
The canvas and high-top design may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house or on light errands. Loosening the top laces slightly can also help initially.
The platform feels unstable or unusual.
Adjusting to a platform sole can take time. Practice walking on different surfaces to get accustomed to the elevated feel. Ensure laces are tied securely to prevent your foot from shifting inside the shoe.
Canvas appears dirty or stained.
Spot clean the affected area using a small amount of mild soap diluted in water and a soft cloth or brush. Gently scrub the stain, then wipe away any soap residue with a clean, damp cloth. Air dry completely.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Check if the laces are too tight or if the tongue is rubbing. Sometimes, putting a small amount of baby powder under the insole can reduce friction between components. Ensure your socks are not causing friction against the shoe's interior.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Lacing: Unlace the shoes sufficiently to easily slide your foot in. Ensure your foot is comfortably seated. Begin lacing from the bottom eyelets, pulling snugly but not too tightly through each pair of eyelets. Tie a secure knot or bow.
- Initial Wear: Wear them for short periods initially to allow the canvas to soften and conform to your foot, especially around the ankle.
Compatibility

- Apparel: These high-tops are highly versatile, complementing everything from casual denim and leggings to dresses and skirts. Their grey color provides a neutral base for diverse fashion choices.
Care
- Cleaning the Canvas: For light dirt, use a soft brush to gently remove loose debris. For stains, spot clean with a mild soap (like dish soap) mixed with water and a soft cloth or toothbrush. Gently rub the stained area, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning the Platform Sole: Wipe the rubber platform with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and scuffs. A magic eraser can be effective for stubborn marks.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the canvas and rubber.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration and material degradation.
