FAQs

Are these shoes unisex?

Yes, the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Ox is designed as a unisex product suitable for all genders.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather and the rubber construction. We recommend manual cleaning with a damp cloth.

Do these provide good arch support?

These shoes feature a flat, traditional sneaker design with an OrthoLite insole for comfort, but they do not provide significant orthopedic arch support.

How should I clean the black leather?

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. You can also use a leather-specific conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.

What is the heel height?

The heel height is approximately 1cm or 0.5 inches.

Are they true to size?

Converse Chuck Taylors typically run slightly large; many users find they prefer a half-size down from their standard athletic shoe size.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing the shoes to help maintain their shape.

Stiff fit during first use

Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot.

Dirt on the white rubber sole

Use a magic eraser or a mixture of mild soap and warm water with a soft cloth to restore the brightness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure longevity, treat your leather sneakers with a quality leather protector spray before first use. Compatibility is high, as the black finish works with denim, chinos, or casual skirts. When cleaning, wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth and use a soft brush or sponge for the rubber toe cap and sole. Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the adhesive and the leather material. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking.
