FAQs
Are these leather trainers waterproof?
While the leather is more water-resistant than canvas, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
How do these compare to canvas All Stars?
These offer a more premium look, increased durability, and added padding, making them better suited for cooler weather and long-term wear.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, if the provided cushioned insoles wear out, they can typically be removed and replaced with third-party orthotics or inserts.
Do these fit true to size?
Converse shoes often run slightly large. If you are between sizes, many customers find that sizing down half a size provides a better fit.
How should I clean the rubber toe cap?
The white rubber toe cap can be cleaned effectively using a magic eraser or a simple mixture of baking soda and water on a soft brush.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull or loses its shine
Apply a high-quality leather cream or shoe polish in a neutral or black tone to restore moisture and luster.
Difficulty getting the shoes on
Loosen the laces down to the second or third eyelet to open the throat of the shoe before stepping in.
Creasing at the toe box
This is normal with leather footwear. To minimize, use cedar shoe trees when the shoes are not being worn to help them maintain their shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Converse leather trainers last, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of leather, avoid machine washing, which can damage the finish and the adhesive. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away dirt. For deeper stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner or conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. When lacing, ensure you pull the laces evenly across all eyelets to distribute pressure. If the shoes become damp, air-dry them away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to shrink or warp.
