FAQs
Are these sneakers waterproof?
While the leather upper is more water-resistant than canvas, it is not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to prevent water from entering through the stitching.
How do I ensure I pick the right size?
Converse sneakers often run slightly large compared to other brands. If you are between sizes, many users prefer to size down by half a size.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them out for custom orthotics if you require additional arch support.
How do I keep the white leather looking new?
Regular maintenance with a leather conditioner and prompt removal of dirt using a damp cloth will keep the leather supple and clean.
Are these suitable for athletic activities?
These shoes are designed for lifestyle and casual wear, not for high-impact sports or intense gym activities.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff or tight upon first wear
Wear the shoes for short intervals indoors with thicker socks to gradually stretch and soften the leather.
Surface scuffs appearing on the white leather
Use a white leather eraser or a small amount of non-gel toothpaste on a soft cloth to gently buff out minor scuffs.
Rubber midsole discoloration
Clean the rubber sidewalls with a mixture of baking soda and warm water using an old toothbrush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are low-top shoes, they pair well with both no-show socks for a sleek look or standard crew socks for a classic skater aesthetic.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth after each wear to remove dust.
- For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner or a mild soap solution.
- Avoid submerging the shoes in water or placing them in a washing machine, as this can damage the leather and adhesive bonds.
- Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking.
