FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Lift Hi Platform Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and fashion. While durable, they are not intended for high-impact sports or athletic performance.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

These are junior trainers, specifically a UK 13 children's size. It's best to measure your child's foot and refer to Converse's official junior sizing chart to ensure the best fit.

Is the platform sole comfortable for daily wear?

Yes, the platform sole is designed for comfort and stability, providing a slight lift without compromising walkability. There might be a short adjustment period, but they are suitable for daily use.

Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to wash leather trainers in a washing machine, as it can damage the leather and adhesives. Always follow the care instructions for spot cleaning and hand washing.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper is made from sleek white leather, offering both durability and a clean, premium aesthetic.

How do I prevent the white leather from yellowing?

Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Regular cleaning helps prevent dirt buildup that can contribute to discoloration. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.

Troubleshooting

White leather appears dirty or scuffed.

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down regularly. For scuffs, gently rub with a magic eraser or a specialized white leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Laces frequently come undone.

Ensure you are using a secure double knot. If laces are worn, consider replacing them with new, durable shoelaces.

Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations around the house before extended use. The leather will soften and conform to the foot over time.

Outsole loses grip.

Clean the vulcanized rubber outsole thoroughly with warm water and a brush to remove embedded dirt and debris, which can reduce traction.

Care

Proper care will keep your white leather trainers looking fresh and extend their lifespan.

  • Initial Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray to guard against stains and water damage.
  • Daily Cleaning: Wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after each wear to remove surface dirt.
  • Spot Treatment: For tougher scuffs or stains, use a mild leather cleaner designed for white leather. Apply sparingly with a clean cloth and gently rub.
  • Outsole Care: Clean the vulcanized rubber outsole with a brush (like an old toothbrush) and mild soap and water to remove dirt and maintain traction.
  • Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuff them with paper towels to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
