FAQs

Are these sneakers unisex?

Yes, while some models are marketed towards specific genders, the design is versatile and suitable for anyone looking for a platform leather high-top.

How do I determine my size?

These shoes follow standard UK sizing; refer to your previous Converse size as a benchmark, though leather models may have a slightly snugger initial fit.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended for leather trainers as it can damage the material and the adhesive binding the platform sole.

Does the platform sole make the shoe unstable?

The platform is designed with a wide, flat base to ensure stability during normal walking.

Is the leather upper water resistant?

While leather is more resistant to moisture than canvas, it is not waterproof. Avoid heavy rain to maintain the material's integrity.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff upon first wear

Wear them for short periods around the house with thicker socks to help soften the leather gradually.

Scuff marks on the white sole

Use a specialized rubber eraser or a mild soap solution with a soft brush to gently clean the white platform edges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Converse leather trainers last, follow these maintenance practices:

  1. Initial Setup: Ensure you have selected the correct UK size, as the structure of the leather may feel firmer than traditional canvas initially.
  2. Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For stubborn marks on the leather, use a mild leather cleaner appropriate for footwear.
  3. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading.
  4. Care Tip: If the shoes get wet, let them air dry naturally away from radiators or heat sources, which can damage the leather material.
