FAQs

How do I determine the right size for my child?

Converse sizing can vary. It's recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it to the Converse size chart. If possible, try them on for the best fit.

Is the elevated sole heavy?

While it adds some weight compared to a standard flat sole, the EVA material (often used in Converse lift soles) is designed to be lightweight, offering comfort without excessive bulk.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, these leather trainers are not fully waterproof. While leather offers some resistance to light moisture, heavy rain or prolonged exposure to water should be avoided. A protective spray can enhance water resistance.

Can these be worn by boys?

While this specific variant is listed under "Female" in attributes, the style is generally considered unisex and can be worn by anyone who prefers the design.

What is the height of the elevated sole?

Info needed: [Exact platform height varies by model and size. Generally, Converse Lift soles add approximately 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5-3.8 cm) of height.]

How often should I clean the white leather?

For white leather, it's best to clean them as soon as dirt or scuffs appear to prevent stains from setting. Regular light wiping after each wear can help maintain their pristine look.

Troubleshooting

White leather shows dirt easily.

Regularly wipe down with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather cleaner and follow product instructions. Consider applying a stain-resistant spray.

Shoes feel uncomfortable or rub.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try different sock thicknesses. Laces can be adjusted for a more customized fit, looser or tighter in different areas.

Squeaking sound when walking.

Sometimes caused by moisture between the insole and outsole. Try sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole. If the squeak persists, it might be due to a loose component within the sole structure.

Laces frequently come untied.

Ensure you are using a secure knot (e.g., a double knot). Replace old, worn laces with new ones that have more friction.

Care

  1. Cleaning Leather: For light dirt, wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and a soft brush.
  2. Protecting Leather: Apply a leather protector spray before first wear and periodically to guard against stains and water damage.
  3. Drying: If wet, stuff with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to maintain shape.
