3. The genuine sole has a 6-pointed star diagonally above the Conserve logo, while the imitation has a 5-pointed star. The fake ones are even more fake and have ordinary rubber soles without even a LOGO.

Shoe body

CONVERSE shoes are mainly made of canvas, cowhide and PU made. Canvas shoes are made of canvas or fine mesh with the highest density and best texture, making them durable. The cowhide is made of high-quality cow head leather. The leather is relatively smooth, high-quality, durable and easy to care for. Basketball shoes and casual shoes are made of imported PU, which is waterproof. In order to save costs, fine imitations use domestically produced low-quality PU, which has a pungent and unpleasant leather smell and is prone to breakage. CONVERSE is also one of the few brands in the shoe category that does not contain the harmful chemical ingredient formaldehyde.

Shoelaces

Here’s how we look at it Oh: The cotton content of genuine shoelaces is very high. You can untie the shoelaces of genuine shoes. After they are naturally straightened, they can be stretched again. When they are stretched to the longest, the shoelaces will automatically stretch as soon as we relax. shrink!

Shoe upper

2. The logo on the back of the heel is concave and convex, and it fits the upper of the shoe very well. This is due to the precision of the shoe machine!

3. The outsole of real shoes is edged with linen, and the outsole is layered, with a distinct sense of layering. Fake shoes have few layers and no layering.

Maintenance methods

When maintaining canvas shoes, pay attention to the following points:

1) After cleaning, place them in a ventilated and cool place to dry naturally, and do not expose them to the scorching sun. Dry or bake in a high-temperature place to prevent gumming or degumming and accelerate aging.

2) Non-professional labor rubber shoes should not come into contact with chemicals such as acids, alkalis, and salts to avoid corrosion, degumming, and deformation.

3) When cleaning, the force should be gentle and even. Do not brush hard to avoid breaking the thread or brushing off the patterns and decorative parts of the shoe body.

4) Avoid contact with sharp objects to prevent scratches on the upper and body of the shoe.

5) For white canvas shoes, do not come into contact with items that are difficult to clean such as carbon ink. After cleaning the canvas shoes of this color, apply toothpaste or white chalk on the uppers and body of the shoes. Powder, be sure to apply it evenly, and then dry it to prevent discoloration. You can also find two pieces of clean white paper to cover the shoe body/tear off after drying to prevent discoloration.
