FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Comme des Garcons Play x Converse Chuck Taylors, especially the '70 models, often run large. It is recommended to check the specific sizing chart and potentially size down half a size from your usual athletic shoe size.

What material are the uppers made of?

The uppers are typically made of durable canvas, a hallmark of the Chuck Taylor All Star line.

How do I clean the Black Heart logo?

The logo should be cleaned gently. Use a damp cloth and avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners to prevent damage or fading.

Can these be worn in wet weather?

While the rubber sole offers some protection, the canvas upper is not waterproof and can be easily stained by water and mud. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.

What is the difference between Chuck 70 and standard Chuck Taylors?

The Chuck 70 series features premium materials, enhanced cushioning (like an OrthoLite insole), higher rubber foxing, and a vintage-inspired look compared to the standard Chuck Taylor All Star models.

Is this a unisex shoe?

While listed with a gender attribute, the Chuck Taylor All Star silhouette is widely considered unisex and is often worn by all genders.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels off

Compare your foot measurements to the brand's sizing chart. Consider that Chuck Taylors often run a half to a full size larger than other brands. If possible, try on a pair in person or consult reviews for sizing advice specific to this collaboration.

Canvas gets dirty easily

Spot clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaner formulated for canvas. Protect with a fabric protector spray if desired.

Rubber sole discoloration

Use a magic eraser or a specialized sole cleaner to remove scuffs and yellowing. Ensure the cleaner is suitable for rubber.
