FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Converse Chuck 70s generally run slightly large. If you are between sizes, many users prefer sizing down by half a size for a more secure fit.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

It is highly recommended to avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the adhesive and the shape of the canvas.

Is the canvas material water-resistant?

No, the cotton canvas is porous. It is recommended to use a protective water-repellent spray if you intend to wear them in damp conditions.

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

The Chuck 70 features heavier-grade canvas, a higher rubber foxing, and upgraded, more comfortable cushioning compared to the standard All-Star model.

How do I keep the white rubber toe cap looking new?

Regular maintenance with a soft damp cloth after each wear prevents dirt from settling into the texture of the rubber.

Are these suitable for sports?

While originally basketball shoes, modern Chuck 70s are designed for lifestyle wear and do not provide the stability or impact protection required for professional sports.

Troubleshooting

Canvas becoming stained

Use a specialized canvas cleaner or a gentle mixture of soap and water with a soft cloth. Never submerge the shoes in water.

Rubber midsole discoloration

Use a white eraser or a damp magic eraser sponge to gently scrub off scuff marks and dirt from the rubber surfaces.

Insole comfort decreasing

The Ortholite insoles can be removed and aired out to refresh them, or replaced with third-party inserts if additional arch support is needed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile low-top design suitable for various outfits
  • Durable canvas material for long-lasting use
  • Ortholite insole improves step-in comfort compared to standard sneakers
  • Distinctive collaboration branding
  • Classic styling that remains relevant across seasons

Cons

  • Minimal arch support inherent in classic Chuck 70 construction
  • Light-colored midsole can show scuffs more easily
  • Cotton canvas requires specific cleaning to avoid water staining

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Chuck 70 trainers last, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the canvas material. For cleaning, use a soft-bristle brush to remove dry dirt from the canvas. For stubborn stains, spot clean with a mild soap solution and a damp cloth; avoid soaking the shoes or machine washing them, as this can compromise the glue bonding the rubber midsole to the upper. If the insoles become compressed after extended use, they are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics for a more personalized fit.
