FAQs
Does the Chuck 70 fit true to size?
Generally, Converse Chuck 70s run slightly large. Many users find that sizing down a half size provides the best fit.
Can I replace the Ortholite sockliner?
Yes, the sockliner is removable if you prefer to use your own custom orthotic inserts.
How do I protect the grey canvas?
You can apply a water and stain repellent spray suitable for canvas fabrics to help keep the material clean.
Are these suitable for sports?
While durable, these are lifestyle fashion sneakers and are not intended for high-intensity athletic activities like basketball.
What is the 'Egret' color?
Egret is a vintage-inspired off-white, creamy color that is characteristic of the classic Chuck 70 aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the shoe on
Fully unlace the top three eyelets to allow the canvas collar to open wider.
Midsole scuffs appearing
Gently scrub with a melamine foam sponge or a soft-bristled brush with mild soap.
Canvas getting wet or stained
Blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub, as this can push stains deeper into the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure the laces are fully loosened before sliding your foot into the shoe, as the high-top collar is rigid for support. Regarding compatibility, the Steel Gray tone pairs exceptionally well with dark denim or neutral-colored trousers. To maintain the appearance of your trainers, spot clean the canvas upper with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the rubber bonding. For the egret midsole, use a dedicated sneaker wipe or a soft brush to remove surface dirt and scuff marks regularly to keep the rubber looking fresh.
