FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Converse Chuck 70s generally run slightly large; many users prefer to go half a size down from their standard sneaker size.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No, you should never put Converse in the dryer, as the heat can melt the adhesive and damage the rubber.
Are these suitable for gym use?
While they are popular for lifting due to their flat soles, they do not provide the cushioning or support needed for running or high-impact activities.
Does the red colour fade?
Like all dyed canvas, the colour may fade slightly over time with prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and frequent washing.
Do these provide arch support?
The Chuck 70 has an improved footbed compared to base models, but it is relatively flat and does not feature dedicated orthopedic arch support.
Troubleshooting
Canvas becoming stained or dirty
Spot-clean with a damp cloth and mild soap; do not submerge in a washing machine.
Laces becoming frayed
Replace with standard flat cotton laces to maintain the classic aesthetic.
Rubber sidewall scuffing
Use a magic eraser or a damp sponge with mild soap to gently buff out scuff marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you receive your Chuck 70s, ensure they fit snugly but allow for natural toe movement. Since these are high-tops, you may choose to leave the top eyelets unlaced for a more relaxed feel or lace them to the top for extra ankle stability. To maintain their appearance, clean them regularly using a soft brush to remove loose dirt. If a deeper clean is needed, use a damp cloth with mild soap and gently spot-clean the canvas. Always let the shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the rubber components. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could affect the saturation of the red dye.
