FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the suede material is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is recommended to use a suede protector spray and avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
How should I clean the suede?
Regularly brush with a soft suede brush. Use a suede eraser for marks and a specialized suede cleaner for tougher stains. Always test cleaners on a hidden spot first.
What is the difference between Chuck 70 and standard Chuck Taylor All Stars?
The Chuck 70 series typically features higher quality materials, more cushioning (like a OrthoLite insole), a glossier rubber on the sole, and more durable stitching compared to standard Chuck Taylor All Stars.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
It is generally not advisable to wear suede trainers in wet conditions as they can easily stain and be damaged by water.
What kind of socks are best to wear with high-top trainers?
Ankle socks, crew socks, or even knee-high socks can be worn with high-top trainers. The choice often depends on personal preference and the outfit.
How do I store my suede trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree or stuffing them with acid-free paper can help maintain their shape.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears discolored or marked
Use a suede eraser for light marks. For deeper stains, consult a specialist suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Always test cleaners on a small, hidden area first.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Wearing thicker socks can also help during the break-in process.
Laces are worn or dirty
Replace laces with standard shoelaces. Many retailers offer replacement laces in various colors.
Sole is dirty
Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth.

Caring for suede requires attention to prevent damage and maintain appearance:
- Brushing: Regularly use a soft-bristled brush or a suede-specific brush to remove surface dirt and dust. Brush in one direction.
- Stain Removal: For minor stains, use a suede eraser. For tougher stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner, testing it on an inconspicuous area first.
- Protection: Apply a suede protector spray to help repel water and stains. Reapply periodically.
- Avoid Moisture: Minimize exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions, as water can stain and damage suede. If they get wet, stuff them with paper and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a dust bag, to prevent fading and damage.
