FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Many users find Converse Chuck 70s to run slightly large. It is often recommended to try a half-size down from your usual sneaker size.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the vulcanised sole and the canvas structure.
How does the Chuck 70 differ from the regular Chuck Taylor All Star?
The Chuck 70 features premium canvas, a thicker rubber sidewall, and an upgraded OrthoLite insole for better comfort and durability.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the OrthoLite insole is generally removable, allowing for the use of custom orthotics if preferred.
What is the 'egret' colour?
Egret is a soft, off-white or cream tone that gives the midsole a vintage, aged appearance.
Troubleshooting
Canvas becoming dirty or stained
Use a soft brush and mild soap to gently scrub the affected area. Avoid submerging the entire shoe.
Rubbing or discomfort at the heel
Ensure you are wearing the correct size and consider using a heel liner or thicker socks during the break-in period.
Scuffs on the rubber midsole
Clean the rubber sidewalls using a damp melamine foam sponge (magic eraser) for quick results.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Superior all-day comfort due to OrthoLite technology
- Timeless design that pairs easily with most outfits
- Enhanced durability from reinforced stitching and higher rubber sidewalls
- High-quality construction materials for longevity
Cons
- Canvas material can be susceptible to staining
- The low-top silhouette provides less ankle support than high-top versions
- Sizing can sometimes run slightly larger than standard athletic brands
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature a classic canvas exterior, maintaining their appearance is straightforward but necessary. Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can weaken the glue and damage the canvas. Instead, spot clean with a mild soap and a soft brush or cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry away from direct sunlight, which can cause the black canvas to fade over time. For the rubber sidewalls, a standard magic eraser or soapy water works effectively to remove scuffs and maintain that signature 'egret' look. Always ensure your socks are compatible with a low-top silhouette to avoid discomfort around the heel collar.
