FAQs

What makes the Converse Rick Owens DRKSHDW DRKSTAR Chuck 70 unique?

This trainer is a collaboration between Converse and Rick Owens' DRKSHDW line, featuring a distinctive waxed cotton upper, an elongated tongue, and signature DRKSHDW design elements on the classic Chuck 70 silhouette.

How do I clean the waxed cotton upper?

It is recommended to spot clean the waxed cotton upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or submerging the shoe in water. Allow it to air dry naturally.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The Chuck 70 series generally offers a medium fit. While the soft canvas interior provides some flexibility, individuals with very wide feet may want to consider trying them on if possible or checking specific sizing guides.

What is the main benefit of the soft canvas interior?

The soft canvas interior is designed to provide comfort during wear and helps to prevent blisters, making the trainers more comfortable for extended periods.

When was this collaboration first released?

This collaboration was first released on February 22, 2022.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the waxed cotton upper, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe.

What does 'DRKSTAR' signify in the product name?

'DRKSTAR' refers to the specific iteration and design modifications within the Rick Owens DRKSHDW collaboration, distinguishing it from standard Chuck 70 models.

Troubleshooting

Discoloration on waxed cotton

Gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp, clean cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture.

Creasing on the upper

Minor creasing is natural with waxed cotton. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and store with shoe trees or stuffers.

White toe cap scuff marks

Use a clean eraser or a specialized sneaker cleaning solution designed for white rubber to gently remove scuffs.
