FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Chuck 70s often run slightly large. If you are between sizes, many users prefer to go down half a size.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash your Chuck 70s as it can damage the glue and canvas material. Hand cleaning is best.

Do these provide arch support?

They feature an upgraded cushioned footbed that is more supportive than basic models, but they are not categorized as orthopedic shoes.

Is this a unisex model?

Yes, the Converse Chuck 70 is a unisex trainer designed for adults.

How do I keep the red canvas from fading?

Keep the shoes out of prolonged direct sunlight when not in use and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Laces becoming undone frequently

Use a double knot or replace with slightly textured cotton laces for better friction.

Accumulation of dirt on the white rubber foxing

Use a specialized rubber eraser or a cloth dipped in a mixture of baking soda and water to gently scrub the sidewalls.

Internal canvas stiffening

Wearing the shoes for short periods with thick socks will help break in the material and soften the structure over time.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic, timeless design that fits many styles
  • Superior comfort compared to standard Chuck Taylor models
  • Sturdy construction with high-quality materials
  • Bold, vibrant aesthetic
  • Unisex design suitable for all

Cons

  • Canvas material can show dirt easily
  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic activities
  • Limited arch support compared to dedicated technical running shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are lace-up sneakers, setup involves adjusting the laces to your desired tension for a secure fit. To ensure compatibility, verify your UK size against the 8.5 specification before purchase, as Converse sizing can sometimes run slightly larger than standard dress shoes. For care, it is recommended to spot clean the canvas uppers using mild soap and a soft-bristled brush. Avoid machine washing, which can compromise the structural integrity of the rubber foxing and glue. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping or discoloration.
