FAQs
What makes the Stüssy x Chuck 70 different from a standard Chuck 70?
The Stüssy collaboration features unique design elements such as specific Stüssy branding, raw/unpainted sidewalls, contrast stitching, and premium black hemp canvas, differentiating it from the standard Chuck 70 models.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the canvas upper is not waterproof. While the rubber sole offers some protection, they are not designed for wet conditions.
How should I clean the black canvas upper?
Gently clean the canvas with a soft brush or cloth using a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
What is the significance of the raw sidewalls?
The unvarnished foxing tape is a design choice that pays homage to the original hemp Chucks from the 1990s, giving the shoe a vintage and authentic aesthetic.
Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?
These are lifestyle sneakers designed for style and comfort, not for rigorous athletic activities. The vulcanized sole offers good grip for everyday walking.
What does 'UK 5.5' refer to?
UK 5.5 refers to the men's UK sizing standard for the shoe. This corresponds to a specific foot length within that sizing system.
When was this collaboration released?
The Converse x Stüssy Chuck 70 Hi collaboration was released in June 2022.
Troubleshooting
Discoloration on raw sidewalls
The unvarnished foxing is designed to have a raw look. Minor scuffs can be gently wiped with a damp cloth. Avoid excessive scrubbing.
Canvas appearing faded
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with mild soap and water. Consider using a fabric protector spray designed for canvas.
Soles are dirty
Use a damp cloth or a non-abrasive shoe cleaner specifically for rubber soles. A magic eraser can be effective for scuffs.
Fit feels too snug
Ensure you have chosen the correct size. Canvas and rubber can take some time to break in. Wearing with thinner socks might help initially.

Care Instructions:
