FAQs

How do I clean my Chuck 70 De Luxe Heel shoes?

For basic cleaning, gently wipe the canvas with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning, use a soft brush with a solution of warm water and mild detergent. Always air dry away from direct heat.

Are these shoes true to size?

Converse sizes can sometimes vary. It is generally recommended to refer to the Converse size guide if you are unsure, or try them on to ensure the best fit.

Can I wear these in rainy weather?

The canvas material is not waterproof. While light rain might be fine, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended as it can lead to water damage and staining. Consider weather-proofing sprays for added protection, though they won't make them fully waterproof.

What makes the 'De Luxe Heel' different from regular Chuck 70s?

The 'De Luxe Heel' features a unique, distinctively designed and elevated heel compared to the traditional flat sole of standard Chuck 70s. This adds a fashion-forward element and a slightly different silhouette.

Are these shoes comfortable for all-day wear?

As part of the Chuck 70 series, they offer enhanced comfort compared to classic Chuck Taylors. However, the unique heel design might provide a different feel. Comfort for all-day wear can be subjective, and it's best to try them on and break them in for optimal comfort.

What type of socks should I wear with these high-tops?

You can wear a variety of socks, including crew socks that extend above the shoe collar for a classic look, or no-show socks if you prefer a 'sockless' appearance while still protecting your feet and footwear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff or uncomfortable initially.

The canvas material often needs a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house, or with thicker socks, to help the material soften and conform to your feet.

Canvas appears dirty or stained.

Spot clean immediately using a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For tougher stains, use a soft brush and a mixture of warm water and mild detergent, then air dry.

Laces constantly come untied.

Ensure you are double-knotting your laces. You can also try different lacing techniques that provide a more secure fit.

My feet get too warm/sweaty in the shoes.

Wear moisture-wicking socks made from cotton or bamboo blends. Ensure shoes are thoroughly aired out between wears to prevent odor buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Care

Proper care will extend the life and look of your Converse Chuck 70 De Luxe Heel:

  1. Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt and scuffs, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) and gently rub the affected area. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand or in a mesh bag in a washing machine.
  3. Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  4. Deep Cleaning (Canvas): For deeper cleaning, mix warm water with a small amount of mild detergent. Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) to scrub the canvas gently. Rinse thoroughly with clean water, avoiding soaking the shoe.
  5. Sole Cleaning: Use a brush or old toothbrush with soap and water to clean the rubber soles and the distinctive heel.
