FAQs
What does 'De Luxe Heel' mean?
The 'De Luxe Heel' refers to a specific design enhancement on the heel area of the shoe, offering a more refined or unique aesthetic compared to standard Chuck 70 models. This detail elevates the shoe's overall look.
Are these shoes true to size?
Converse Chuck 70s generally run true to size for most adults. However, if you are between sizes, some users find sizing down half a size can provide a snugger fit. It's recommended to consult a Converse size guide if you are unsure.
Can I wear these Chuck 70s in the rain?
The canvas material of these shoes is not waterproof. Wearing them in the rain or wet conditions may cause your feet to get wet and could lead to staining or accelerated wear of the canvas. It's best to wear them in dry weather or use a water-repellent spray for canvas.
How do I prevent the laces from coming undone?
Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot. You can also try different lacing techniques like the 'surgeon's knot' or 'friction knot' which are known for being more secure than standard knots.
What is the best way to clean the white rubber foxing and toe cap?
For best results, use a magic eraser or a soft cloth with a small amount of mild soap and water. You can also try a dab of non-gel toothpaste on a brush for stubborn scuffs. Wipe clean with a damp cloth afterward.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
Converse Chuck 70s are often described as having a moderately narrow fit. While they may stretch slightly over time due to the canvas material, individuals with wider feet might find them snug initially. Trying them on is recommended if possible.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
This is normal for new canvas shoes. Wear them for short periods over a few days to 'break them in.' The canvas will soften and conform to your foot shape with wear.
Canvas appears dirty or stained
Spot clean immediately using a soft brush or cloth with a mixture of mild soap and lukewarm water. For tougher stains, a specialized canvas shoe cleaner can be effective. Avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent damaging the fabric.
Rubber sole or toe cap gets scuffed
Use a magic eraser or a damp cloth with a small amount of toothpaste (non-gel) to gently rub away scuff marks on the white rubber areas. Rinse thoroughly afterwards.
Shoes develop an odor
Ensure shoes are fully dry after each wear. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Remove baking soda before wearing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
First Use
- Lacing: Unlace the shoes fully and then re-lace them to your preferred tightness. Ensure the laces are even on both sides to prevent discomfort.
- Initial Wear: Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the canvas to conform to your foot shape. This helps to 'break in' the shoes and enhance comfort.
Compatibility
- Outfits: These Chuck 70s are highly versatile, pairing well with a wide range of casual attire including denim, chinos, leggings, and even casual skirts or dresses. The high-top design can be worn with pant legs cuffed, tucked in, or over the top.
- Socks: For optimal comfort, wear with socks that extend above the ankle, such as crew socks or taller, to prevent rubbing against the canvas upper.
Care and Maintenance
- Regular Cleaning: For light dirt, gently wipe the canvas and rubber soles with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn stains on the canvas, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) with a mixture of mild soap and water. Scrub gently in small circular motions. Rinse the brush and wipe away excess soap.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Stuffing the shoes with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and material degradation.
- Avoid Washing Machine: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the canvas, rubber, and overall structure of the shoe.
- Water Protection: Consider applying a fabric protector spray designed for canvas shoes to help repel water and resist stains, especially if you anticipate wearing them in potentially damp environments.
