FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard Converse sizing conventions. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for a snug or roomier fit.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Washing machines can damage the vulcanized bond between the sole and the upper. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is preferred.
Is the OrthoLite insole removable?
Yes, the OrthoLite insole can typically be removed if you need to air them out or replace them with custom orthotics.
What materials are used for the upper?
The upper is constructed from durable cotton canvas, consistent with the classic Chuck Taylor construction.
Does this shoe provide arch support?
The OrthoLite cushioning provides basic underfoot support, but it is not a technical performance shoe with structured arch correction.
Troubleshooting
Laces constantly coming untied
Due to the wider flat lace design, ensure a double knot is used to secure the tension throughout the day.
Visible scuffs on rubber sole
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a magic eraser sponge with minimal water to remove black marks from the vulcanized sides.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Chuck Taylor Throwback Ox trainers in peak condition, ensure you properly lace them upon first wear to match your foot width, as the wide laces are a key stylistic feature. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry surface dirt from the cotton canvas. If deep cleaning is required, gently wipe with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution, avoiding harsh machine washing which can compromise the glue on the rubber foxing. Always allow your shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the canvas from stiffening or the rubber from warping.
