FAQs

What makes the Chuck 70 different from the standard Chuck Taylor All Star?

The Chuck 70 features a higher quality canvas, a more durable rubber sole with better cushioning (OrthoLite insole), and a vintage-inspired design with features like thicker laces and a higher gloss on the sole.

How do I clean the red sole without smudging the canvas?

Use a separate cloth or brush for the red sole, applying mild soap and water. Clean the canvas separately with a different cloth or brush to prevent color transfer.

Is this shoe waterproof?

No, the canvas upper is not waterproof. While it can handle light moisture, it is not designed for heavy rain or wet conditions.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The standard Chuck Taylor All Star 70 fit can be considered medium width. Lacing adjustments can help accommodate slightly wider feet, but individuals with very wide feet may find them snug.

What is the collaboration with CDG PLAY?

CDG PLAY is a sub-label of Comme des Garçons. This collaboration merges CDG's avant-garde fashion sense with Converse's iconic sneaker heritage, often featuring the signature PLAY heart logo.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is generally not recommended to machine wash Converse sneakers, as it can damage the adhesive and materials. Hand washing is the preferred method for cleaning.

What is the origin date of this specific collaboration model?

This iteration of the CDG PLAY x Converse collaboration was unveiled on March 24, 2022.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the footbed. Try applying talcum powder under the insole or check if the laces are too tight.

Canvas appears dirty or stained

Gently clean the affected area with a soft brush or cloth using mild soap and cool water. For tougher stains, a specialized canvas cleaner might be necessary. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.

Fit feels too loose or too tight

Adjust the lacing to better suit your foot shape. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Refer to the Converse sizing guide if you suspect an incorrect size.

Red color from the sole bleeding onto other surfaces

This is rare, but possible with new shoes or in very wet conditions. Ensure the shoes are fully dry. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials when wet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

  • Sizing: Available in UK adult sizes. It's recommended to check Converse sizing charts for the most accurate fit, as Chuck Taylors can sometimes run large.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Canvas: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to gently clean the canvas upper. Avoid harsh chemicals.
