The upper is constructed from a heavy-duty 18oz cotton twill, providing durability and a premium feel.
The platform soles add significant height and a noticeable weight. While they offer a unique aesthetic, they may alter the balance and feel of the shoe compared to standard sneakers.
Yes, it is suitable for daily wear, especially for those who prioritize style. However, the avant-garde design elements like the platform and elongated tongue might require a period of adjustment for maximum comfort.
Clean the black canvas with a soft brush or cloth using mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals. For the rubber parts, a damp cloth or a magic eraser can be used carefully.
The TURBODRK tag on the elongated tongue is a signature element of the collaboration between Rick Owens and Converse, highlighting the 'DRKSHDW' sub-label and its edgy aesthetic.

The Converse Chuck Taylor 70 Rick Owens DRKSTR Black originally retailed for $165.
This is common with new, robust footwear. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow the materials to break in and conform to your feet.
Use a fine-tipped brush and a mild cleaning solution (like diluted soap and water) to gently clean the stitching. A magic eraser can also be effective for removing marks on rubber parts near the stitching.
Experiment with lacing techniques. Some users find that lacing through the extra eyelets near the ankle or adjusting the tightness of the laces can help secure the tongue better.
The platform is a design feature. Be mindful of your footing, especially on uneven surfaces, until you become accustomed to the added height and weight.
Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure you have selected the correct size before purchase. The initial wear may feel stiff due to the robust materials, but they will break in over time.
Compatibility: This model is unisex and designed for adult footwear. It pairs well with a wide range of casual and fashion-forward apparel. Consider the proportions of your outfit due to the platform sole and elongated tongue.
