FAQs
Is the Converse Chuck 70 De Luxe Heel comfortable for all-day wear?
Yes, while the elevated heel adds a unique element, the shoes are designed with the comfort features of the Chuck 70 series. They may require a short break-in period to adapt to your foot, but many find them comfortable for extended use.
How high is the 'De Luxe Heel'?
Info needed: The exact heel height measurement for the 'De Luxe Heel' is not specified. However, it provides a noticeable, stylish lift above traditional flat Chuck 70s, designed for fashion rather than extreme elevation.
Are these shoes true to size?
Converse Chuck 70 models generally fit true to size. It's recommended to select your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider reviewing Converse's official sizing chart.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
The canvas material of these shoes is not waterproof. While they can withstand light drizzle, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions may lead to your feet getting wet and could potentially stain the canvas. We recommend avoiding heavy rain.
How do I clean the white rubber soles and toe cap?
The white rubber soles and toe cap can be effectively cleaned using a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap, or a dedicated sneaker cleaner. For tougher scuffs, a magic eraser or a soft brush can be used gently to restore their pristine look.
Are there other colors available in the De Luxe Heel series?
Yes, the Converse Chuck 70 De Luxe Heel series is available in several colors beyond this rich brown, including black, purple, and green, offering more options to match your personal style.
Troubleshooting
The elevated heel feels unfamiliar or causes slight discomfort.
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. Pairing them with slightly thicker socks can also help provide extra cushioning and adjustment.
Canvas material has developed stains or dirt marks.
For light marks, use a damp cloth with mild soap to gently spot clean. For more stubborn stains, a soft brush and a sneaker cleaning solution designed for canvas can be effective. Always air dry.
The shoelaces constantly come undone.
Try double knotting your laces. You can also experiment with different lacing techniques that provide a more secure hold, such as a surgeon's knot.
Shoes feel slightly too tight or uncomfortable after extended wear.
Ensure laces are not overtightened. Canvas shoes often stretch slightly with wear. If discomfort persists, consider trying a thinner sock or consulting a sizing guide.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup

- Casual Attire: Jeans, chinos, shorts, and t-shirts.
- Smart Casual: Midi skirts, flowy dresses, tailored trousers, and blazers.

Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Converse Chuck 70 De Luxe Heel High-Top Shoes:
- Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt or stains, use a soft brush or cloth dampened with mild soap and cold water. Gently scrub the affected area.
- Deep Cleaning: For more thorough cleaning, hand wash with a soft brush, mild detergent, and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the canvas and color.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, as this can cause shrinking or fading. You can stuff them with paper towels to help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Keep them upright to prevent creasing.
- Laces: Laces can be removed and hand-washed separately or replaced if needed.
