FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash your Converse shoes, as it can damage the canvas and the rubber bonding.
How does the All Star Hi 70 differ from the regular All Star?
The '70s version features higher rubber foxing, extra cushioning, and heavier-grade canvas compared to the standard model.
Is the sage green color prone to fading?
Like all dyed canvas, the color may fade if consistently exposed to direct sunlight for long periods. Store in a shaded area.
Do I need to spray these with a water repellent?
While not required, a fabric-safe water repellent spray can help protect the canvas from light stains and moisture.
What is the best way to lace these high-tops?
Many users prefer skipping the top eyelet to allow for better ankle mobility and a more relaxed fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff when new
Gently flex the sole by hand and wear them with thick socks around the house to help soften the canvas.

Use a specialized sneaker cleaning eraser or a mixture of baking soda and water applied with a soft toothbrush to lift surface dirt.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Converse All Star Hi 70s stay in peak condition, consider the following maintenance tips:
- Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the heavy canvas to soften to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a damp cloth and mild soap to spot-clean the canvas. Avoid fully submerging them in water, as this can affect the glue integrity.
- Rubber Maintenance: The white rubber foxing can be kept clean by using a dedicated sneaker eraser or a soft brush with soapy water.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the green dye from fading over time.
- Sizing: These shoes generally fit true to size for UK 6.5, but due to the structured canvas, consider wearing your standard thickness socks during the first few wears.
