Featuring high-grade canvas and an upgraded internal build, they provide a durable daily footwear option for casual wear; however, users should note that the specific heavy-grade canvas requires a brief break-in period to reach optimal comfort levels.

FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is recommended to avoid machine washing as it can damage the heavy-grade canvas and the adhesive on the rubber soles; spot cleaning is the best practice.

Do these fit differently than the standard Chuck Taylor All Star?

Yes, the 70 series features a slightly roomier toe box and more substantial cushioning, generally resulting in a more comfortable fit for most wearers.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The roomier toe box design makes them more accommodating for wider feet than standard thin-canvas variants, though they are still classified as a standard-width silhouette.

How do I keep the grey canvas looking fresh?

Keep them out of direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent UV fading and use a soft bristle brush to remove surface dust after each wear.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles in the All Star 70 are designed to work with the shoe's structure, but they can generally be removed if you need to insert specialized orthotics.

Troubleshooting

The canvas feels too stiff or restrictive

Wear the shoes with slightly thicker socks for the first few outings and ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension to allow the material to flex.

Rubber foxing showing signs of discoloration

Gently clean the rubber with a mixture of baking soda and water using an old toothbrush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable heavy-grade canvas construction
  • Improved arch and heel cushioning
  • Classic 1970s aesthetic details
  • Roomier fit for better toe comfort

Cons

  • Requires a break-in period for the canvas
  • Lacks advanced technical arch support features
  • Not suitable for high-intensity athletic activities

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers fit true to size, but the thicker canvas construction may feel stiff initially. To break them in, wear them for short periods at home before heading out for a full day. To maintain the grey finish, avoid machine washing; instead, spot-clean the canvas with a soft brush and mild soap. Ensure the rubber foxing is wiped down with a damp cloth periodically to prevent dirt buildup in the textured grooves. Store them in a cool, dry place to prevent the canvas from fading or the rubber from yellowing over time.
