FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Converse sizing can vary. It's recommended to check the brand's specific size guide for the DRKSTAR model or try them on if possible. They are often compared to the Chuck 70 fit.

What material are they made of?

These shoes are typically made with a durable cotton canvas upper and a rubber sole, reflecting the classic Converse construction combined with Rick Owens' design elements.

How do I clean the black canvas?

Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt. For stubborn stains, a mild soap and water mixture applied with a cloth is recommended. Avoid soaking or machine washing.

Are these suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, they are built on the comfortable Chuck 70 platform, making them suitable for daily wear, particularly for casual and streetwear occasions.

Is this a limited edition collaboration?

Yes, the collaboration between Rick Owens and Converse is typically a limited edition release, meaning availability may be restricted.

What is the difference between this and a standard Converse shoe?

The main differences lie in the distinct Rick Owens DRKSHDW design elements, such as the exaggerated sole, unique lacing, and overall avant-garde aesthetic, setting them apart from standard Converse models.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels inaccurate.

Converse sizing can differ from other brands. Consult the size chart and consider trying them on if possible. Note that the DRKSTAR may have a slightly different fit due to its design.

Material appears creased or scuffed.

This can be a characteristic of the deconstructed aesthetic. For minor scuffs, a damp cloth may help. Avoid harsh cleaning agents that could damage the material.

Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied.

Ensure the laces are threaded evenly. You may need to tie them more tightly or use a double knot. Consider replacing the laces with a different material if preferred.
